I have a bad EQD to EQM ratio (I have to pay too much per mile). 12,859 EQD, but barely made platinum with EQM 50,821 and 49 EQS. I need better deals on longer flights next year.

All of my flights are international to Brazil or Europe (i did a MIA-DFW-MIA MR to get the EQM) that's why my EQD/EQS is U$ 522,00

$12,030 EQD, 100,031 EQM*
*glitch in BA/AA fare class due to IRROPS cost me ~$95 EQD and ~450 EQM—I thought I planned it close but didn’t mean for it to be THAT close

I don't think this is exciting enough for me, my plan is to squeak in past the 12k mark in the last few hours of the year, with the last qualifying flight on the 31st, lol...
Had to shorten my Christmas vacation by one day for this...

I'm currently at:
12065 EQDs
162k EQMs
90EQSs
I will actually get another 450 or so EQDs by the end of the year, so my final total won't be particularly close.
However, AA double counted a flight segment I took on a partner airline. Thus, I got credited an extra EQS and bunch of extra EQDs, EQMs and AAMiles. Without this error, I would end the year a lot closer to 12k EQDs.
Does anyone know if there is precedence for AA to take back miles (and EQMs, EQDs, EQSs, etc) after they have already published them on your account? I know the odds of AA actually realizing that they gave me extra EQDs and EQMs that I didn't deserve is 1 in a million. However, it came pretty close to being the difference between making and not making ExecPlat this year, so it would be nice to know if anyone has ever had unearned/undeserved miles disappear on them (presumably due to AA correcting an error).
