Status challenges are only good for the year in which you earned them, if you earned before June 30th of that year. To keep for following year: you have to have done a status challenge in second half of year or qualify with normal requirements.

that’s brutal - would have matched to Delta at EOY had i known. thanks

United refuses to match my existing delta status so you’re no missing out on much
