Update summary from nufnuf77:
The status update currently seems to take about 15-20 calendar days. No email is sent immediately upon upgrade, but one may be received later (within a week or so). One has to visit the MilleMiglia site and look at one's card displayed under profile. The upgrades are probably processed externally to Alitalia, as neither Freccia Alata Plus line knew anything about it and one member received and email back from external processing team.
Physical card and upgrade voucher code to give status to someone else - 'Freccia Alata for you' are reported to arrive approx 5-10 days after the upgrade has been processed, depending on your postal address.
The coucher for 'Freccia Alata forYou' arrives in the welcome pack and has instructions and rules on how you can use this unique code to upgrade a family member/friend to Freccia Alata status for free. Can only be used once and the person receiving cannot be changed after it is applied.
The 'Business for you' upgrade (4x) is available from the moment one's status shows as Freccia Alata Plus. These 4 upgrade vouchers can be used for oneself or any other nominated person, and can be used by phoning the call centre. To upgrade, the original flight must be booked in P(Classica Plus) or Y, B, M and H(Classica). Upgrade inventory needed seems to be 'Z' class for business and 'A' class for Classica Plus.
It costs: 1 voucher to upgrade P-->Z(Business);
1 voucher for Y/B/M/H-->A(Classica Plus);
2 vouchers to upgrade Y/B/H/M-->Z(Business).
The new expiry date (March 2016 or 2017) will depend on your current status/card submitted, as per this quote from Alitalia:

Sorry I should have said I tried to match and I got denied. Wondering why I got denied because I thought that the promo was for Alitalia to match any airline status or if anyone else has tried this match.

I think they only match status of the other alliances, not every FFP.

Got matched from SAS Eurobonus Diamond to Freccia Alata Plus until 2017-03!
Got the worn expiration date but they corrected it for me.
But For my friend who I give a Freccia Alata card, the expiration date was not updated,
are there any e-mail that i can get in touch with them to get his card corrected to correct expiration date?

I just wrote a letter and say that I have by misstake sent in a copy of old status card, with a photo on the new one.
They it looks like they don't replay, just silently update status.
Have write and asked for extension for the give away card, lets see what happens.

CX Diamond - Denied
Sent CX Diamond card with statement on 31 Aug 2015, received the following 9 Sep 2015. I thought I saw someone succeeded with CX?
the Frequent Flyer card provided does not meet the requirements of the Status Match initiative.
Best regards.
