They have updated my membership review date to 30 April 2021, with the new Gold expiry date as the 31 May 2022.
Will be interesting to see what happens at the end of April.
I do wonder if they have looked at the status points back dated for the last 4months when reviewing the the requests.
Apparently according to the website you are meant to be able to track the progress to 100SP on the app/website.

Has anyone been denied the status update? I am in NZ and a Silver tier Airpoints member. I applied Sunday night using my China Airlines Dynasty Flyer Emerald status, which would be equivalent to Gold as I have some Sydney trip planned that would get me over the 100 SP hurdle. However, I have heard nothing and seen no update to status in the Airpoints app, which seems to be taking longer than most others, so am a bit concerned...
Thanks all!
Thanks all!

Just checked my profile online and I am indeed Gold once more. AA EXP no issues, yet to receive an email.
If I am able to hit the 100 sp, will this secure 2x RU’s?
I need to go to New Zealand from the US in August/September. I have a friend who is GE with two RU’s he’s gifting me for my birthday.
Another 2x could sweeten the trip a lot!

Happy to report that my account was updated to Gold as of last night. Interesting difference though: I was previously Silver with 369 SP to get to Gold. It now says that I am Nominated Gold through May 2022 and still need 369 SP to upgrade to Full Gold. Is this how they are handling Airpoints members who were already on their way to Gold?

I think these is just how NZ system is handling status matches, and someone has an master spreadsheet that manually use in 4 months to follow up...

Applied on the basis of QF Platinum, no email or other advice but when I logged into the app a few days later I was Gold (previously Silver).
