I got baggage tags, credit card, and Eurobonus card. No phone sticker for, as my base is Japan.

Well: the discussion was actually not about the gifted Gold Card for Diamonds. That is a nice, and tangible perk, and has already been gifted to my long-suffering spouse.

The complaint which led to the suggestion of selling advantage cards on finn.no was my and others' complaint about the extremely meager choice of items in the "goodie bag": two different advantage cards and a yearly pass for an amusement park in Oslo. I understood the point about finn.no as being about selling the advantage cards (a restaurant card and a concierge card) on finn.no.

I'll try to do the same. Have been waiting now for over a month and only got my phone sticker.

I did get both Bagage Tags and Phone Tag together in a standard letter from SAS - but not fine fancy welcome package.

It took over 1 month to get it from my qualification period started.

So they most likely have a big delay - so the EBD must have arrived as a big surprise for SAS.

Luggage tags and smart pass

Co-branded EBD cards: yes
boarding passes: still saying EBG
Luggage tags: still sending me EBG tags.
Smart pass: still sending me an EBG smart pass

I was upgraded to EBD 1 May. Was recently informed via the chat function on sas website that EBD tags and smartpass do not/not excist. Rather poor for a top tier level. Thanks.

Have just been online with Rikke from CS:

"Jeg kan desvrre ikke se linket, men der ikke nogen her i afdelingen der er blevet informeret om at det er kommet i en diamond udgave endnu, men hvis det er, burde du kunne bestille det inde p din online profil, i diamond udgave."

I think they are right concerning the smartpass. Due to system issues all EBD members still have a EBG number, so it goes to expect that the same will apply to the smartpass.

But for luggage tags they do exist - Im looking at one right now .

For what concerns the EBG-prefix: It will still be used for another year or so for diamond members. This is as it cannot be used untill all the systems of the other *A carriers have been updated to recognize the prefix in the number. This is, as you maybe can understand, a very time consuimg proccess.

Are you sure it wasn't saying padion?

I have seen some diamond smartpass-tags on phones, but most diamond members report recieving smartpasses saying gold.

It sounds unbelievable to me that this is implemented in such a way that any changes in numbering of any member airline requires reimplementation in all of them. After all when you get a new number, all airlines almost immediately know what is your status. It should not require changes in the system. We should just get new numbers, and they should be mapped back to Gold. I understand that other airlines will still display SK*G for Diamonds, as there is no level above gold in *A.
