Update summary from nufnuf77:

The status update currently seems to take about 15-20 calendar days. No email is sent immediately upon upgrade, but one may be received later (within a week or so). One has to visit the MilleMiglia site and look at one's card displayed under profile. The upgrades are probably processed externally to Alitalia, as neither Freccia Alata Plus line knew anything about it and one member received and email back from external processing team.

Physical card and upgrade voucher code to give status to someone else - 'Freccia Alata for you' are reported to arrive approx 5-10 days after the upgrade has been processed, depending on your postal address.

The coucher for 'Freccia Alata forYou' arrives in the welcome pack and has instructions and rules on how you can use this unique code to upgrade a family member/friend to Freccia Alata status for free. Can only be used once and the person receiving cannot be changed after it is applied.

The 'Business for you' upgrade (4x) is available from the moment one's status shows as Freccia Alata Plus. These 4 upgrade vouchers can be used for oneself or any other nominated person, and can be used by phoning the call centre. To upgrade, the original flight must be booked in P(Classica Plus) or Y, B, M and H(Classica). Upgrade inventory needed seems to be 'Z' class for business and 'A' class for Classica Plus.
It costs: 1 voucher to upgrade P-->Z(Business);
1 voucher for Y/B/M/H-->A(Classica Plus);
2 vouchers to upgrade Y/B/H/M-->Z(Business).


The new expiry date (March 2016 or 2017) will depend on your current status/card submitted, as per this quote from Alitalia:
The new, recognized status will be valid until March 31, 2016. If the status in the existing Frequent Flyer Program expires after March 31, 2016, the equivalent status recognized within the MilleMiglia Program will be valid until March 31, 2017. In no case will lifetime cards be issued.
Matching tiers
Silver level - Ulisse Club
Gold level - Freccia Alata Club <-- Star Alliance Gold
Platinum level - Freccia Alata Plus Club <-- OW Emerald or AA EXP (?)

So they gave me an expiry date of March 31, 2016, is this the norm based on my Aegean date? Not sure if we can accumulate enough miles to retain gold before that date.

Another data point, FWIW. Applied Aug 22 (a Saturday), updated today: September 2nd. BA Gold → Alata Plus.

Expiry 3/17, which is according to Hoyle based on my BA expiry of 10/16.

ETA: email received, 7 Sept. Want card now.

And card arrived 15 Sept (UK). Now to start the ForYou process for the spouse...

My experience.

Was easy to register. However, I sent them copies of my Marco Polo Gold and Etihad Gold Cards plus my FF number. Email response they could not see the cards and so I resent. I must have had 14 replies saying they could not see my cards and I sent them via photos from lap top, iphone and PDF etc. 2 weeks ago I said this was the last time I was going to send my card and the reply came back via email to re send. I gave up!!

Yesterday in the post I get my Gold Card with expire date of 3/17.

Try reading through some previous posts instead of just posting your question.

Would it be best to not even bother using the voucher online and phone straight away? My status match only runs to 3/16 so I want maximum the benefits for me and my partner.

Whats the voucher? I will need to call as my Aegean status will change after Nov 11 and I don't have enough time to accumulate enough mileage with Skyteam.

Hi

I just signed up for MM account

BUT a problem , I did not write down the MM account number and it was not on the email, only the pin code

so now I have a pin code and no MM account number to log in ?

any idea how to get the MM number ?

Thanks for your advise

I called 1 800 223 5730 and talked to Alitalia , gave info and got my number, so all is good on that front

You'll need to call them, unless you want to wait for email comms to come through (but there's no way of telling when that would be!).

I had the same issue. You need to send them a forgot MM number when logging in online. That will generate an email I think.

How long does it take for a car rental (specifically Avis) to post after I return the car? I'm trying to think of ways to generate "activity."
