Long story short: figure out exactly what the correct order is and be sure to verify you are on the correct list (P1/P2).
If you haven't been upgraded with miles by OLCI, it won't happen. ASK to be removed (if they haven't done so already). So you can wait your chance for an EUA. (This is word from several WECARE2 managers_
Mile upgrades always are above 5/3/1 day EUAs...
