I got Platinum status just because GOLD ELITE status in SkyTeam.
But anyway it's useless card due the price for rentals in Sixt. Hertz, Europcar and brokers are always better (cheaper) in my cases.

For my European rentals, I've often found Sixt to be the least expensive option, using the prices I get with my platinum status. And they've been quite generous on the car upgrades I've received, too.

Unfortunately Sixt has huge delay in sending card to customers. It's not a problem for rentals (because status clearly displayed in the system) but big problem for following status match games.

. This was very surprising to me...seems like a really long time for such a simple task.

How does one get the sixt status based on DL Platinum
I am thinking of switching from Hertz as their post-Ford management seems to be reducing benefits and raising prices. How long does it take to get the status, how do I request it? How to get the 35% discount mentioned in the DL literature. The Sixt website is no help at all and the DL site has not a word about how to do it.

Can anybody confirm this?
