Frequent Traveller Status
Mine says it expires next month - how do I renew it, or will I renew it automatically?
Not that I really see many benefits from it, but if I can keep it, why not, I guess...
As an aside, to LH miles ever expire?
Thanks!

In order for your status to continue without a break you should have 'renewed' your status either in 2013 or 2014. After the end of February you will be a blue member but once you reach 35,000 status miles or 30 flights in 2015 you will be a Frequent Traveller until February 2018.
Once you lose your Frequent Traveller status your LH/Miles and More miles will expire after 36 months.

If in either of 2013 or 2014 you collected 35000 status miles (*A) or flew 30 segments on LH group airlines, your status has been renewed automatically.
If you still have status, your miles won't expire. If your status has finished, countdown of 3 years starts now. Having a M&M credit card saves your award miles from expiring.

Sorry, I should have specified - I get FF automatically via the oil club (I thought it was oil-only and that the status from miles/segments had a different name). Since it is automatic, that is why I was confused that it is expiring!

From the Oil & Energy Club terms and conditions

the member does not requalify for membership during this time, or until membership is
