Now my understanding is that gifted Golds no longer get soft landings. So will BA IT be clever enough to move me from gifted extended Gold to Bronze in August 2021 or will it drop me to Blue - all assuming I don't earn the necessary tier points
It is hit and miss over whether gifted Gold's get a soft landing. Doing the 4 qualifying flights seems to have something to do with it - if you've had 4 cash segments on BA in the final year, you may get a Silver downgrade. If you don't, it's back to Blue. I'd like to be more specific but I'm working off a very small data set.
