Received an email to match my ALL platinum to SIXT platinum. Given Hertz are actively screwing members by expiring points without notice now after 12 months, the timing couldn't be better.

Link from email is here Update your browser Scroll down to the status match section. Looks like you can match from a lower ALL status too.

I did it online and it was painless. No idea if status with SIXT is worth anything though.

Nice, thanks for this. I've used SIXT a couple of times in the past few months out of Albury and Hobart airports - the cars and service have been great. Very competitive pricing with the discounts (actually 'corporate rates') for NRMA/RACQ members.

Did they provide any upgrade options ? I have status matched with my hertz status and will be trying them out next week at Cairns. Website says Platinum gets free upgrade , keen to understand how it works and if we have to ask explicitly. Thanks

I didn't have any SIXT status at the time I booked - was just using the NRMA corporate rate - so no upgrades. I also booked non-base categories anyway (an 8 seater van for one, and an EV for the other) so even with status I reckon an upgrade would be pretty unlikely.
 
Yep, ALL Silver & Gold is being matched to SixT Gold. I did the match last week. Can’t remember where I saw the promo - maybe elsewhere here or possibly received the email also? There was a bonus points offer also IIRC.
 
I am ALL gold so signed up through the link to match to Gold. Got an email saying welcome to sixt Gold, but I didn’t even need to submit any substantiation of being ALL Gold ! Maybe I should have gone through the platinum match link haha

Nah, when I clicked the Platinum link, it wanted me to upload evidence of ALL Platinum status, so I backtracked and then selected the Silver/Gold link. (No proof required for that level then, like you.)

And the Gold rates on offer are far better than the RACQ discounted rates for a current quote I'm looking at. Oops scratch that thought... it was showing USD.

Yeah, looks like gold status doesn’t offer anything anyway. Pricing was exactly the same for a booking I was looking at, both logged in as gold and not logged in as a member
 
Last week when picking the car at CNS airport , I was told that I was being upgraded in lieu of my platinum card with Sixt but was not entirely sure of the car class that I had booked and the actual car that was provided.
