LX Upgrade miles not deducted

I used 50K miles to upgrade in May 2008 on a transatlantic LX flight.

Miles have yet to be deducted. Flight was 5 weeks ago...

Am I just lucky or will they eventually be deducted?

Did you by any chance do an on the spot upgrade at checkin or the gate (and filled out a paper form). Did this on a flight in September and the miles were deducted in January. So you are not off the hook yet ;-)

Also have been in the same situation - and thinking that possible LX forgot it - 6 - 8 weeks later it was pulled. So do not get your hopes up to high.
