    So do IHG do soft landings or not?

    Yes they do.
    I dropped from diamond to platinum last year.
    I’m expecting to drop from Platinum to something else tonight, but not the basic club level

    Actually I’m going to have a little relegation party here all by myself. Now’s probably a good time to open those Pringles from that Cambridge HIX

    Yep, HIX is the way forward for me now for a free breakfast.😋

    I am still Diamond. No change despite not qualifying. I am pretty sure I received an email that said end of January. We’re not there yet.

    Same here.. got bumped down to Platinum. Ah well, it was nice to have those free breakfasts at HI when needed but the lounge pass is far more valuable for me and I lost that at the end of last month anyway.

    My main program is Marriott so this year I’ll also use the (so far) excellent VIP status at Radisson and check out Accor as they are currently effectively paying people on ALL Signature to receive 1000 status points a month (you currently pay less than 90 EUR for 100 EUR of fixed-price reward points).

    The email and the message in the app both say that the review will be completed by the end of Jan, not that your current status will last until then (as is clearly not the case).

    @Aston100. That really made me laugh! Just wondering whether my door (which isn’t in view) will be opened before NorthernLass!

    Hope he’s got a (death) warrant or he’s not coming in!

    It doesn’t say that.

    Questions regarding our 2024 annual review
    Will a member’s status change to a lower tier if they haven’t achieved the new nights threshold? For example, will a member be downgraded to Silver Elite if they do not meet the new Gold Elite criteria?
    Yes, members will need to meet 2024 Qualified Nights or Points threshold for the relevant tier based on activity between 1 January 2024 and 31 December 2024 to maintain their current status or achieve a higher tier level.
    Otherwise, their status will be downgraded and reflected in their IHG One Rewards account by the end of January 2025.

    My status has now reverted to Diamond, but I notice 2 things on my account now:

    1. It says I’m Diamond until 31 Dec 2024 and an account review is ongoing.

    2. I can see the same ‘Platinum status upgrade’ line item in my account activity that Northernlass can see.

    Can’t be much longer. At least I’m not club anymore!

    Exactly – the review will be completed and changes made by the end of the month, not at the end of the month.

    I’m still 💎 today, OH has dropped to Platinum (Grim Reaper working in the dark, maybe 🤷‍♀️😂).

    He is Ambassador till August so not sure if it’s that or soft landing!
