I completed the 100 SP requirement after the first week of May. After a few days, they gave me the upgrades, but then two days later, they took them back. I am still showing that I need SP to upgrade to Full Gold, so it seems they are waiting to do a review en masse at the end of July.

Anyone else just get reviewed early, I just got my reviewed early as I had already meet the 100SP. Also because of the Tasman Bubble closure, they are now giving an full 12month membership rather than the 8 months that was orginally planned.
Note - doesn't look like any SP you earn above the 100SP count towards your renewal, I'm back to 0 with 810 to renew.

Quick question - for any of you that met the 100 SP and got upgraded to full gold already, did you guys get the full Gold pack mailed out to you with the card/bag tags, etc? Will these be mailed out to us if we qualify for full Gold? I don't think the T&Cs mentioned anything about this...

I received a status match last year - have until 30 June to qualify for 'real' Gold, however due to lockdowns / Tasman closure Im short status points - has anyone received an extension to qualify due to these factors ?

Do they ever status match other One World programmes? I'm a BA Silver (like NZ gold) and potentially BA gold (like NZ GE) soon. Been looking at some very tempting LH/LX business class fares to NZ but I don't have status on any *A programmes these days. A status match offer might be the motivation I need to pull the trigger!

Has anyone been reassessed and upgraded to full Gold? I checked today and my nominated Gold status is still set to expire July and it now says my new tier effective Aug will be nominated Silver. I have acquired over 100SP over the promotion so I should be upgraded to full Gold for the next eight months. What is everyone else seeing?
