My wife and I just applied for a status match with UA. We both are (and have been for a while) CP on US. I faxed them a cover letter and copies of our US accounts showing CP status for the last four years. Their response was to grant us EP, not 1K. Together, we fly over 250K miles per year. I guess that was not enough. Perhaps I should have sent a printout of dollars spent too.
Same story. Many of my friends and family members who shown great history of flying, both domestic and internationals, are comped to only 1P.
