[MENTION=4560]Shark[/MENTION]lets - after an overnight update and an App refresh, my Card Expiry Date has now been extended out to 30th November
2024 as it should be so I will no longer by making a
DYKWIA of myself on the Gold line this weekend
That's good news

So looking at the below quote from above:
In the circumstance wherein the OP is already Silver at 8th November and accumulates a further 600 points and 4 BA sectors from 9th November to requalify for Silver before 31st December 2023 they will also be eligible to receive Silver benefits until 31st December 2025 however because there has been no interim 'downgrade' to Bronze (which in this example would happen on 1st January 2024) BA's IT does not recognise the activity as a 'requalification' but as a 'retention' and the BAEC account and App will incorrectly show a 'card expiry' of 31st December 2024 instead of 2025.
In previous discussion on here it has been stated that at the following Tier Point anniversary (i.e. 8th November 2024) BA's IT will catch this error and amend the card expiry date to the correct date of 31st December 2025.......will your gold status then update to say "2025" next November, then?
