Therefore, they cancelled all my bookings and sent me refund notice (I got all of them sitting in my INBOX now though I did not ask for a refund) - YES, bookings were cancelled by IB and I can not see any bookings in my account.
Points were still there but I guess they will be taken away. Shall I immediately make the booking then?
Was Germany one of the 'entitled' countries?
I got mine with an old account. Mrs SI, who signed up as a new member for this promo, did not. Going through the drawn out email process.
Edit: found this on a random bloggers site re: countries included: " Spain, France, Italy, Germany, Portugal, Russia, United Kingdom, Switzerland, the Netherlands, Brazil, Argentina, Colombia, Chile, Peru, Mexico and the US"
