Sadiqhassan, I did read your post carefully, but again the information is incorrect. Yesterday, I spoke with another friend, who was around 16,000 miles short. Flew a business class flight to Auckland, in mid February, almost two months past the deadline. She called and they gave her the email address. She, wrote an email, giving the usual deal, that she is moving her business to Emirates and ya know blah blah. They took one day to respond granting her Silver. I will post the email tonight.

Take Care,

Billman
