MH Enrich - Is there a catch?

[Harpoon]

I took a return business flight from MEL to KUL last week. Before I left I signed up to MH's Enrich program as it's free to join.

Today I checked and I have earned just over 24,000 points!

An award economy flight, one way from MEL-KUL only costs 32,000 points. Is that right? It seems to me that either a) there's some sort of catch; or b) some mistake has been made from flight gaining 24k points?

A return economy fare MEL-KUL is only 45k. So with 2 business class return trips I get 1 economy free!?!?! Seems like something isn't right. I didn;t see anyting in the sign up about getting heaps and heaps of points on sign up though I did get 500 points for joining.

When comparing the apparent value for money compared to QFF, MHFF seems miles (pun intended) ahead. Can anyone shed any light?

I think you were the lucky unwitting recipient of a double miles promotion!

Perfectly simple explaination! Thank you.

I didn't see that promotion at all I even flicked through that news link but obviously too fast
