gift of gold from CO?!?!? yep
« on: October 28, 2011, 11:32:23 AM »
i randomly got gold status cards and package from CO telling me that i am gold. but its only till the end of the year. maybe they somehow found out im gold on delta.
problem is i am in school now and for sure will not be traveling on any significant trips till at least june or july next year.
does anyone have any ideas as to how i can get them to extend this for another year?
has this magical gold status gift ever happen to anyone else?

I wasn't saying they did not; I was just asking what airlines, if any, status match.
