Exactly. Now I am some 100k shorter of miles, but not unhappy to be part of the 4x promo anyway so happy all in all! I just got that kid-candy feeling after the double-quadruple but now corrected back down on the roots again

I call on those who were disappointed for being excluded from this promo, especially those who have alternative elite statuses, to ignore TK for a couple of months at least. If you're dead bent on using M&S, then maybe a different star alliance airline. That way only, we can send a message through to their revenues and might even prompt them to make a similar promo. Again, I intend this message to those who have alternative elite memberships as me. If no promo was given, then no loss at all. TK is full of problems anyway.

A bit of schadenfreude for those who weren't targeted or who didn't "enjoy" the glitch (however brief).

My account statement now shows 160K miles to expire in May 2020, with -130K miles to expire in June 2020.

So unless I earn and burn 160K before then (unlikely), it looks like whatever miles I have in May 2020 will expire. (I have no faith that TK M&S will actually be able to fix this glitch either)

Nice promo, though, even though the execution has been mediocre.

So, TK in a nutshell... So I guess this was the bait-n-switch as some people feared.
So, as the longest follow-up ever. I actually received this promotion as it was advertised. I ended with almost 6 years of *G from one trip. I was just a little bit short of re-qual, so I needed a few more miles to add to the re-qualification. (I happened to stumble upon this post while looking for another one of mine, that why I write this, 2 years later. )

You got me all excited about the return of this promo...

One has to reckon that it did work out for TK. I made it to E+, decided I rather like the upgrade certificates, and now TK are getting me to book semi-flex fares with them instead of a cheap J fare from any *A airline...
