Will they only need 1125 points or will the 1125 points be applicable to June month end (and earlier) as well? Apologies if I missed the answer to this up thread, the thread is growing rapidly!

I'm in exactly the same position as you. Online accounts haven't been updated yet. I expect that our accounts will be extended to Gold until 8 June 2022. We will need to earn 1,125 tier points between 9 June 2021 and 8 June 2022 to retain Gold for the 2022-2023 membership year.
