  So does it mean that, as from tomorrow, we are able to transfer the opposite way without losing the bonus or do we have to wait for the 500 to actually arrive?

  • Andrew says:

    14 Feb14 February 08:06

    I would probably be waiting for the bonus to hit.

  • Peter K says:

    Have a look at the t&c’s. They are very clear.

  • Rob says:

    14 Feb14 February 10:34

    Now that’s a good question ….

  • AJA says:

    14 Feb14 February 12:22

    The T&Cs suggest a transfer from BA to Nectar should be possible from tomorrow but I would wait until the bonus Avios post.

  Aren’t the quarantine rules applying to uk to jersey quite prohibitive for a holiday during 2021?

  • John says:

    14 Feb14 February 07:55

    They are obviously expecting the rules to be lifted by 28 May

    • Andrew says:

      14 Feb14 February 08:06

      Expecting maybe, highly unlikely however.

      • TGLoyalty says:

        Very pessimistic. I don’t see why it’s highly unlikely by May.

          My reading of it is that we are all going to be guinea pigs in a massive experinent … lockdown or at least severe restrictions remain until about 2-3 weeks after the 9 priority groups get their second jab and then we are all let loose over the summer to see what happens. Date in question will be dependent on progress with second vaccines.

  Last day for the eBay 6x nectar bonus too.

  • BJ says:

    14 Feb14 February 09:49

    Thanks. Missing ‘Dates for your diary’ here.

    • Rob says:

      14 Feb14 February 10:29

      It is still running for our own internal use but seemed a waste of an article to publish because it is quite short. I pick off the relevant ones for mentions like this.

      • BJ says:

        14 Feb14 February 12:44

        Figured as much but it means we are right at the eleventh hour. Would a good compromise that might work better just be a simple list as part of a bits article, that is a fraction of the detail that used to be in the original ‘Dates’.

          Or just be an adult and rely on yourself?

  Rob I’m pretty sure Loganair binned their Edinburgh to Jersey flights the other day when Easy reinstated their service for the summer.

  Staycation means staying at home. Not staying somewhere else in your own country. And certainly not staying in a British crown dependency 500 miles away.

  • Yorkieflyer says:

    14 Feb14 February 13:04

    No it doesn’t. Staycation is going on holiday in UK, arguable whether Jersey included I suppose.

    • Save East Coast Rewards says:

      It’s a word that seemingly changed meaning last year. It originally meant those who stayed at home and explored their local area (places you could go for a day either driving or by public transport).

      I know people who holiday within the UK regularly that hate the implication that these are not proper holidays and just some novelty that is done during lockdown.

      But by any definition Jersey is not in the UK. It has its own rules regarding covid. Calling it a staycation will just make people think the same rules apply to going there as going to Cornwall.

  I have just linked my nectar card with ba. I cannot do the transfer as it says I have no redemption permission. I am now guessing that this card was originally taken out by my dad ( who never used it) who has passed away. What can I do ? I have £250 worth of points that I have collected!

  • Rob says:

    14 Feb14 February 10:32

    Odd. You can link any Nectar card to any BA account, no need to match email addresses or names.

  • Chrism20 says:

    14 Feb14 February 10:36

    Sounds like it was part of a twin pack of cards which was a regular thing back in the day with Nectar. When registering you set one up as the master where you could earn and redeem whilst the other could be set to collect only. Normally this can be sorted by contacting them.

    • James says:

      14 Feb14 February 19:05

      Incorrect, our double pack can each earn and redeem, separate sign ons and bonuses etc, but pooled total balance.

  For anyone having the same issue as me: When trying to link my Nectar to my Avios I was getting a variety of “Bad Gateway” type browser errors. This was using the latest version of Google Chrome. I (for the first time ever) used the MS Edge browser and that worked fine.

• Coogan says:

  Anyone actually getting the 2 Nectar points per £1 spent instead of 1 point? I’ve had 4-5 shops since and still single rate.

  • Peter K says:

    14 Feb14 February 09:17

    Credited at the end of the period. It’s in the t&c’s.

  • Paul pogba says:

    I’m not sure if you have to opt in in the app, I saw it listed in the partner offers part of the app. I’ve not been to Sainsbury’s since I saved the offer to check if it’s made a difference.

    • James says:

      Read the T&Cs, READ THEM AND UNDERSTAND THEM!
      (get it) 😀
