14-11-2022 Premier Avios Reward account opened
17-11-2022 Barclaycard Avios Plus opened
18-11-2022 Email confirming eligibility for 100k bonus recieved – as long as meeting criteria through the 17th March
30-03-2023 25k Premier Account bonus (posted on mu Executive Club account on the 5th April)
14-04-2023 Text confirming 100k Avios to be received by end of April
20-04-2023 100k Avios posted on my Executive Club accountGood luck everyone! This forum have been great help.
I got the 100K too! WOW! 175K in the bank! Amazing
100k for both players here too! Happy days
😀 Received 100k today (21st April). I opened the premier account 17th November.

175k? I thought 150k was the max you could get with the promo?
Mine arrived in the last 24 hours too, despite not getting the original 100,000 email.
Player 2’s email received 15/11 confirming eligibility but no text message and the 100k Avios have not been added to the BAEC account yet…
Just received my 100k bonus after a text message last week saying that I’d receive it by the end of April
Nothing yet
When did you apply?
Also received my 100,000 miles yesterday. Had the card already and opened the Barclays Bank account on the 15th November.
Must say I have been very impressed with the card will be keeping it (get 1.5 miles per £1, can use the card everywhere and no longer need to ask “do you accept Amex”, are receiving 1,500 miles for just a net £7 a months and so far no real issues with using the app). Saying that I still have Amex Gold which I use just when they have good balance spend offers
Mine arrived also! I may keep the card, or I may switch to virgin. Undecided yet…
I have received 125k overall so far – the 25k switching bonus a few months ago and the 100k headline bonus yesterday.
However the HfP article that ran originally says 2x 25k and the 100k:
“Yes, you receive 100,000 Avios as an extrabonus. You also get the standard bonuses of 25,000 Avios for taking out the Avios Plus credit card and 25,000 Avios for joining Premier Banking with Barclays Avios Rewards (T&C apply).”
Has anyone received both 25k amounts?
Thanks,
TheEscapistYes I have – however I got the first 25,000 when I took out the credit card over a year ago. I then go (a mystery) 25,000 a couple of weeks ago which is apparently for opening the Premier bank account.

17/11. Got the card a few weeks later (as I already had the free one and had to wait until next statement)

TheEscapistI asked Barclays about this and they seemed to think there was only one lot of 25k. This doesnt however mean that is correct as I was told quite a few different things along my Barclays journey!

didn’t you both get the premium card, spend 3k and got the 25k avios?

Err no it’s costing you £20+£12-£5=£27 per month
OH received 150k avios in total as part of this offer. Card and account churned pretty much the following day. Off to HSBC premier now while waiting for the clock to rest for AMEX cards
