Do the Starfleet 'Engineers' no longer get a new ship, past the rank of Lt. Cmndr?
I have a Starfleet Engineer, who has reached Level 21, who was "supposedly promoted", but has not been, "ordered to report to Adm. Quinn, at Spacedock", to receive the "scheduled ship upgrade". Now just WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON WITH THE PROGRAM?

His character glitched out and missed the promo. Could not get his ship at level 20.
He continued to play the game and this character leveled up to level 30...at which point the program straightened out.
At level 30, it triggered BOTH promotions.
Here he does the Captain promotion...that is the level 30. Picks his ship...the Vor'Cha he is talking about. That completed the Promotion: Captain quest. Immediately upon that quest ending.... the Promotion: Commander (Level 20 promotion) kicked in.
Here he does the Commander promotion....that is the level 20 (that glitched out before). He can, now, select the Tier 2 ship he missed before...the K't'inga. And he is happy.
Here is what I get from this: I could keep playing without the new ship and get my character up to Level 30 and see if both promotions trigger for me. OR, if I really NEED a new ship at level 20, I can just delete the glitched character and start over...because getting to this promotion doesn't really take that long.
My advice is: go to Level 30 and see if the program gives you both promotions then. Lack of new ship at Level 20 is not that big a hardship on playing the game.
NOTE: if you have a special Recruit character DO NOT DELETE....you can not make those special Recruit characters over right now.

In other words, there will be lots of times where you will have to "reset" or "re-do" something.

I have also had good luck with either beaming up to the ship and then back, or just changing instances and then going back to Adm Quinn.
Last, but not least, more than once, just going over and talking to the ship requisition Officer caused the promotion mission to trigger.
Okay, the really last thing, as already mentioned, the ship you get at level 20 isn't really that much better than the one you already have, playing on through to level 30 won't be exactly easy unless you are a veteran player but it's not really that difficult either.
Thanks for all of the 'tips' & 'advice'. I will try it "one more time!" And 'possibly', several more times after that. I guess that's what being a Starfleet officer's all about.
But as a 62 year old NON-WHITE man, who knows he's not part of the "CHOSEN 'GAMER' DEMOGRAPHIC", I am NOT into "blind compliance". Especially, when I SPEND MONEY to use the 'program'.
Just "setting things straight".
P.S. You are not near as old as my Armada Leader and his knowledge of this game would put the kids to shame.

There is no demographic here except fans of Star Trek.
If you still can't get it to work let us know and we'll try and help. I don't have any ideas outside of what's already been suggested, but we can keep trying.
If I am in combat when I get the bump to next Rank, the popup window for the Promotion Mission is immediately banished, so I have to find and Accept it after.

PS - I fully support a T6 Nova, fixing the Nova skins. I am also rooting for a T6 Science Cruiser, that can use Nova/Rhode Island skins.
T6 Nova/Rhode Island, T6 Oberth & T6 Constellation are needed. Also needed a T6 Science Cruiser, that can wear any Science or Cruiser skin.
As Sea said, there is no demographic, save for Star Trek fans. Good luck on getting your promotion.
