Your tier bonus is only used in the first part and has nothing to do with base miles.
If you look at your PC statement, not your activities, these are itemised there.
Wait, so you are saying that a 4x promo means I'll get 4x miles on top of the regular miles (aka 5x miles total, plus regular tier bonus)? I'm not the least bit opposed to that, just largely surprised, I was pretty sure 4x promo meant I'll get 4x miles in total, not on top.
