I wanted to get the forum's thoughts on this: I am gold status and earned the majority of my SC previously through flights. As I've been in lockdown in Melbs since 2020, I've not taken any flights (though I've booked and had to cancel plenty).
During lockdown, I relied on my grocery shopping to top up my SC every so often.
Now that we're out of lockdown and I'm finally triple vaxxed, I feel safe to resume my frequent flying with Virgin, however my review date is 31 May 2022. I'm glad that Virgin extended the review dates over the pandemic but (for my budget and schedule) trying to earn 291 SC in just a couple of months feels unfair. I've already booked 2 flights for this month.
Usually, I would have had a full year to re-qualify for my status. Does anyone think I have a leg to stand on if I call Virgin to discuss an extension?
