I thought they just gave silver away for free

@A3, I don't have the card. I took their Spring challenge - 9 times stay in 3 months was giving you Platinum

You just get silver, not 25000 extra pqm. Took a few days to show in my account.

United Silver gets you nothing except boarding group 2 and free checked bags. If you are traveling through a hub, Group 2 is ridiculously large. You will be at least #25 on the upgrade list. You cannot pick a seat in Economy Plus for free until you check in 24 hours before your flight-if there are none available, you are stuck in the back.

Lag

Took me a few weeks (just did it recently)

Same. I called and they said give it a week. Btw, will the card upgrade status? if you start at gold before the card, it moves you to platinum (and so on)? Would it still be 50 nights to gold / 75 nights to platinum?

No card gives platinum. Only card that gives highest status is Hilton aspire

When I linked, I got silver in a couple days. I am usually <10th person in line for group 2 and get upgraded decently often for being in the lowest tier.

@Blue and Co - wasn’t what myself or OP asked. all 🐠 know basic status benefits.

Btw, wtf is Blue & Co?

For expert witnesses/lawyers

I’m a former forensic scientist that left the field several years ago. I recently received a subpoena from a case I worked and suggested to DA to have evidence re-worked by the lab or stipulation. If I am required to testify (as an expert witness), I would need to book a flight, hotel, etc. My question is this: can I ask for my requested hourly rate, travel, and hotel to be covered when speaking with DA or is that “not how this works” as the investigator put it?

Hey! I’m new here and would like some input. I’ve been working in a new position for almost 5 months. In that time I’ve witnessed some unethical and lots of unprofessional behavior. I’ve been yelled at and berated by my coworker 3 separate times because of minor errors. I’m ready to quit. There are so many major issues in this company that I don’t know if I want to subject my mental health to this degree of toxicity. I just don’t know how to move forward from here.

It's sad to see people with 2-3 years of experience getting paid more than you when u have double the experience. 😄 Best part is they are still complaining of getting less. Well I guess you should never settle. New gen is giving a hard time to the experienced folks. I think this is the high time to upgrade your skills. Come out of your comfort zone and start looking for new opportunities. I think this is the best time to switch if u haven't already in quite some time.
