Hit 75k miles... 1K upgrades deposited [and since removed from account]
Im off to a slow start this year but I just crossed 75k miles this year and about $25k spend.

To my surprise 6 GPU's and 4 RPU's were deposited into my account.

strange... I wonder what will happen when I cross 100k next month?

My money would have been on another set of GPU's and RPU's, except you posted here so will they probably fix this bug they probably introduced with spend thresholds.

I'd guess that they'll eventually catch the mistake in an audit, but hopefully you slip through the cracks...

Well the real question is whether you'll get another set at 100K.

After my recent HNL/GUA mileage run I crossed 75k PQMs but only ~$4k PQDs. I got 2 RPUs today.

If you qualified for the PQD waiver for silver/gold/platinum that wuld be correct.

I'm GS, off to a slow start this year also, just passed 75k, and only 2 RPU were deposited into my account last week.

You're right, I forgot I still hold this card, which waives the PQD requirement up to Platinum.

I guess I'm Platinum for 2015 at least

I'll apply all the RPU and GPU immediately to 2015 bookings, then switch to the desired segments later

If your status is correct, its probably GS requal; when I got it midyear last year, it came with GPUs and RPUs as if I'd hit 1k, even though I was shy of 100k PQM.
