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:

Whichever status you show them is the one that determines how they treat you.
Show them Flying Blue silver, and they treat you as a Flying Blue silver.
Show them Freccia Alata, and they treat you as Skyteam Elite Plus.

I sent in my LANPASS Comodoro (OW Emerald) elite card requesting a status match and they replied that this frequent flyer card does not meet the requirements of the status match...... I'm pretty sure it does unless they have specific airlines they only match to? Has anyone else been declined with another elite frequent flyer card??
I am going to try again to match with my American Airlines EXP elite card.

I had that as well. I sent them a scan of my card back and front in jpg and pdf under the limit but still not clear then I took some photos of it on my iPhone and transferred to my computer and it was accepted so maybe try that.

Greetings to you from Iran dand99!! Hopefully one day - when politicians will have their sick brains fixed- we'll visit eachother's countries on a direct flight like it used to be before 1979!
To get back to the card, it seems that my wait has been particularly long. Someone mentioned calling millemiglia in the Netherlands? Do I ask for a replacement card there mentioning a loss??
