I had done the Marriot Bonvoy Platinum to Singapore Krisflyer Gold status match challenge. Then used the feedback form, sent a screenshot of my digital SQ Gold card, my SQ activity (which were admittedly not a lot of flights), and photo of my passport. Initially, I was sent an e-mail saying they could not fulfill my request. I waited a week and then sent a new feedback form with the same documents. This time, I was told to go into a TK sales office to verify documents. After going to a local TK Sales office, they submitted the documents, as well as notifying the main office that I had an upcoming flight with TK. I used my SQ Gold number for the TK flight because I wanted to use my SQ Gold privileges, and was told my request had been rejected due to not using my TK membership number. After emailing explaining why I used SQ Gold number, they told me if I use my TK number on the return flight, they will reevaluate the application. Flew the return leg using TK membership number, and then asked them to reevaluate. A few days later received an e-mail confirming the match and explaining the status match challenge (TK international flight within 4 months will extend the status to a year, asking them to confirm if I need to fly 15k miles on TK to extend to 2 years)

Hello, First I never manage to send the request via "Membership Process". So I went to "Program Rules" and I managed to send the demand. TK asks : - Copy of the passport - Copy of the Platinum Card - Copy of the activity They need to see the "Skyteam Elite Plus" which is hard to find on the app but you can see it if you put your Platinum card on your Google wallet (logo bottom right). Finally after 2 days by mail (very quick for my opinion), I was accepted directly with Elite Status for 4 months. Now the conditions to remain Elite for more are : - You are required to perform at least one international flight with Turkish Airlines in this period. - At the end of the trial period, if you have at least one international flight in your membership account, which you have performed with Turkish Airlines, your Elite membership is extended for 8 more months (i.e. it remains valid for 1 year in total after the match). - If you reach 15,000 Status Miles in the international flights you will perform with Turkish Airlines in the first year of your Elite membership, your membership is extended for 1 more year (i.e. it remains valid for 2 years in total after the match).

Took a few rounds back and forth to show the CM mileage statement with my name and account number (zoom out and screenshot!). They wanted activities for the last 2 months. I hadn't actually flown with *A in the last 2 months, but between starting the challenge and the discussions I took a UA leg credited to CM, which I was able to show, the previous activity was in September. Seemed to do the trick! (I don't know if an upcoming long-haul booking in J with Turkish helped swing the deal....). I was hoping for Elite Plus to be honest, but won't complain! Now to convert my TK elite to Flying Blue Gold... Will report back!

I have followed the steps just like other users had reported. Sent a feedback using their feedback form and selecting "membership processes". Uploaded copy of my digital membership card, which must be valid for at least two more months, and a screenshot of my account statement showing flights takes the past year. They need to see your name and surname on the same file, so I have merged two pdfs in one, as I couldn't download a report from Delta meeting both these requirements. I got a response very quickly, namely in less than one business day. They matched me to elite with the below terms: - You are required to perform at least one international flight with Turkish Airlines in this period. - At the end of the trial period, if you have at least one international flight in your membership account, which you have performed with Turkish Airlines, your Elite membership is extended for 8 more months (i.e. it remains valid for 1 year in total after the match). - If you reach 15,000 Status Miles in the international flights you will perform with Turkish Airlines in the first year of your Elite membership, your membership is extended for 1 more year (i.e. it remains valid for 2 years in total after the match).

I requested a Match Status from Emirates Skywards Gold to Turkish Elite through their website going to --> Help section (at the bottom of their website) --> Help Center --> feedback --> new feedback --> Membership Processes. I have uploaded my Gold Membership Card requesting the change. Within 2 days they contacted me asking for a flight statement of the past 2 months, copy of my ID & my Emirates Sjywards Membership Card. In 2 days, they accepted my request. Brilliant! Challenge to remain gold: one international flight within 4 months & 15k miles earned in a year to extend the gold membership one year. Just a walk in the park.

Nevertheless, the match was completed successfully. For AA status proof - attach the card from the app which shows your name, your AA number and the status expiry date. For AA account history - I printed all activity from my account into a PDF (using the browser print option) and attached that PDF.

Opened a TK MS account. Contacted them via their customer relations form chosing Miles and Smiles membership processes. Sent a cc of passport, screenshot FB card, and a print of activity from the last months from the AF/KL website plus boardingpasses. This went back and forth twice - they needed 'a photo of my membership card' (impossible since FB has no) and an overview of my activity that showed name and FF number. Someone let me know when logging in on the FB website (instead of AF or KL website) you can download your membership card plus a PDF of flight activity including name and FF number. When I sent that, approved in hours with the usual conditions: fly TK international in the next 4 months, accrue another 15k miles for an extra year.

