Oh, I don’t know why I assumed that I would be eligible if I agreed to pay the £20 for Premier. That sucks..

We thought this too, but Barclays is telling us it isn’t working yet (even though it is on the website), so who knows.

Rhys – I think Rob said yesterday that he would ask Barclays re the eligibility checker that asks if you have a Barclays account, and if you tick no, takes you to a question ‘do you pay £75k into a Barclays account’. If you answer correctly it then says you are ineligible. Also, I and quite a few others have raised the point that the HfP link takes you to the 100k (for those with BC Avios Plus) but then sends you off to the app (no option to go on desktop/laptop unless you have no ID!) that offers all Barclays accounts, not just Premier so highly unlikely it would track. Would like to apply but don’t want aggro re tracking.
