How often can I status match?
In November of 2017 I status matched to National Executive Elite from IHG Platinum Plus. In March of 2018 I used the National Executive Elite status to status match to Hertz Presidents Circle. National just downgraded me back to Executive Status and I am worried that a downgrade from Hertz PC to 5 star is also imminent. I don't really care too much about the difference between Executive and Executive Elite status but I would be really disappointed to be downgraded from PC to Five Star. How long should I wait before trying to status match back to Executive Elite Status and President's Circle status?
Should I attempt to status match back to EE immediately while I still have PC status? Once the PC status expires I think I could use IHG Platinum Plus, Marriott Gold or Sixt Platinum to try and rematch to Executive Elite. I think I am going to need the Executive Elite Status to get President's Circle again. Any insight would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks! My bigger concern was if it was ok to immediately try and status match again or should I wait. I am worried about them looking at my account, realizing that I just had a status match, denying the request and then flagging my account or doing something that will make it more difficult to status match again down the line.

In the same boat. Actively keep PC status with Hertz, but status match across to Nat'l and Sixt to have some status incase of IRROPS or the occasional good deal on a rental car.
EE expired end of Feb 2019, I submitted Status Match materials online a few days after the expiration and I have yet to hear back on the match (positive or negative). Account still shows the downgraded status of just Exec w/ Nat'l. Hopefully I can get it back up to EE. I have several programs I can use to match from, but I would hope my PC card I sent in takes care of it.
