Have I renewed my status..?

Sorry all I know this is a very stupid question, but I just want to double-check and make sure given how poor the Turkish Airlines website IT is...

Here is the screenshot of two different accounts of my family:



Both have collected 37,500 miles within the 2-year period of Elite membership. Yet, I don't understand why the 'Card Renewal' page shows differently. May I know if the Elite status will be automatically renewed after the expiry date for both/either screenshot? Or is there some kind of bug that I have to contact TK to manually update my status (especially for the first account)?

Thanks all in advance!

Are either of the accounts doing anything special? (status match, etc.)

Is the second account re-qualifying with 25K during the first year of status?

Right! You remind me of something indeed.

Both accounts were status matched back in 2015. First account re-qualify only this year while the second account got qualified within the first year already.

make sure you get 40k.

I did not get renewed with 37500 due to some calculation issues with their monthly statements.

Both accounts have successfully requalified.

Heed : The amount of status miles to be collected = 0

Cheers,

Thanks a lot! I just want to make sure there is no glitch or bug or whatsoever since I'm planning to fly on 1/Sep/2017, one day exactly after the expiry date of current status.

Seriously?! Should I call beforehand to make sure if they make it right first? I don't think I can make 40k in a short period of time...

May I know what happened in the end for you?

I'm in a similar situation. I was status matched but I was in the batch downgraded to Classic Plus after the first year despite getting the 15,000 required before reinstating me to Elite in January albeit with the same expiry date of December 2017.

I thought I would leave it until I had 37,500 - in fact I now have 42,760 points (with over 40,000 on TK metal) but my account stubbornly won't say I've qualified for another two years.

I'm trying to sum up the energy to send a message to them. Maybe I'll do it this weekend...

Your account won't show the extended validity of your status.

Check,how many miles you need to requalify. If it shows 0 miles you are requalified.

Same as in Barts case.

Cheers.

This is the problem, it says I need over 25,000 miles to requalify (not upgrade to Elite Plus).

I have sent them a message. In the past 18 months I have 47,000 status miles.

Hopefully they will see that and make the adjustments.

i just had a great experience with TK miles&smiles hotline, such a nice female agent with skills...

i did several bookings and also asked about that issue posted here.

She said the date is the expiry date of the PHYSICAL CARD you received first. The status is renewed
