Is there really no point even trying to get from Bronze to Silver? I've never tried to get an upgrade using points, but I thought I had absolutely no chance of getting an upgrade whilst Bronze? Any thoughts greatly appreciated!!

If you're AA Plat then why would you want Qf Gold too?

They are pretty much the same. Unless you're close to a lifetime goal or need a few extra QF points you may as well credit the entire thing to AA
