1k status on united / CO Match
I tried searching and couldnt come up with anything (I think in general my search skills are terrible), so sorry for the repost if it is.....
I flew 100k miles last year on co (elite miles), but my united status still reads premiere executive, not 1k. Its been like that for a while. Is there just a delay with all the updates happening or is there a way to push to get that changed? I will be flying some UA tickets and it would be nice to be recognized as 1k.
Thanks!

I'm in the same boat - credited 97K on CO, 3.1K on MP; my MP still says 1P. My last flight was on 12/30, but still no change to my linked MP ststus, and no SWUs. I know it can take 10-14 days for the linked account activity to transfer between the programs, so I'm planning on giving it another week before trying to call.
I'm just worried that with the end of the year switch over they're only passing information about 2012 flights to each other now, meaning it will never switch. I doubt that's the issue, but it's possible.

please keep us updated on your progress, I will do the same.

I called CO elite desk today, I was told it did take a couple weeks to match it over in UA.
I also asked her the complimentary upgrade situation, sounds like to me:
In CO flight, it still will be Plat, so same as those with 75K miles in 2011, but in UA, we will be treated as 1K.
I missed a couple regional upgrade certs issued by this year(I had 2 in Nov, 2011, then 2 a few days ago), she said they have computer problem, it should be re-issued in a few days.
Since last Nov, CO has not issued any SWU cert, which will be done soon.
The 2 systems will be 1 by April 1.
Above is what I heard from CO today.

It's been 3 weeks for me since I have flown over 75,000 EQM on CO and I have not seen my Regional Upgrades on United as of yet. On the CO website it states it can take up to 4 weeks for Regional Upgrades to post to your account. It took me 3 weeks to get it registered to my CO account, but it is not on my linked acount with United as of yet. So I believe it will take while. Good Luck to you.

I felt a lot more comfortable when my regionals posted to my OP account on Sunday. Still no SWUs, but that's happening to everyone on OP, so I figure it will happen soon enough.
So, last day of travel - 12/30
CR1 posted - 1/15 (Exp 1/2013)
1K status posts - 1/16
SWU -1/28 (Exp Jan 2013)
