If I had a way of showing them the original email via the phone, I would've.

Got is as a 25k used it to change my award flight for a family of 4 to Florida in February. I live in a small town in Quebec with an airport with 1 to 3 flights a day. Therefore flights are expensive so I normally book with points.
So instead of 93k points and 283 in taxes for family assigned seats in the last rows of the plane, it now cost me 1884.xx with bulkhead seats think this was worth it with two small children 3 and 5.
