Conflicting Tier Point info

The Virgin Atlantic website seems to have conflicting info on this so I wonder if anybody could confirm ...
If I book a flight + hotel via Virgin Atlantic, do I qualify for Tier points, as well as miles, on the cost of the booking (in addition to the miles and tier points for the flight itself).
This would be the case if I booked via Virgin Holidays.

Your will earn the standard Virgin points + tier points based on the cabin you fly in on the VS flights (and that's regardless of where you book) plus you will also earn 20 VS tier points for every £500 you spend with Virgin Holidays. You must quote your Flying Club number at the time of booking though to earn those extra tier points.

If you have one and pay using either version of the VS credit card then you will earn Virgin Points from that Virgin Holidays spend as well.

Thanks James. Elsewhere on the website there is a table that says you will earn tier points on spend with Virgin Holidays or, Flight + Hotel bookings direct with Virgin Atlantic?
I'm asking as I 'accidently' booked direct with Virgin rather than going through Virgin Holidays which I normally do :-(

You should be still good as from the FAQ’s on this page:

How do I earn Tier Points?

You earn Tier Points when you book a holiday with Virgin Atlantic Holidays and with Virgin Atlantic Flight + Hotel. Tier Points are earned based on the total cost of your holiday. The more you spend, the more Tier Points you earn. All elements of your trip spend will qualify towards tier point earn (excluding cancellation fees).
