I did four flights after getting targeted but only got the extra miles credited for one segment. All were international, two between Spain and Turkey, two between Turkey and China. Filed a ticket. Five days since last segment, no change yet. Also have enough status miles for requalifying now but my expiration date has not changed on the site.

After flying to BKK on 2/6 and back on 5/6 promo miles posted yesterday, status changed today to Elite plus.
Where can I find the upgrade voucher?
Visible online and usable aswell or do you always have to call?
The next set will be awarded- on 1.1 or on 16.6.18 when the second year of Eilte plus starts?

Miles successfully credited within less than a week after the trip. Amazing! Now it's time to add few extra miles to renew Elite Plus and find the best value for redemption (The tricky part? Luckily, there is always something.).
I hope they won't stop with promotions like this, even though, even if it's just once within next 2 or 4 years, I'd still be fine with it.

Interesting. Personally, I'm just glad about the 240k miles I gathered from this promo. ^

I don't particularly mind losing the redeemable miles because I know errors are liable to be reversed, but instead of just buying a ticket to IST to lock in my E+ renewal during the 4x promo, I burned some of my short-lived miles bonanza.
Which now means I'm not sure whether I will get my E+ renewed, and my TK miles balance is looking poor again...

TK can barely manage to run their own social media feeds much less participate on FT, and have proven time and time again that they cannot read and understand English language emails and respond with anything other than a standard form. The vast majority of TK customer service agents contacted had no clue about this promotion other than to reply "sorry, it's targeted" to people who were targeted.
But somebody important at TK noticed a few cryptic comments on Flyertalk and decided to audit select M&S accounts even though it is close to impossible to connect FT nicknames with actual real life identities? I suppose... or whoever was running the promo within TK simply took another look at the numbers on the final day of the promo and fixed any errors he/she saw.

Yes Craig, agents are inept, etc etc. You really think that no one at TK, nor not anyone they know ever looks at FT and would perhaps inform them? You think that FT is a super secret thing that no one knows about?
And no, they are not auditing select accounts, everyone who was coded wrong and got too many miles will have them removed, so it is really something that is done quite quickly and effectively by just adjusting a bit of code.
