I got a call and email confirming my upgrade from Business to First at the end of last week .
I was told that there would be a tax difference payment that would need to be paid before the flight by the JP centre originally. This was not mentioned in the confirmation call, I dropped by to the Jet office to pay the tax on the JP upgrade. After a few phone calls and confriming with another person in the office by the receptionist, I was informed that because the ticket was Business going to First there would be no additional tax to pay, just the JP miles which have been redeemed.
Looks like the JP centre staff are not clear on whether there is or there is not tax to be paid.
Checked seatguru but there are no negatives listed on any 777 First class seat, unless anyone can advise avoiding a particular seat I've made a pre-allocation for the present time.
thanks for all the advice, I'm sure excited hope they don't revert and cancel the upgrade now only if could time travel
