Breakout Bonus Credited!

Logged in this morning to see my BoB PQP have hit. I am now over the line for 1K again but....status hasn't updated. A little disconcerting to see my points over 15k but still having a message to keep flying to make status.

Assuming the system just hasn't caught up yet?

I'm in the same boat. My existing PlusPoints haven't been extended from 07/22 to 01/23 either.

I was in the same boat, didn't get the complimentary extension and it seems only some of my PP had been extended to July 2022.

Waiting to see where I am at with UA by the end of the year.

Mine posted in the latter category. I did receive BoB PQPs last night.

Mine hit as well . . .

I did have 1K extended, but the BoB put me past Plat qualifying. No 40 plus points. And no extension of others (which I'm not sure will happen).

I am in this category and I had 1,000 PQP post overnight backdated to 9/28, which was the date of my first flight of my only trip during the promo.

Hmm, that's not what I wanted to hear. I wonder why mine haven't posted, then. Here's my situation...as of July 27, 2021 (the beginning of the promo period), I was just under $5K PQP short of requalifing for platinum. During the promo period, I flew 4 trips (4 different PNRs) during the promo period, for a total of just over $5K PQP. So, I technically met the FttF requirements during the promo period, but I *also* met the requirements to requalify organically during the promo period. Because of that, I should be eligible for the BoB PQP, right? I'm really hoping mine post soon (or, at some point, that is)...

I am wondering if UA is going to come out saying that those who qualified via FttF or BoB won't be eligible to receive additional PP?

Recognition of newly qualified or requalified status usually takes a few days, as does deposit of new PlusPoints.

Kind of what I had figured. Will check back at the end of the week and see if anything has moved.

Got my BoB over night and bumped up to 1K! No extra PPs at the moment in my account.

Will finish the year at 37 segments and 13,515 pqp, just squeaking by.

I got my Platinum BoB as well which knocked me to 1K...and reflected as such when I log in. However I did not get the 280 PP either... Also the My Status page still shows me as Platinum. Seems they are having IT issues maybe

I think that would lead to a serious revolt. Plus, a number of people who qualified via FttF have gotten plus points. I think it's a relatively small number by comparison who will do it by BoB, because those are by the terms of the program people who didn't fly enough in Aug-Nov. to hit FttF, but either with Dec. flying or some Aug.-Nov. flying below 3000 PQP were still within range after getting 1500-2250 PQP of 1K.

I know this is a weird year, but in past years flights would post (with PQPs) and status wouldn't immediately adjust - sometimes took 2-3 days. And before that those flights seemed to take an extra long time to post (as if UA were verifying/auditing PQMs to ensure qualifying).

I got the BoB and the additional Plus Points as expected

(I had already qualified as 1K so this was just 2x20 PP because it took me from just under 19k PQP to over 21k. Also for reference I didn’t qualify for FtF because my main recent flights were on LX)
