How fast do you lose Gold status after cancelling credit cards?
For those of us who have status solely because we hold AMEX Hilton Surpass or Citi Hilton Reserve, how long does it take to lose Gold status after one cancels the credit card?

How long does it take to get the gold status through the credit cards? I have an upcoming stay at a Hilton property, and have applied through the Visa Infinite concierge more than 1 week ago, but still no email or change in status...

It doesn't matter to you how long it takes for the (US) Citi Reserve or Hilton Surpass, because you are obviously in some other country (though I'm not sure which one, since your FT profile doesn't list your home base) since you're mentioning a card that doesn't exist in the US.
