Weird, I went from 1K to Gold, but even refreshing the app still shows 1K moments ago. I know UA isn't showing me any love, as I got the Gold kit in the mail... Meanwhile, my other accounts reflect my new, lower status. I'll take the time to update my FT info another day, its to late this evening.

Past reports suggest too late, once expired they are gone, but call ASAP -- still 31 Jan on the west coast

Sigh, after 18 years as a 1K, I am now a Plat (for life). It was a nice ride!

Yep, I'm heading to retirement, too. Dropped from 1k for first time in about 15 years, but have platinum for life. Haven't received the new card/kit for 2018. Hope to get it soon before I travel on Lufthansa. I don't want to be without it when I attempt to enter their lounge.

Lost Gold this year and should have nothing. App card shows Gold still, with no expiration. I'd imagine IT will fix it.

Delta already took my Gold.

Dropped from Plat to Gold, which I don't expect I'll even notice; the chief reason I was excited to make Plat was fee-free award changes, and they snatched that away from me. [shakes tiny fist]

In fact I may not even fly UA in 2018. DL and B6 lie-flat BOS<>SFO are both generally cheaper than UA right now, and I can get better use of my remaining UA miles on LH or LX.

RPUs earned in 2017 are supposed to be good until Jan 31 of 2019.
By chance, did the system perhaps pull RPUs out of sequence for you when you applied them?

Well it couldn't be possible since since earning them, i never used any. Waiting for the MileagePlus desk to open and see what they have to say
Very annoyed
