My AA number was supposedly removed by AADV Exp desk and they entered my baec number BEFORE my trip began. My boarding passes indicated my baEC number.

All miles still went to AADV!

As a result I had to make a extra MR.

I had asked AA to remove them flights from my account so I could credit the flights to baEC but they refused. Asked a second time again refused told this is NOT done...

So i gave up as my baEC year was ending in a weeks to me I did the MR!

I have hd this happend before with both AA and ba and NEVER had a issue in having it corrected, so caught me by suprise...
