I had the same question. Haven't seen anyone post a response. I have coach seats to Europe next month and would love to use the upgrades!

We were able to use upgrade certificates three days after CP was posted.

Yep, the whole CP package arrived about 3-4 weeks afterward.. and I enjoyed adding my lapchild this morning on the CP line, which I used to gate 50% of the time when I called PLT anyhow... I could tell by the accent.... good ole Winston Salem!

I also was not aware that I could get past Silver during the trial...until I got the e-mail indicating I've flown enough miles to lock up Silver for 2011 AND, "Hey, keep going while you're at it. For 7,xxx more miles, we'll give you Gold!"
Would've also done HSJ but for my situation, it was cheaper/easier/more efficient to just go for Gold through the trial.

Yikes.

I guess it's no biggie b/c I'm still hitting *G with the h/s/j, but think about how nice it would've been to hit PP with it instead of GP? And it would have only cost me an extra $80-100

I got my 4th point before the 30 segments was completed but that shouldn't matter. It's possible that HSJ updated first but someone in this thread mentioned they were on the trial and HSJ bumped them up. Out of all the people I talked, no one has said anything that would make me think the status bump won't happen, so I'll be patient for a few more days.
--Dear Mr. xxxx,
Thank you for contacting US Airways.
You've earned a new level of Preferred status with the 'Hop, Skip &
Jump' promotion. However, you also qualified for Gold status through
your trial Preferred program with the same flights. Therefore, as you
have dual enrollment in promotions, your 'Hop, Skip & Jump' level will
not take effect until the Trail program ends on 10/22/2010. Your status
will be moved up one level from your status that day.
We value your business and want to thank you for your continued support
of US Airways.
Sincerely,
xxxx xxxx

This means that I could even push it to CP if I want to. However, I am not entirely sure if I really wanna go for extra five segments to get to PP before HSJ bumps me up to CP.

That's BS! I got a "progress" email telling me I needed an extra 3,000 miles to hit silver, but once I did...? NOTHING! How was I supposed to know?!
