iii) You are BMI Gold (or Silver) and BA Gold (or Silver) and your BA year expires first and you will NOT retain your existing BA status
WAIT until you drop down a BA tier, and then match ASAP. Your BA status will go back up to where it was, and you will get status for all of the current BA year and all the next one, so c 23 months, as outlined in 2) below.
I may not be interpreting this correctly. My understanding is existing Exec Club members will have their current Tier Point balance and membership year reset when the tier match is applied. The matched tier will then be valid for 12 months.
Fantastic thread BTW
