Last year, in a year ending in February 2005, I only qualified for Silver membership. My international travel picked up in 2005, and between February 2005 and September 2005, I earned 1620 tier points and earned Gold membership. BA "reset" the tier points at that time, and changed my qualification year to October 2005 through October 2006. From September to December 2005, I earned an additional 1040 Tier Points.

As I earned 2660 tier points in my original qualification year, I inquired by email about the 2500 tier point upgrade certificate. BA now informs me that the 2500 tier point level must be reached in my current qualification year. I am not sure how to do that if BA keeps changing the qualification year when I reach 1500 tier points.

Is BA correct, or should I pursue this issue to a higher level in the BA organization? Thanks in advance for your help.
