how many RPUs for becoming Premier Plat?

I previously dropped from Plat to Gold but requalified for Plat at beginning of Dec 2014. After I requalified for Plat, UA deposited two RPUs into my MP account.

I thought that I would be Plat for the year in which I qualified plus the following calendar year. In my case, this would mean Plat status for 2014 and 2015. Accordingly, I thought that I would receive 2 RPUs for 2014 and an additional 2 RPUs for 2015.

Should I receive 2 RPUs for 2015? MP service center says they have not yet deposited RPUs for 2015. I am trying to plan out my travels. Thank you!

If the ones you got expire in January 2016, they should be the only ones you'll get. They don't do the January deposits like they used to - you get them deposited as you earn them and they're good until the the same time the status expires.

No - you get two, it's irrelevant when you cross the threshold.

I spoke to an experienced agent to refund co-pay upgrade that didn't clear, and she provided the same information. Given UA's track record in disseminating inaccurate or incorrect information, I thought I'd ask those here who know better!

So I understand that I will receive another pair of RPUs when I cross the 75,000 mile threshold this year and requalify for 2016 Plat. Thanks for sharing your knowledge!
