Knew I had been status matched but unsure for how long.. can't complain with that!
 
Im glad that they considered it, now to find a OW equivalent and I'm set for the next 2 years :mrgreen:
 
If its a 2 year status match they provide, I might wait until near the end of my WP year to submit. Maximise the benefit.

Just be aware that there seems to be a bit of luck associated with the status match. This was my third attempt over 6 months...
 
I used my new Miles & Smiles card to get into the Koru Club in NZ earlier this week, having recently fallen down from Gold Air NZ. I even felt a bit guilty flashing a card with which I have earnt 0 points. The guilt left me pretty quickly.....

It took a good 3 weeks between asking for the status match and getting a reply.

How long did it take for the card to arrive?

I got matched two weeks ago and heading to the US late June for heaps of domestic on United and would love the card to arrive.

Could perhaps print out your card from TK? Might be a good backup anyway...
 
TK used to claim that you need to start some points activity (specifically from flying, I believe, and possibly from TK) before they would send someone a card, even matched elites.

When I got matched a while ago, no card came. Eventually I decided to send them an email and ask them where my card was, and they gave the reason above. But a matter of a month and a bit later a TK Miles & Smiles Elite pack arrived in the mail.
 
My card came about 9 months before my first travel with them, and less than a month after receiving the acceptance email.
 
They now asking for both detsiled statement and card.

That must have changed in the past two weeks then, I just uploaded a copy of my Flying Blue Gold account statement which actually had no qualifying flights showing at the stage and was granted *A Gold.
 
This is what I got:

We have received your e-mail message dated 29.05.2013

The Gold card copy you sent us is due to expire on 06/2013
Therefor we kindly need to ask you to send us a copy of your new card showing your new expiry date which will show us that you have extende your gold level for another period.

Kindly also add new statement copies for the last 2 month period.

In order to evaluate your request about Gold membership status match, we would like you to send the copy of your Gold memberhsip card together with the copy of your membership statement by using the link below;

I've re-qualified for Platinum, but haven't got my new card yet. Also have no activity on QF account since I requal'd in January (for a June 30 date) and have been flying VA since then to keep my Plat status. Looks like I'll have to wait until August/September to try again after I've got some activity to show.

Just got matched yesterday, 3 weeks after applying and the email I got from TK said that the full kit has been sent.
