Looking back in my account, I seem to have received 25k mid October which may be the unexpected Avios – I lost track of what I should have been getting from what at that point. 25k isn’t the promised 100k though.

I’m almost certain I had Avios rewards turned on from March, I can’t think why I would have gone for the Premier account otherwise.

I didn’t know I wasn’t eligible – I just received the email and thought “great news!” without looking into the specifics and have been looking forward to them ever since.

The email to which I think you are referring doesn’t exactly ‘promise’ you will get 100k; it’s pretty caveated and says they will get in touch at the end of the waiting period, plus links in the body of the email to the T&Cs, so unfortunately I’m not sure they are just going to hand over 100k if you’re not in fact eligible.
