Interesting. Do you remember the date you nominated her? Still nothing for my SO, who was nominated July 5. I called AS last week, and they said it should be happening this week, but I just checked and the system still hasn't updated his status from Gold to 100k...

It was within days - no more than three - after receipt of the email that announced the benefit.

Sent an email last week to AS asking for an update. No response.

Was a little salty about that so I called today and after getting transferred to an MP person they say that they are still working on it and hope to have the status grant request done "soon".

We'll see.

Well played anteater

Based on new top secret intel I have reason to believe it'll happen "soon".

"soon" happened today.

Glad it finally was pushed through! (And without me contacting AS aside from the initial form).

Do you know something I don't? Same household is still a problem for me!

Two MM’s in same household

Any update on the policy if both household members are MM’s?

Are you close to MVP status? Open this email!

The above title is from an email my MVPG-status-sharing wife received from AS this morning. It advises her that there is still time to achieve MVP status for 2024. Mind you, I nominated her to share my lifetime MVPG status via the new MM benefit. She was told that the nomination "took" - but then she gets this email today that suggests she needs to get with the program and fly some more so she can get MVP status for 2024. For the record, she qualified for MVPG for this year. With the MM benefit, no more mileage runs for her - we hope!

This was alarming and wife called the Mileage Plan, who owned up to the fact that the email was poorly written and a better version is coming out shortly. But she should not be getting any emails about retaining status or achieving status because I nominated her for the shared MVPG benefit....

Anyone else get something like this? TIA
