It's now 9 days since the last web site update, and 13 days since the AC tweet promising that the "Spread Your Wings Badge" would be added "today".
There are a collection of badges still to add (lounge badges, upgrades, and others listed above) .... and meanwhile, there is incredibly tight competition at the key points - between positions 10 & 11, and between positions 30 & 31.
Some updates to the site are long overdue, IMHO.

Here is what they said to me on July 5 in response to my July 3 "what do you need" inquiry (that is right! A 2 day response!)
"If you have a complete list of upgraded flights along with the proof of upgrade (some folks have been sending through screenshots of their upgrades, which works just fine), please do send it along ..."
I went to my upgrade account and just screenshot everything for them.

That said, I did see EYW-related activity this week and we still have this afternoon for them to do their weekly update - Specifically, I did get the infamous July 6 Moving On Up 2500 AQMs in my altitude/aeroplan account yesterday July 19 (although it still does not show in the EYW detail yet as of right now.)

How do you prove which lounges you visited? I have a full list, of course, because I knew what to expect, but I have no "proof".
Edit: Between AmericanBovine and myself, we now have 6 outstanding emails to AC over EYW. Some were sent earlier this week, but most were sent today.

For the rest you have the BPs showing expected arrival and departure, and even if you can’t track back what time everything arrived (from memory the app only goes back a week and of course it’s not working for me to check) presumably reconciling the length of time between flights with your list is hopefully enough proof.
Ideally you’d want a photo of you, pickle in hand, with the days paper, and a visible time on watch inside each lounge for each visit as proof. But I’m assuming this didn’t happen.
Surely AC have a database of lounge visits. I mean, we have a thread dedicated to the topic of lounge visits (before cancelling flights). Presumably the delay is finding some employee to manually query that database and insert badges into the EYW one.

Yeah I'm now up to 8 outstanding emails between the two of us. I deliberately did not ask for multiple types of badges in any email, hopefully making it easier and more straightforward. It's a shame I need a checklist to ensure I don't forget what they owe me.

As of today, I haven't received any missing points for the emails I sent in during May and June, although I did receive confirmation from the EYW team that the points would be posted if I sent in the relevant documentation (which I did).
Also as of today, I haven't received any replies to the last 2 contact emails I sent (in early July) to claim other missing points (i.e. different from May and June's claims).
I currently have no idea which of my missing point claims (if any) they are/are not in the midst of processing.
But at least I have a spreadsheet to track my multiple claims, lol.
