my colleague of work did a status match to gold about 3 years ago (with goldpointsplus). first he got downgraded to silver, the next year he loose completly his status with club carlson.
then he called cs for ask another statusmatch and the cs agent told him that it was a one-time exeption that they does a status match. maybe in the future there will be a chance of upgrading, but only if he need only 2 or 3 stays more to pass from silver to gold, but whis only 4 nights in one year there is no possibility ..
