Has anyone had success with ORC on domestic and/or all-DL metal in the post-MQM era? Obviously this doesn't really have any impact on MQDs or RDM earning, since those are purely spend-based, but it does matter for MM.

e.g. Had DCA-LGA flight cancelled as part of DCA-LGA-MEM, rebooked DCA-ATL-MEM, which is about 300 miles shorter total. Called in to get ORC since I'm close to a MM threshold, agent said she'd send it to the skymiles desk, it re-posted with no changes (MM balance didn't budge). I was really just shrugging this off, but the same thing happened to me a second time.
