Just qualified LT Platinum (sort of)
Began a 4 night stay July 24 in Dublin last week, with 49 nights YTD and 9 years platinum. So morning of the 25th I'd completed night 50. Evening of the 28th, nights / points had posted confirming I'd hit 53. Interesting behaviors across the SPG digital estate since then. Mobile app still says Lifetime Gold. SPG Dashboard shows 0 nights / 0 years platinum left to go, but still shows gold for life. An action box congratulates me on achieving platinum and choose your gift here. Clicking on it takes me to a new window, where I'm informed new gift choices will be presented at a later date. No emails from SPG about requalifying for Platinum or achieving Lifetime Platinum.
For those wondering if July 27th was truly a hard date to choose 10 SNA's for Platinum status, that does appear to be the case. I considered checking out of my hotel on the 25th, and checking back in to ensure I got under the wire, but I was there for work and didn't want the hassle.
