I'm guessing that since there were some EQM promos and such in 2021, that whatever criteria they used to target the emails didn't take those into account. Maybe it just counted base miles and sent them off.

I got through to Mileage Plan by phone. Agent confirmed that I can requalify for MVPGold by flying 10k before 4/13. Did not have any explanation for the erroneous email.

It probably solved, but they will not resend email for record and was told I can take a screenshot of the chat for record.
[ I added a note to your account about our conversation. It was my pleasure to assist you today. Thank you for choosing Alaska Airlines. Take care.]

From Mileage Plan chat:
It is a known issue that the incorrect emails went out to members. Yes you must fly 10,000 miles before 4/13/2023 to receive MVP Gold status

I just called in, was on hold for 10+ minutes, and the agent said there was an email glitch and a lot of people are calling in about it. She confirmed that I could re-qualify for 75K despite receiving the MVPG email (I was 75K last year).

Mine too. I was MVPG last year and mine says:

New year,
same status?

We're giving you a second chance to requalify for the MVP® status you enjoyed last year. In order to regain your status through December 31, 2023, you just need to earn 5,000 base flight miles between January 13 and April 13, 2023.*

Same for another family member of mine.

Know 2 others that were Gold and got MVP email only.

AS should send these emails out again. It's confusing many.

I was 75K and dropped to MVP. I got the second chance to become MVP email.

My wife was MVP and received no email.

This is utterly confusing, and if I wasn’t a reader of this thread, I would probably think AS isn’t actually offering me anything and throw the email in the trash. So it is plain stupid that they aren’t planning to send out corrected emails.

And I will hit up chat to confirm that I can qualify for Gold (don’t think I will go for 75k) so I have a “written” proof when the second part of this promo implementation fails, too.

Add my wife to the list.
Is there any way to see if your status was granted by a promo? My wife is MVPG. She called a couple weeks ago to see if she was eligible for Fast Track and was told no. She got the email mentioned above. Hypothetically, she could have earned MVP normally and then MVPG through a promo.
In addition, if she flies 5k miles to requalify for MVP and keeps flying to get MVPG, do those 5k miles count towards the 40k for Gold?

No email for me, I was 100k last year (75k on January 1, 2022) and dropped to MVPG. Hoping to requalify for 75k using this promo
