I checked today figuring that I'd see my status permanently as CO Gold, but no, I am now "Non-Elite" so obviously they updated the status but erroneously dumped me back to peon status!
Does anyone have any insight into how the status match challenge process works, is there a specific time of the month that status is adjusted? Or is a glitch more likely? Thoughts on how to fix etc. would be welcome. I already have an email into status match to see if they can help.
Thanks

I guess I am lucky. I applied for status match With UA at same time as you (with AA Plat) and was given *A Gold. I did not do any flying to keep the status. It was to expire Feb 3rd and it stil shows *A Gold. In fact I am in a CO lounge in Guam with this status and have used the lounge benefit several times after Feb 3rd. I hope it stays that way for a while and I don't jinx it
