Forums Payment cards Barclaycard Avios Hit spend target today

  • 11,250 posts

    I can’t think where else to put this, there was a general thread at the beginning, but I can’t find it now! Hit the £10k target today by paying half the final payment on our car plus a couple of other bits. Interested to see if/how long it takes to get the sign up bonus, plus extra 5k, plus voucher.

    I hit spend target over the weekend. I received an email today that said I had hit the target and will receive the 25k Avios shortly (no mention of the 5k sorry bonus) – states most likely the 2nd working day of next month. However, 5 minutes later I got a further email saying they have sent them across to my BA account – nothing showing yet but may show tomorrow, will update.

    Yes, I too received an email this evening indicating the 25k avios have been transferred (they haven’t).
    This on the back of 3 phone calls to Barclaycard this week where their ‘specialists’ advised no Avios are due to transfer for any spend (let alone the SUB) until June.

    I received the following email a couple of hours ago:

    Hi zio

    From 1 March 2022 to 31 March 2022, you collected* 30,328 Avios with Barclaycard.

    Since you started collecting Avios with us, you have collected a total of 7,620 Avios.

    So that’s nice and clear then.

    30,328 are showing in my BA app with the detail “collection”.

    When I’m home I will check my spend but it looks like the 25k have posted, but not the promised 5k extra.

    If you are talking about the 5k sorry they gave they said that would take 6 weeks to clear.

    Yes, I think it’s much too much to expect them all to hit neatly together!
