With all due respect, that's incorrect. The change is effective May 1 (and it says so in the e-mail posted by swag earlier in this thread):

"As of May 1, 2002, points can be redeemed for miles at an 8:1 ratio."

Then, unofficially (at least I have never seen it in writing by GP or Radisson), GP decided (I'm sure under the pressure from many disappointed members) to provide a grace period until June 1 to allow one transfer at the 4:1 ratio.

Yes. The point of my post was that even if the June 1 date was accurate, a non-FT'ing Radisson customer would not know that, and would assume that the deadline had passed. Maybe he'd call or write to complain and get the 4:1; or maybe he'd assume nothing could be done, and get 8:1 when he eventually converted.
