One point worth mentioning. As the downgrade occurred on the outbound flight from London, you should also be entitled to a £75.00 refund on the UK Air Passenger Duty originally paid* - you should not have to pay the full standard rate when you were seated in Economy class.

* Check your eTicket receipt. If the UK tax was levied at £75.00 then it is possible Expedia miscalculated the fare and inadvertently booked you in economy. If the UK tax was £150.00, then your booking was kosher.
