In fact, if you have non-promo Avios in your IB account, I would definitely transfer them out. I don't trust IB to get this right.
same here, I spent 85k of the bonus but am going to transfer my whole, healthy IB balance to baec before the deadline. I know that if the I.T. goes t*ts up IB aint the best at fixing things.
