Posting from the SQ lounge in MNL. It was a bit harder getting in here - my 06 number was registered on my boarding pass but they asked for my Gold card. After a while I produced the status match letter and a Web printout, which convinced them to let me in, according to their team leader.
Thanks for the dinner O6 but need to be wary it might not all be smooth sailing without a card.
Thanks for the report exceladdict. Good to hear. Hoping the temporary card is enough for me too at a few SK lounges in a couple of weeks.
Was a straight up black-and-white print out from the website enough? Or did you print the welcome email too?
I had a wad of paper with a screenshot of the Web page with the card on it, the card print page (which shows the numbers incorrectly), and my status match confirmation email. All in colour.
They didn't bite originally when I said I just hadn't been sent my card yet.
Either I was lucky or you are unlucky. I applied about 3 days before my QF SG was due to expire at the end of October and got matched with confirmtion coming last week. Perhaps they have tightened up on applications since then.
QF Gold to Amigo Gold
lasts to March 2017 so am happy with that - gets in me into a few star alliance lounges next year in Europe when I am in Y for intra-Europe flights.
Anyone had any lucj printing the card and getting the name and number on the card - mind has the name and number below the card so it looks like its been typed in afterwards and looks very dodgy.
I have made my bookings and their is no where in Brussels airlines manage my bookings to add a frequent flyer number so would like to get a decent hard copy
I thought that was a bit dodgy too! Ended up taking a screenshot and then printing it separately. It's not great. Honestly it'll be a miracle if SK let me into their lounges in a couple of weeks.
Please report back how you go!!

I printed off the temporary card and used it when I recently flew with Thai. It got me all the privileges, from priority check-in, to lounge use without question. You're right though, it is a bit tricky to print off the card with all the info intact. I took a photo of the screen and then sized and printed the card off on photo paper.

When you approached staff how did you preface it?
"I know this looks dodgy, but..."
