The Medallion Desk folks can barely keep up with the new upgrade and companion rules.
I wouldn't trust them at all with MQDs. Especially because they won't be the people to fix it after you buy the RDMs and it doesn't work, and they will likely deflect responsibility too or cut you a voucher for the amount you need to fly so you can leave them alone.
