Interesting. All fine with set up, but Barclays welcome pack only states “25000 bonus Avios when you spend £3000 in the first three months” despite the fact that I used the sponsored link on HFP which promised 50,000 Avios if applying before July 18.

Have now spent best part of an hour with Barclaycard to try to confirm the higher bonus, but no-one seems to know about it or to be able to confirm it exists. They finally suggested I should call BA, and gave me the general BA booking number to call! Obviously hopeless. All seems a bit of a shambles, and I am no wiser as to the application of the double bonus to my account.

If you click the bell icon in the app, do you not have a message about the increased bonus?
