Is that so?
My Membership year Ends September 8; my Card Expires October 31.

Not managing requalification, I thought that meant that from September 9, my Status (online and for mileage accrual) will be Bronze while maybe (just maybe) the card would still be valid for gaining access to lounges and increased baggage allowance.

So essentially, you are confirming that I will retain full status privileges (Mileage, Luggage, Lounges) throughout September and October - until the card expires?

If that was the case I'd definitely go for BA...
