Must say I'm getting less impressed with Emirates by the day. Maybe time to look for an alternative.
I would have simply hung up and called back. Same thing happened to me this week. I needed the miles to post to my account from the night before. They hadnt, called EK, was routed to India and I experienced the best agent I have ever had the pleasure of talking to. She posted the miles immediately and then went and had a supervisor release J seats for the upgrade award I wanted (DXB-JFK) for mid December.
