  OT: I am trying to explore ways to use a family member’s MR points (~30k) for myself (I built up the spend). I know I have option of BA & Emirates through pooling, is there anything else, hotel or airlines? Thanks

    Hilton allows free transfers (which they call pooling) but best not to do it on a brand new account

    All 3 hotel partners let you transfer or pool points for free so no problem there. BA is quite rare in offering family accounts unfortunately.

        For the hotel partners, that person doesn’t need to come to the booking right? I can go myself right? Thanks

  OT – I’m seeing lots of posts on other articles suggesting ‘cross referral’, i.e. referring from BAPP to Gold, but I am having trouble doing this. I’ve already done BAPP and my wife is also now a BAPP holder having been referred by me – that was easy enough. I want to use my wife’s BAPP account to refer myself to Gold but am only getting an option to refer for BAPP. What am I doing wrong?

  Thanks

      Thanks but makes no difference.

      For clarity I am doing – Amex Homepage > Rewards > Refer friends. Get rewarded > login to wife’s account.

      From there I am only presented with an option to refer for a BAPP.

        That should be fine. When you send the referral link you should then be able to choose a different card.

        Bingo, thanks Sean. Just needed to scroll down the page a bit!
