Is this the old post-star-alliance card or the older pre-star-alliance card? That I keep both is a sign that I will be making an appearance on "Hoarders" sometime in the future.

I was able to use my Lifetime PC card in the US Club last week without a problem, but I wonder how long the US Club will continue to honor a Lifetime PC Card instead of a Lifetime UC card?

Anyway, if you go to a UC (at least one of the legacy CO clubs), they will take your card and request a new one be sent. This doesn't cost $25, but it also prevents you from getting into other *A clubs, as they cannot look up your info.

You're joking, right? They didn't do this to me at EWR or FLL last week.

I should have clarified: if you are in need of a new card (because yours is unreadable by the strip and/or the writing on the front) and ask, they will keep your card and request a new one be sent to you.

Still using old Cont lifetime presidents club, how long will these be usable at other than United clubs? at united clubs with new desk agents?
I 'asked Alex" but got no response other than your message received.
Paid a fair amount for lifetime and want to keep using the card but really we should get a new card with lifetime united

ne. I've not seen a new card either. The clubs merged a couple of months ago and they certainly know where I live.

I kinda like thinking that us LT PC members are among the last people to travel with a CO-branded service. FWIW, I still find it easier to use my NW WC card in some Asian airports (recently ICN, SIN, BKK) than my DL SC card. The server at lunch remarked about my Presidential Plus credit card from CO...

I inquired at the UA club when checking in last week and asked the agent about new cards. The agent said they had seen new ones.
I called the UA club and queried the phone agent. At first she said the old cards still worked, but when I said the desk agent told me they had seen new cards - she gave in and agreed to send me a new card.
Let's see if I get.
