But almost everyone here is using DONEx's and mileage is irrelevant on those. We know QF have been reaching on these tickets with their own interpretation of the rules. One a DONEx you probably would have stronger ground, but I can see where they are coming from on the DGLOB34. In usual times these fares don't change, so a recalculation wouldn't matter.

Did you tell them to do the calculation and find out what the result was? In theory anything under 34k total miles should be the same, but who knows with QF.

It does seem that a couple of airlines have some contempt for the CAI fare post devaluation, but in fairness it was only 30% lower than ex-CAI had been for the past 10 or so years, it's not like everyone was buying RTWs for $500. I'd be tempted to challenge them back on that "greatly" undervalued statement and show the facts that it didn't really go down "that" much from the long time historical fare.

Adding insult to injury, not a single one of us requested nor desired them to be the ticketing carrier on nearly all of them issued from the OW site. That's a flaw in the site and system overall, QF should never be the issuing carrier from CAI since they don't fly there and can't be the first carrier.
