Further data point on this: I ended up upgrading my basic card to platinum and the 75k points posted immediately on hitting the £10,000 spend. My gold which it wouldn’t allow me to upgrade is still open alongside (same situation as @QFFlyer)

Congrats on the ARCC to Platinum upgrade (using a link that says nothing at all about upgrading ARCC to Platinum 😀 )

It seems fortune favours the brave 🙂

Are you going to keep your gold card or downgrade it to an ARCC?
