Re-qual'd Nov (early); status shows "pending"...

Qualified for 1K mid-December and mystatus.united.com has said "Pending" since then... until today. Now says "Shipped [...] should arrive in 4-6 weeks."

Yes, if you are not allowed entrance to a LH lounge based on your ticket on their own airline, they DEMAND to see your UA card.

I requalified in Nov. My RPUs and GPUs have credited. Packet has not been received yet.

Re-qualified mid-December, mystatus.united.com says "shipped", will take 4-6 weeks. USPS does not take that long, so I wonder what shipped actually means -- do they batch shipment?

IME, it doesn't take 4 weeks, much less 6, once they mark it as "shipped." Could be they're just covering their bases. I don't recall what class mail it ships out as--some bulk mail classes can take several weeks.

Qualified again in Mid October, status says pending? I have never had it take so long to get the packet after hitting 1K.

I re-qualified mid-December. Checking "my status" today and it finally indicates "shipped'.

I recall last year it did not take 4-6 weeks, though they probably batch a mailing of this size so it should be a very general indication and not necessarily indicative on individual kits.

Still waiting

I looked at the postage from the 2015 envelope. It says, " INT'L PRIORITY AIRMAIL" Posted from TWIN CITIES, MN. Last year it took less than 2 weeks for international delivery.

So, I have a trip including LH, TK, and SA coming up shortly and still have no 2016 card. I just called in, but the agent told me that "no one" had their cards yet and had no information...obviously wrong.

Two questions:
1) When I go to mystatus.united.com it has no information about pending or shipped at all.
2) My iPhone app only shows that my status is valid until 1/2016. The website also has a January 2016 expiration date if I want to print my card. Of course, I requalified back in September. Has anyone else's digital cards updated to 2017?

Thanks for the help. Waiting for gold card in Canada.
