I did call BAEC to discuss another matter, and asked a few questions about this. They asked if I had flown BA since our son was born. Before he was born, I retained Gold until Oct 2018, and as this is a status freeze rather than an extension, I can't see that expiry date changing either based on what they said. Our little one was born on Mother's day this year. I did email anyway and was advised a response could be around 4 weeks. The 1,000 avios bonus is expected though
Cheers, my logic being that he was born, I stopped flying in my membership year and thus didn't qualify. It depends what they class as a freeze. Can they freeze my silver membership now and give me a year to pick it up again? Or could it only be done at the time he was born.
I suspect i know the answer, but worth a shot.
