Status Credit/Eligible Sector question

[Jude Starr]

So, our Family Pooling problems have been fixed (thanx to help provided on this forum! :mrgreen: ) and my husband's points and SCs are happily coming to me! YAY!

Now, my SCs have showed as of today at 255, which should mean (if I understand correctly) that I go to Silver. Does that happen automatically, or do I have to do something?

I have noticed that the "Eligible Sectors required" seem to have remained at "2", no matter how many flights I have flown...it has been like that for months. Is that correct or is there something I am missing? Do only certain kinds of flights qualify as "Eligible Sectors"?

Sorry for the silly questions, but this is my first experience with status of any kind, so I'm not sure how it all works.

I think eligible sectors are only counted from August this year.

OK, I think it was the way I was reading the website - as far as I can see I require a minimum of 2 eligible sectors, and I have 9...if I am reading it right. So maybe the status upgrade just takes time and happens automatically. I do tend to get a bit impatient about these things!

If you take another look at the website there should be a little 2 next to the eligible sectors line and this refers down he page to this:

2 Eligible sectors will only be a part of your membership assessment from August 2012

You know, I have totally been reading that as 2011. Doh!

OK, so the status upgrade should just happen automatically then, I assume.

Should be pretty soon.
