    Hi all
    I would like to clarify the promotions and exclusions for the above business cards.
    I currently only hold the the British Airways premium plus card, having cancelled my previous personal gold card 18 months ago.

    Am I right in thinking, I could apply for the BA accelerating business card gain the promotion, and then the following month apply for the platinum business card and gain that promotion?

    From what I can tell neither the personal nor business BA cards affect the platinum bonus promotion?
    This way a 17k spend in subsequent months could net 110k points?

    Any advice would be appreciated.

    Yes that’s correct. You couldn’t do Biz Plat then Accelerating though.

    As per Rob

    Make sure you haven’t held a Preferred Rewards Gold, The Platinum Card, Green, American Express Rewards, American Express Business Gold or American Express Business Platinum card in the previous 13 months and meet the qualifying criteria for having a small business
