FWIW, just got this email re the companion ticket and the higher earn rate, but not the bonus 100,000 miles. I do have a Chase BA Visa card, but not a Signature card. Would welcome Dilly's input re my previous question about getting a Signature card can quality someone with a non-Signature card for the 100,000 mile offer.
Same great card. New great rewards.
As a British Airways Visa Cardmember, you earn travel rewards every time you use your card to make everyday purchases and pay bills. Now, you can enjoy these recently upgraded benefits, which will allow you to redeem travel rewards even faster:
Redeem for 1, Travel for 2.
Every year you spend $30,000 on your card you will receive a redemption voucher for a companion, valid for two years. Redeem your BA Miles on a British Airways flight and take anyone with you, on the same flight in the same class of service.1
A 25% higher earn rate.
Earn 2.5 BA Miles for every $1 spent on British Airways flights, land products and vacation packages. Earn 1.25 BA Miles for every $1 spent on everyday purchases.2
Of course, your original card benefits still apply. You will still enjoy unlimited complimentary companion tickets with every purchase of a full-fare ticket in World Traveller Plus™, Club World™and First Class3 and a $50 discount when you book round-trip transatlantic flights online.4
