Got this reply - Thank you for writing to Privilege Club. We value your business. We wish we could add 1 Qcredit for you to make use of available 32 Qcredits but regrettably, we will be unable to add 1 Qcredit however, you may use Qmiles instead. We thank you for your understanding and co-operation in this regard.

I have been Platinum with QR for 4 years.
The new Qcredit chart introduced in May 2018 was really disapointing as must of platinum members flying from western Europe to Asia could not use anymore their 60 Qcredits to upgrade 2 separated flights Europe-DOH (28 Qcredits instead of 25) and DOH-Asia (33 Qcredits instead of 30) but instead have to use them only for upgrading 2 DOH-Europe flights or 2 combined Europe-DOH-Asia flights (46 Qcredits in total).
And QR is not known for bending the rules, even for 1 Qmiles or 1 Qcredit...
