If you opened a new (had never earned an XP before) Flying Blue account, the 100 XP were immediately deducted and you got Silver (for anyone with Explorer status, the card effectively gave you Silver and rolled over all your XP to the new qualification year). You need 100 XP by July 31 to retain Silver (if you fail to hit that, you'll drop back to Explorer and not carry over any XP) and will need 180 to make Gold.
no, sorry, yes reached silver with the US credited card promo. No XP since. So I’ll need 180 to be gold by 7/31/23 or 100 to retain Silver. To reach Plat before 7/31/23 I’d need 300 or 180+300? I may get 100 XPs as fly Delta enough to maintain then work on Gold or Plat the next period, I’m getting a late start and may be mostly flying Delta the next period. Rather get Flying Blue than worthless Delta points anyway and typically just buy First so upgrades meaningless.
