I'm 100% on TSA Pre✓ so far, yet I'm not officially enrolled either. There must be certain criteria that allow certain pax flying with participating airlines to use TSA Pre✓ even though they are not enrolled. What these are is anybody's guess. Nationality? ESTA? Flying F or J? Maybe they just like me? I can't tell ya. The TSA must know, as it has to be their decision.

I am not officially enrolled in TSA's Precheck. That's the interesting part.
I'm still waiting for RTP-NL to launch so we Dutchies can start enrolling for Global Entry and thus precheck. There's no official way (that I know of) to enroll into precheck for me at this moment.
Still..it was on my (and my co-pax's on the same PNR) domestic boarding passes last month.

A friend of mine, not a U.S. citizen or resident, just visitor, gets PreCheck every time she travels with me on the same reservation if I get PreCheck.

Well, if sometimes you get it and sometimes you don't - my comment was to a different poster who stated that it was not consistent in their experience - then there is an anomaly!
I would venture that it is your (previous) membership of Privium, which is integrated to some extent with US/TSA databases ("Flux")

As a UK citizen not enrolled into Pre check I have had Pre on all flights both to the US and internally when flying UA and or LH so just presumed it was the airline and class of travel rather than having been enrolled.

It says:
KL 0642 AMS
KL 1973 BUD
I have to assume the "large tag" said the same.
Anyway, thanks to all who took the time to comment.
