I’d assume that this new application would not gain any bonus Avios, but have no idea if there’s a wait time before it’s possible to reapply or if there’s still six months for free . Does anyone have any thoughts or answers on this? Thanks.
You are not supposed to earn Avios when using this card to pay off another credit card. (i.e. a digital electronic payment method)
So either it's BA world-leading IT working in your favour - lol - or the Avios will be clawed back eventually... And with the direct link to your Executive Club account, there's a non-zero risk of your BAEC account being shut down if you try to "churn" this prepaid Mastercard and use it exclusively for credit card payments...
