You're silver and did not get enough TPs to get gold, why are you surprised?

I think you will find that retaining and qualifying are two very different animals.
Fair comment - as I said not that disappointed. Reason I was surprised is that I have heard that BA granted status requalification when some members were (in some cases) a few hundred points shy of status renewal. I believe the reason was the economy but I understand the point about retaining and requalifying - thanks
