It is all on the BA FAQs: https://www.britishairways.com/en-bg...s-and-benefits
Please note, Members with a Tier Point Collection Year end date in 2023 will see the normal Tier Point threshold in the ‘My Account’ area on ba.com and the British Airways app from the start of their Tier Point collection year.
To renew or upgrade your membership under the 25% Tier threshold reduction for the following year, you will need to have flown the minimum number of British Airways or Iberia flights. This is two flights for Bronze membership, and four flights for Silver and Gold membership.

Fingers crossed therefore that BA's generally faultless IT will recognise the exact date I crossed the line. Oh, wait.....

So today I received the following. A bit odd, given I had easily renewed already. Wonder if it's a blanket thing?
Dear Flashware,
We know that during your current Membership year we haven’t consistently delivered the level of service you’ve come to expect from British Airways, particularly as a frequent flier.
To say thank you for your continued loyalty and support during the past year, we’ll be renewing your Gold Tier Status for one more year, irrespective of how many Tier Points you’ve earned in your current Tier Point Collection Year.
You don’t need to do anything. We’ll automatically apply another year of Gold Tier Status to your account within the next few days.
Thank you again for your understanding, patience and loyalty. We look forward to welcoming you back on board soon.
With best wishes
Your Executive Club Team
