The kits may take 3 months. Who knows.
At least I got my GPUs on time--but my kit still says "processing." And I may need the new card in 2 weeks when I'm on international travel. Sigh.

Since the SWUs and CR-1s are posting, I think this thread needs to be closed, less more people out / tattletale themselves with unhelpful information.

More than expected GPUs posted

So I was the one that had to "borrow" 3 GPUs. So I fully expected that only 3 GPUs will post. However, I got 6. We will see if UA will claw back 3...

Well, if they don't claw them back within, say, a month you could call MP and remind them that they need to take them back. I mean it works both ways, right?

Odd that my pending/processing status has finally changed to 1K 2015 one week into the new year but was earned in November 2014. Even more odd that there are no RPU or GPU posted as of today.


No more flights booked on UA until that is resolved!

What I foresee happening is that sometime down the road, UA will claw back those "lent" GPUs, and we'll get a rash of threads posting about how UA ruined a trip by punting the pax back into E-.

Question The opposite problem...GPU/RPUs granted but no status?

Hi,

I've had something strange occur with my MP account, after signing up for a MP United Club CC. As background I live in NZ but have ties to US and could apply for CC that way. Meant I am now waived from minimum segment rule. In 2014 flew approx 134,000 miles on *A partners (not United). After being accepted for the CC, I noticed within one day that RPUs and GPUs posted into my account (6 of each respectively). But status still shows me as general member. Is this a glitch in the system. Would love to use the GPUs for the long haul flights from MEL-LAX that I have booked for my family later this year, but unclear if this is an IT hitch or not.

Any insights?

When did you get approved for the card? In 2014? Only in that circumstance do you get 1K status and if your address on your MP account is in NZ.
