believe me, I always faced issues with them for miles redemption, and sometimes credit card payments....I would recommend to check their services in mid 2015 where new planes are coming in and major restructuring and overhauling of services has been done recently to reach Etihad/EK and QR level of services. They are on the path of SV right now towards improvement, hopefully.
