Smile Advice Needed Please

Hi all

I have been a lurker on this site for a number of years and and I have found it and all of you very useful.

I have attempted to use the redemption taxes calculator to check one of my questions myself - but I still need all you guy's expertise please.....

I have acheived the near impossible of getting a redemption thrrough ICC, but two things are concerning me about this redemption.
1) Last year when I also got the redemption tickets I was after the youg man was able to issue the tickets immediately and the ticket number was visible on Amadeus. Today I was told this would take 48hrs and whilst I can see the trip on check my trip - I am nervous that the tickets might get cancelled given some of the stories I have seen on here.

2) Routing was as follows:
O/B - MAN - MUC (LH), MUC - BKK (TG), BKK- SIN (SQ) in Business
I/B - SIN - BKK (TG), BKK LHR (TG) - in Business
The taxes were £515.80 each (!)
I have checked using "little voices" fare calculator with both tirps in as single trips and the taxes on that are considerably lower.
How do I go about
a) confirming the tickets are issued
b) Querying the taxes

Apologies now if this should go in an existing thread....
