But I suppose this is good if you're on an expensive stay, hence you'll earn much more than 500 miles. But it would've been better if they could have introduced a flexible miles scheme, but kept the 500 as a minimum mileage earning.
They already had a Variable Miles option. You could even change between Fixed and Variable from stay to stay. This "enhancement" is eliminating the Fixed Miles option.
