I'm no expert but I would say that if you clicked through from your account into the BA Estore then went onto to purchase, they will credit in your account. FYI - My Dell purchase took 2 months to post miles and that was after chasing them! (The Estore advises to wait 40 days for miles to post) - after that you can fill in a missing miles claim form which I had to do.
