Looks like I got shafted on the Shell bonus because of this:
From my Avios.com statement...
29/11/2011 shell drivers club welcome bonus avios 50
Also, when BAEC announced their 2,000 bonus for shell months ago I changed my preference on the shell site to BAEC but they still posted to Avios.com last week
07/03/2012 SHELL DRIVERS CLUB POINTS DEC 2011 001408884181 40
Note they only transferred 40 points even though I had earned a lot more than that before the end of feb

This makes no sense to me at all!
I also don't understand why people are getting their 2,000 bonuses already, when the first quarter in the list is Jan/Feb/Mar unless the Oct/Nov/Dec referred to below was actually Oct/Nov/Dec 2011, very misleading to put it last on the list and not mention which year they are talking about if that is the case!
Shell awards are as follows: Fill up in Jan/Feb/Mar, Avios on account in June. Fill up in Apr/May/Jun, Avios on account in September. Fill up in Jul/Aug/Sep, Avios on account in December. Fill up in Oct/Nov/Dec, Avios on account in March. Bonus Avios will be awarded within 28 days of the end of each quarter.
I'll never fly Shell again!
