I would imagine it's something like:

100k mile tier = Platinum
50k mile tier = Gold
25k mile tier = Silver

Do note that status is not earned based directly on miles flown; rather, it's a certain number of status credits / tier points for flights in a certain mileage range. Booking class also affects the number of status credits earned. It's all on the web at..:

I sent in my application about a week ago and still no change. I am using Malaysia Airlines Enrich Silver though. I wonder if they will honor MH?

United 1K already matched to plat. With all the mechanical issues happening over at UA -- can't wait to try out VA on my next flights. The product looks top notch and the new program seems great (especially once we get Delta and Virgin America EQMs).

Sent our Garuda silvers over a week ago. Think maybe they are prioritizing plat gold silver. Just a guess on my part

It may also be that some programs are easier to match/ verify than others. With QF for example, all those doing the matching would know what the relevant cards looked like and which tier matches which. I imagine that with some other programs it's a bit more work to verify and match to the appropriate level.

Mrs VH-RMD is still not yet matched (QFF Gold) but I have been (QFF Plat) and hers was sent minutes before mine.

A friend of mine who lodged his VN Gold after mine has been matched - I do not believe there is any pattern to it.
