sometimes if you made Elite status toward the end of the calendar year, let's say November 2009, you will not receive the first card that expires Feb 2010 but you should definitely get the one that expires Feb 2011.
The difference is that starting in 2012, cards will expire in January instead of February.
You can always go to continental.com and print out a new card if you do not get it on time.
If you do not show up as Elite despite being Elite than that deserves a call to continental Elite desk; skip the e-mail - it has been useless lately
