Got my Silver package. It is missing a physical membership card! Considering they upped the spend last year to $3K just to get lousy Silver, you'd think they give us a physical plastic card. So little effort to appreciate your customers. They already reduced most of the perks of Silver. I only fly United to get E+ when I can and to try to make 1MM BIS miles.

I haven't had too many issues with the front-line employees for the most part, but the management/white collar morons running this airline are a joke.

According to mystatus my 1K kit is "Pending" so I assume it will follow in a couple weeks.
Update: 1K Kit received today (December 18th -- 10 days after the Plat kit mentioned above). FWIW, 1K Qualifying flights flown on 12NOV and posted on 14NOV.

I re-qualified my 1K Thanksgiving weekend and my kit is pending.

Do the 1K kits contain the yellow hand wrap? I lost mine earlier this year and would like another.

First time 1K and mine didn't include the luggage wrap. Curious if that's shipped separately or if it's been discontinued...

It is separate and there have been recent reports of folks receiving the wrap. Some needed to request it.

Qualified for Silver in late October, and received the kit today. No physical card, but one Silver luggage tag.

Received my Platinum card today. Qualified in mid September and have not flown UA since then (moved the rest of my flying to AS and BA). The kit is the same as last year but at least it looks slightly nicer.

Hit gold back in early October, received the kit today.

Too bad since that time I've hit platinum then 1K, not expecting the 1K packet for at least a month or two.

So for those of you (us? ) who make it to GS in January, will another kit be shipped? (I haven't qualified for GS, just hoping I do)...
