Not during a friend's gathering .. and I have no car !
If maintaining gold status is important to you then this is what I would do. Otherwise, if they say no, prepare yourself to ask for a fast track offer back to gold in April and doing the requisite number of stays at that time.
But after all the panic .. and that was before the website stopped counting, it still showed my status and said that based on my stays this year, I will be Silver in 2014. So I knew I was off by one even after tomorrow's stay.
So I called and begged.. and spoke to a rather dry and humorless agent and after explaining my dilemma, she just said , " I see you're Gold till Mar
2015". Er , what?
So I don't know what to believe now...
Anyway, if I am downgraded.. I will follow what you just advised.. or stay at least 20 stays before end of March !
Thank you all for your help.
