1. My year end is 31/08
2. I started taking the holidays around November/December time
3. When each holiday was finished I was given until the 31/08 of the following year to renew to Diamond
4. So I did not get a full year to renew to DM. Not that I had any interest.

The rules may have changed but that was my experience.

Good :Luck!
