UA Miles on ANA Japan Air-operated flights

Hi, has anyone recently been successful with earning United miles for ANA flights that are operated by Air Japan? I have heard mixed messages. I called United and they said I won't earn miles b/c it's operated by Air Japan not ANA, even though it's an ANA flight number. Just wondering if anyone has actually had success with this or know of any workarounds? I'm flying them from Tokyo to Hong Kong in business class and it kills me to take a flight that won't earn miles. Thanks!
