    For anyone interested, Turkish are offering a status match to Gold members of Star Alliance, OneWorld (Emerald) and Skyteam (Elite).

    This link will take you to their customer site,

    http://www4.thy.com/customercontact/?lang=en

    Just click in and follow the process. I think you may have to join the programme first (I was already in).

    You’ll need to upload a copy of your current Gold card and a copy of a couple of months statements. I just took a screen print of my online account.

    Just click “customer contact” below Turkish Airlines (as opposed to the link underneath AnadoluJet) and after the Captcha page you can submit all of your details for the match.

    From memory, it took them about 2 weeks to match my BAEC Gold card.

    It can be a frustrating website for a number of transactions but as C above said once you get it completed it only takes a couple of weeks.

    Click the link – select customer contact for Turkish – select new feedback – miles and smiles programme and complete form – fill in feedback detail (Iknow it’s not feedback but stay with it) – feedback type use comment – subject membership processing – not related to flight – then just request status match – as I say you may have to join but not sure – after that upload current card and statement screen print.

    As I say a bit a process but it works.

    Also, I said Skyteam Elite but it’s Elite Plus

    Also recommended to someone to try, thank you.
    They also have KLM Gold Elite +.

    The site is tricky and it will not accept an application unless you type in a member number at the end, raises as a fault.
    He had to make one up, despite stating new application as a member at the beginning.
    See what happens…

    My partner and I got the upgrade. It took only 1 week for him and almost 2 months for myself !

    If not already a Miles & Smiles member, you need to join first.

    The following link gives a very good explanation of the process.

    The process will be quicker if you send a scan of your Skyteam / Star alliance gold card AND a screenshot of your ST/*A online account.

    They are only doing Gold to Gold I think. Key is that TK gives status for 2 years, my match runs to mid 2014.

    Airberlin is also matching on an adhoc basis if anyone wants oneworld status, albeit only for a 4 month period.

    No response received to this offer, from the colleague who applied!

    Did anyone get Turkish airlines to match during 2013? I tried a couple of times but never got a response.
