Change in Requalification Requirements for Elite Plus?

It appears that TK may be changing its requalification criteria for E+ to either 40,000 miles after one year or 80,000 miles after two years. I saw this today on an electronic statement but maybe there was a mistake. Is anyone else aware of such a change in mileage requirements?

I remember the 40k/year for E+ re-qualification, not sure about the 80k/2 years thing.

Since I'm only Elite, it's 25k in 1 year or 37.5k in 2 (45? if you are Turkish residences).

Checked my statement in Feb, it still says 40,000 in 1 years and 60,000 in 2 years.
Maybe it's a regional thing? I seem to remember Turkey residence have higher re-qualification requirements.

80,000 is for E+ qualification.
40,000(1st year) or 60,000 (two years) E+ requalification criteria persist.
E+ requalification is same for any residency.
Elite requalification criteria are different for Turkish residents and non-residents.

There may be some kind of IT glitch.

I noticed this last year. However, as I had already requalified comfortably, I didn't think too much about it.

In my case there appeared to be a discrepancy between the requalification levels shown on the statement TK actually sent me electronically and the one on the statement you could access on your membership page online.

It is interesting that someone else has now noticed this. At first I thought that I might have not looked carefully enough.

I've gotten that on some statements as well, where the requalification requirement has been stated for Turkish members.
