I levelled up to Gold just over a week ago, a few days later received an email saying if I wanted a physical card then I could order one online, so did that and ordered some bag tags too just in case.
Today, about a week after my status updated I received the standard Gold welcome pack of membership card, two bag tags and a golden ticket.

Also, for all users outside the UK, be aware that BA is sending cards with local post, unlike Lufthansa Miles&More ( FQTV and higher ) which was always sent with 1-day priority international mail.

Before reading the thread above, I had emailed BAEC on 3rd March querying what had happened to my welcome pack which may or may not have been sent on 30th January.
Later the same day, 3rd March, I received an email confirmation of an order for a Bronze luggage tag. I had assumed somebody at BAEC had ordered this on my behalf.
Today, I received an email response from BAEC to my query, apologising that I hadn't received the Membership Card I ordered on 3rd March (not that I had queried it and even if I had, I sent the email to them on 3rd March and didn't expect the card would magically arrive the same day) and advising it can take up to 28 days to be delivered.
Pi$$ up. Brewery.

These will all come in handy with all the travel I'll be doing in the foreseeable future.

So BA still send out welcome pack? I see my upgrade to Exec Gold was fulfilled on Feb 12 but the pack has never reached my mailbox... The replacement tags that I ordered on Mar 5 did tho...

I was fortunate in that I made Gold last week before the world caved in, so I am waiting to see if my card and tags show up in the next few weeks before I decide to actively request them, since there's no real opportunity to use them right now anyway.

Just for reference,
Hit gold on the 12th of Feb
After reading this thread I reordered some luggage tags on the 5th March which arrived on the 7th March.
In the post box this morning was my gold welcome pack with card and golden ticket. (Looking online it was dispatched on the 5th of March
)
