TCO,

you might want to check that Marriott stay - the earning rate is 3 BA miles per USD - for £240, you should have got around (240*1.75=) 420*3= 1260 miles. Even though I too am one stay short of Marriott silver status, and a teensy weensy bit narked that it's getting given away free with a packet of cornflakes , it's a damn fine way of getting miles
