Yes, that's exactly my situation so thanks for your reply. I spent over $30k on my AAdvantage cards last year, so that was the EQD waiver. I've talked to AAdvantage customer service twice now but I definitely get the sense that they don't have the system revisions in place yet to automatically handle status decisions when an EQD waiver is used AND the qualifying miles were booked after 12/31/21 but before 2/28/22 (a new and non-typical scenario). I'll call them again tomorrow and see if I can get to someone who might understand the problem better. Thanks again for your reply!
