Any results on this? I registered, was accepted, flew one RT 3 weeks ago and I am still a "member" status. (Was never up-statused after registering -- were they supposed to?) Miles posted all right. Do I have to nag them for this? Haven't had a UA (CO) status in a decade at least.

Bonus Mile or Status Match promo from late 2015
Has anyone received the bonus miles from the following promo?
I chose bonus miles (instead of status match), flew qualifying flights in December but still haven't had the bonus miles post...

We are offering top-tier flyers of other airlines a comparable status in the United MileagePlus program, plus a bonus of 10,000 award miles when you meet flight requirements within 90 days. Or you can choose to earn up to 3,000 bonus award miles for each segment flown during the promotion period for up to 50,000 award miles.
To take advantage of this opportunity first register and choose your bonus by December 31, 2015. Then book your travel by February 29, 2016, and fly between November 1, 2015, and February 29, 2016.

I signed up for the miles as well and haven't seen them yet - I only just remembered this promotion today thanks to discussion about another targeted promotion (that I didn't get).
Any thoughts on how long to wait before writing?

Their response:
Upon review, it appears that you did not meet the requirements for our Premier Status Match promotion. Please note that you will only be eligible for the promotions offered to you when you meet flight requirements within 90 days.
But their link refers to the standard status match page, not the targeted one, which required one flight in 90 days. Mine was within two months of registering.
Once again, staff not knowing all the promos that are out there. But it's all in the emails by which they offered me a status match, and I complied with.
When you make, or change, your travel plans based on a company's "You're good to go" message, they are responsible. Or should be.
