My membership year ends on 30 September.
Having slid from Platinum to Gold a couple of years ago after an unpleasant incident caused me to shun Qantas for a while, I was on track to regain Platinum status this year.
However on or about 3 September, with 1235 status credits, and bookings for flights which would earn 280 more this month, I received a notice that I had succeeded in retaining Gold status.
Yesterday I returned from New Caledonia, earning Platinum status as I boarded the flight in Nouméa.
I have two boarding passes for the subsequent SYD-PER flight - one issued in Nouméa showing me as Gold, the other issued in Sydney showing Platinum. A midly interesting little momento!
Today I checked my PO Box to discover a letter from QF enclosing a new Gold QFF card which, of course, is already obsolete and useless.
Just wondered if everyone receives these about a month before the end of their membership year.
It seems very wasteful!
