I am even still waiting for my wife to get PE status even though are cards have been activated since December.
One FD agent even told me that my wife would remain SE in the KL system but with her card could get the PE benefits.
Well, that way she would clearly miss out on the PE 125% bonus miles and free domestic upgrades with NW (oh, and the operational upgrades to Europe Select not to be forgotten).
8 phone call to FD Elite Helpdesk and still counting!!
