TK Gold Card
I have had the same experience, even after posting several flights to Turkish Airlines - it is a joke! Where is my card? Even if I fly them to Istanbul, how can I be guaranteed I will receive my Gold benefits until I get the card? Am flying Thai in a few days - is a print out enough? What else can I do to prove *G and get lounge access?

Mine arrived yesterday, despite me being matched last May.
So no use yesterday when flying MUC-DUS-NCL
Lounge dragons on LH said simply: no card, no entry.
No problems when using Swiss though.
You would have thought if they can code share on flights, they can share basic FF info between airlines

ANA Status Match to Gold?
I'm registered to that ANA campaign for Platinum..15000 PREMIUM points required
One question: I'm Gold with AF/KLM FB, Gold with AirBerlin and Gold with Turkish, all of them will expire on July, is there a way to match my status to Gold with ANA Mileage Club? (I have 40000 unused Miles on my ANA Club account..).
PS: Feel free to move my post to the appropriate Status Match thread, if necessary

Requested status match from AA Platinum to AB Topbonus Gold. Approved and received Topbonus Gold card and 2 luggage tags within 1 month. Card arrived while in Thailand but was able to use lounges in Bangkok, Abu Dhabi, and Dusseldorf by showing gate-keepers my Topbonus status on my ipad.

Does anyone know of any way to match my *A Gold with SAS to SkyTeam? Will most likely be moving from Norway to the US this fall where the airport is only served by Delta. Already tried KLM/AF, but not suprisingly they said they don't give statusmatches.
I also got a 5 months Gold Card with Air Berlin (status match challenge), but I won't fly the required amount of times to keep it after that, if that's any help for any status match.
