How can I know if I'm in the Computer as Gold?
I got status matched the other day to Gold on TK but haven't received my card. Two days later, I tried to get into the EWR lounge when flying UA and they said I either needed to have my card or they could look me up on the computer.
When I gave them my TK number, it didn't show elite. Nevermind the fact that I showed him the email from TK welcoming me to Star Gold, the fact is that the computer still didn't show it.
How long does this take to get the info to United and is there any other way I can check short of booking another ticket and putting my TK number on the boarding pass? If not, who do I call at TK to fix it?
Thanks!

I received my status match almost 3 weeks ago, but neither UA, SQ or NZ can see that I am *G in their systems. They all tried refreshing the TK number and removing it and reentering it but it still does not reflect *G. Is it normal for it to take this long before other airlines can see the *G status in their systems?

Yes it does show that I am Elite when I log in. It has been showing it since the day that they confirmed my status match, and TK also confirmed on the phone that everything is ok. My issue is that I have several flights on other *A airlines coming up in the next few weeks, and since I don't have the card yet I really need for the other airlines to be able to see the *G status in their systems.
