"The timeframe for status matches is 90 days for December 31, 2007, whichever comes first. At this time there is less than 90 days left in the year so the deadline is December 31, 2007. Please be advised no status match request will be processed after December 1, 2007." from a United agent

So I guess it looks like I won't be status matching until January of next year...this really sucks as I have already booked two rt's on united that will be shy by less than a 1000 miles. Oh well....
