How do you know when you have been status matched and granted Gold Elite status?

Did Goldpointsplus at carlson dot com send an email back to inform about the upgrade?

They send an email back and you can also see the status online at goldpointsplus.com on the right side of the page in the "Welcome" box/line after logging into the account.

They are very quick to handle things during the US workweek. Emails sent to them over the weekend may have to wait for a workweek day.

Many other hotel programs do match status, while some others provide a fast-track path to comparable status level.

For example, if you are disappointed with Hilton HHonors devaluation of HHonors points, then you can fax a copy of your HHonors Diamond card and statement to Hyatt and they will grant a status match to Hyatt Diamond.

Hyatt GoldPassport is a great program and Diamond status actually means a lot more at Hyatt than it does at Hilton.

Do they want a screenshot that shows recent activity as well (I believe the SPG page had a summary there of how many stays you've had this year, how many still needed for X status, etc.)?

I got my wife SPG-Gold status via an invite (as she wasn't already registered) but of course the account will show 0 stays, 0 miles (though it is G). I assume that Radisson isn't so gullible as to match SPG-G with no activity on the account?

Have the wife just send in a copy of her SPG-G card to Radisson, requesting Radisson Gold, and see what happens.

So they were kind enough to match my status - how can I see online until when my new status will be valid? Thanks.

I just sent an email from the contact us page asking for Gold Elite to match my PC Plat. I'll let you know how I get on.

Marriott Gold -- like Marriott Platinum -- has gotten Goldpoints Plus Gold.

To answer my own question - status is valid until 02/11. Interestingly, they also offer that I can make 4 members of my family Gold members.

Indeed, I did this for my fiancee and she now has her own gold card printed (in her name) but on my account. She thinks I'm a geek and probably won't use it but it's there anyway.

Forgot to report back.

I got a reply the next day offering Gold Elite status, I just had to email a copy of my statement or card. I sent a copy of my statement and the next day I received an email confirming my status upgraded to Gold Elite. Strangely though the Goldpoints plus site reflects the status change but the Radission site still shows Silver Elite.

Great response times though, very impressed. ^

things must have changed from the spring of 2008 when I was doing a number of Radisson stays and I called the CSR's and was flat out denied any status match and that was after offering to provide documentation of MR Plat, HY Diamond and SPG Plat...

don't need it anymore but like I said things must have changed
