I wrote back and I told them I was going to just continue crediting flights to UA.
And it was then today that suddenly responded they announced that they looked at my zero flight activity and said there would not be an "extension".
The timeline is confusing because the first e-mail you've posted says they've reviewed your status on September 9th, implying that that's the date they reviewed your status and took it away.
But in that case, I have no sympathy for you. They gave you a status match for over 6 months and you credited no flights whatsoever? I would have done the same if I were them.
That being said, the length of time it took them to respond to your request is pretty awful.
