Not sure I'd be optimistic here given how the upgrade certs changed vs the old ones that expired with status

So - the wording is poor and not correct that it’s a “year from selection”.
My lounge membership cycles 9/1, and when I hit 100k last year I asked if it would extend or just give me 4 months. Was told the latter: it was explicitly a 2025 Lounge pass. So for people with existing Lounge+, it was a terrible perk. Has that actually been fixed? I don't think I'll hit 100k this year, but a 12 month extension is a good perk, while 4 extra months is not.