I matched from my Frontier status (of all things!) to Delta Platinum since I had a JFK to ANC flight on Delta, and thus was able to show that on my activity, which I then parlayed to get Turkish Elite. Like other readers here, there was a lot of back and forth, with them sometimes asking me for the same things over and over on the "Feedback' page as directed. Particularly problematic was them asking me for my Platinum status with at least 4mos before expiration (which Delta only gave up to 11/2024- maybe 3mos?). After some back and forth again, they only asked for 2mos, and that's when it was approved for 4mos of Turkish M&S! I will now use this Elite/Star Alliance Gold towards my upcoming trip on EgyptAir and Turkish, and hope that my Turkish international leg will qualify me for extending it another 8mos. We'll see.

I chose the generally known way via the feedback form, gave the details about Volare and then got many questions. I gave them EVERYTHING I had: - ITA Volare - miles&more: FTL - Aegan: Gold - SAS: Silver Then I had a long list of business class flights with Turkish Airlines and a long list of other flights... And today I got the OK. Status is valid for four months - one international flight - another eight months and if I reach 15,000 miles by then (that's two trips to my standard destination and back), I'll get another year - so two years in total!

I attached to the webform a screenshot of my digital Gold card from the app, and a jpg photo of my passport. Within 24 hours they requested the last 2 months of flight activity on my BA Gold card. I submitted my Miles&More activity for the last few months, too, since I travel a lot already on StarAliance. I suggest you submit that with your initial request to speed things up. Within a few hours my request was approved.

Status matched within 2 business days The first 4 months of your Elite membership is considered as the trial period. Within this period, you are required to realize at least one Turkish Airlines international flight in which you gain miles. At the end of the trial period, if your membership account includes at least one Turkish Airlines international flight in which you gained miles, your Elite membership is prolonged for 8 months more.(i.e. it remains valid for 1 year in total after the match). If you reach 15,000 Status Miles in the international flights you will perform with Turkish Airlines in the first year of your Elite membership, your membership is extended for 1 more year (i.e. it remains valid for 2 years in total after the match).

Contacted Turkish Airlines via “Feedback” on their web page. Needed to - (a) create a Miles & Smiles account; (b) provide copy of Qantas FF card (screen grab of Qantas digital card was used) (c) provide copy of name page from passport; (c) provide “a statement for the same membership showing your name, membership number and flights for the previous two months (not boarding pass or ticket)”. This wasn’t immediately easy to do! Match granted for four months trial period, requirements for ongoing status are : “You are required to perform at least one international flight with Turkish Airlines in this period. “At the end of the trial period, if you have at least one international flight in your membership account, which you have performed with Turkish Airlines, your Elite membership is extended for 8 more months (i.e. it remains valid for 1 year in total after the match). “If you reach 15,000 Status Miles in the international flights you will perform with Turkish Airlines in the first year of your Elite membership, your membership is extended for 1 more year (i.e. it remains valid for 2 years in total after the match).”

Applied using the online feedback form, and they responded very quickly. They did ask for my digital card multiple times, and finally they noted that it was because it didn't show the SkyTeam Elite Plus level on the card? Delta has 3 places to get your card that I can find - the website, app, and Google/Apple wallet - ONLY the app seems to show this logo (and does a poor job of it) - the wallet pass and website don't. It's interesting DL Gold, Platinum, and Diamond all seem to match to the same place (Elite) - I was sort of expecting Elite Plus. Oh well. I got the same 4 months granted, with the options to extend to 1 year w/ one flight or 2 years w/ 15k miles as everyone else.

First I signed up for a miles and smiles account then selected feedback from menu, new feedback, miles and smiles program, membership processes. Submitted a copy of my current Delta Platinum Elite card, copy of passport and copy of recent Delta Skymiles activity. I received acknowledgement of my submission with a TK number. Then waited. One week, two weeks. Nothing. I called (number on US TK Air website) to inquire. Then received an email asking for copy of Delta Skymiles card plus last two months activity of Delta Platinum Elite account. Waited a week. Nothing. Repeated this process two additional times. In total, I called about six times and pretty much gave up. Then I received an email welcoming me to Elite Status with the following conditions... • The first 4 months of your Elite membership is considered as the trial period.

I contacted SAS through their form. They sent me a request for documents (passport, TK Card, which I got from the app, and a statement going back about a year) and I got back an email stating that I needed to put the message ID number in the email transmitting the documents. I re-sent the documents this time adding the message ID and two days later, I got a message congratulating me on the status upgrade.

I initially applied for a status match from my British Airways Gold card but this was rejected. I then applied on the basis of my earlier pre-Covid travel with Turkish Airlines (where I have soon-to-expire Elite status) and I was successfully matched to Sindbad Gold within 5 days. In both cases I submitted a copy of my cards and flight history statement.
