Worth noting that HfP have been advised (as commented on threads here by Rob) that there is also a ‘hidden’ (not in the T&C’s) eligibility criterion that you must also perform a full CASS switch if your account is new to Barclays.

I strongly suspect this is incorrect or Barclays could have a fight on their hands. I’ve followed the T&C’s to the letter, and as an existing Barclays current account holder – had no intention of initiating a full CASS switch.

I received 2,500 Avios bonus as an ‘existing’ customer upgrading to Premier, and a swift email confirming eligibility for the 100k if I hold Premier and Avios+ for 4 months.

If they later renege on the T&C’s and state a switch was required, hell hath no fury.
