    175k? I thought 150k was the max you could get with the promo?

    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…

    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

    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,

    Yes 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)

    I 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!

    Me too:
    25,000 last summer as “Avios Card Welcome Bonus”
    25,000 end-Mar as “Avios Prem Joining Bonus”
    100,000 mid-Apr

    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

    Applied 11/11, no 100k yet. Do I remember reading it’s best to speak to Twitter support?
