Just received a call back from Aeroplan. She told me on the phone that unless she selects her benefits she will not receive a package. I explained to her we are delaying selecting benefits as we are not sure our travel plans and needs for the remainder of the year yet and are unsure on which benefits we want and the agent told me that until benefits are selected no kit will be sent.

That's nonsense, and dates back to when paper MLL passes were a select benefit for all tiers.
In 2017, they would not send out a package until you picked your benefits because it could change the contents of the package. That changed in the 2018 benefit year (when only 25K could choose more as a select benefit), and kits were mailed out immediately. In 2018, 2019, and 2020, I selected my benefits in October, and I'd had my kit for months.

So I received this email on Jan 26th, but the link to actually request the physical kit is not working for me.
After I click the link it states that the offer is expired (see below picture).
In the terms and conditions of the email the validity date is between Jan 26th, 2023 and Feb 9th, 2023. I suspect this is just Air Canada screwing it up in the back end; but can anyone else confirm if they have the same issue?

No 50k kit here in AB and Ive been 50k since about October. I will take the real kit as having a card is always good insurance to get into partner lounges.

Question though, has anyone come up with creative alternate uses for the metal things they send for attaching them?? I have about 50 and they never need replacing!

I also keep them for future use, they are very sturdy. I'm sure I'll find a good use for them. I have a few in the bottom of my travel bag.

So when I qualified for a higher status last yr I never got anything but just didn't care too much. I do kind of want the physical card and newer bag tags? I cannot figure out how to request it online? There is a you lost your card but that doesn't send the whole kit just the card? Just wondering if anyone knows
