Maximise your Avios, air miles and hotel points

Forums Frequent flyer programs The British Airways Club Erroneous Avios showing on my Avios Boost

  • 8 posts

    Just logged on to boost some Avios ahead of booking a flight later tonight to find over 500k of Avios transactions for the last 30 days that certainly weren’t mine!! I selected a few to see if I was able to boost them (no intention to complete the transaction) and I got the spinning wheel of death on the next page.

    Does anyone else have this problem? The main issue I currently have is that if this isn’t resolved tonight, I won’t have enough Avios to complete my return leg. I have enough if I call up and do it through an agent but that is far from certain at the minute!

    Something weird going on there isn’t there. Mine is similar.

    Glad it isn’t just me! Must be an issue across the board!

    Ha – I’ll see your hundreds of thousands of Avios and raise you my 1,999,080 Avios on CC spend! Wait, no, I logged out and then back in and now my CC spend is listed as 1,257,318 … totally bonkers and broken. BA IT at its finest 😀

    I came to check for confirmation that it was not just me. Thanks. Mine is equally screwed up.

    Somebody needs to check their SQL joins… over 2 million for me!

    I feel hard done to, only 400k.

    Think it pulls back a different amount each time you try ! I thought it was back to normal there as the amounts were much more like my actual Avios, although I know I haven’t been shopping in H&M! 🙂

    Error 403 – Sie verfügen nicht über die erforderlichen Berechtigungen zum Fortfahren

    Not entirely sure what it means, but it gave me a momentary impulse to goose step.

    @Aston100 That’s all Greek to me.

    The number of boostable (sic) Avios is dropping, it’s like something from Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy.

    Me too !
    It feels like I have hacked someone’s account!

    I am trying to buy a small amount but the hamster wheel is just turning !

    Bizarre! What next from BAEC IT ?

    The only time I did “booster” was 6 months ago. Genuinely have to do now only to find these erroneous transaction of 380k avios boost-able! From Sydney to Singapore to Haneda to New Orleans to Oslo to Aberdeen 😀

    Same here, it’s concerning because I can see flight booking references and itineraries under Flights heading.

    Unless my wife has spent £3.2m on Amex and booked 600k worth of flights all over the world 😂

    Problem is fixed for me now, it’s just showing my own transactions.

    Same here – looks like the intern may have been moved to another project 😀
