Hi Folks,
My membership end-date is in Aug. Should I have an early reset if CX continues to provide club points relief?
If I reset it now, will my membership end-date change to April?
The Aug membership end-date works pretty well for me. If I reset it, it will be a bit difficult for me to retain my GO status.
Cheers

For those expiring between Jan to April 2021, I'd suggest calling the MPC line to enquire. I have just called and they said that they are still looking at it. Not sure what their plans are but if we live in countries which have inbound and outbound bans in place for at least another 6 to 9 months, we can't earn points. And I know that this is a First World problem.

Just as an anecdote, I have MPC Gold with August year end, and I got the email message renewing for a further 12 months. Plus 65 tier points last month.
My Gold was either a soft landing from Diamond, even though virtually zero earnings on the last 4 years which includes the 3 allowed holiday years, or AMEX spend, not sure which.
Just for comparison my American EXP which has the same year end for all members, 31/12, rolled over for everyone 12 months including Upgrade Certificates, and reduced earnings to reach the tier targets.
Stay safe!

My DM membership just renewed in April (now expires April 2021). I don't foresee travel to pick up again until at least September (at the earliest). Do you think it's worth taking a membership holiday after the 140CPs hit the account this month? Can I retroactively credit the future flights (in May to Sept) to my account after the membership holiday period? Should I bank on CX providing some sort of concession re renewal next year?

I need some advice 
can anyone help?
Expiry Date: June 2020
Grade: Gold, CP Now: 935 (April CP relief excluded)
Ticket Hold: 1 set 4 sector 100CP (All CX&KA, July and August)
Ticket canceled due to COVID-19: 1set 6 sector 160CP (All CX&KA)
Should I
1) Email CX after April CP arrived and ask if I could upgrade to Diamond
2) Wait for CX's announcement to see if they'll still provide CP relief on May and June (70 CP less to diamond after June )
3) Just renew Gold
Thanks a lot.

Worst of the Worst
Anyone whose membership is expiring on 30Apr?
Very shocking and unfair by CX! No one can fly since Feb til now and I don’t think everything g can be resumed to normal until at least July or a August...
Any suggestion to raise our voice to CX
