Are you stating that from experience, or from a reading of the T&Cs?

I have no personal experience doing such a transfer. I thought I learned about it on FT Do correct me if I'm mistaken.

Well, we have reports of BA transfers failing if the names don't match. We do not yet have reports of success or failure of AA transfers where the names don't match.

The terms and conditions on the RBC Avion website say names must match also for Avion-to-AAdv transfers. I don't have time to look for it at the moment, but remember posting this information a month or two ago.

I started some Avion -> AA transfers on Friday and Saturday - they posted today, with the correct activity date (of Friday and Saturday).

EDIT: And the 30% bonus posted at the same time, I guess they fixed the delay.

Yes, but the Q was is this actually enforced? We were looking for confirmed successes or failures.

FWIW, it took 2 business days for Esso -> Avion and another 2 business days for Avion -> AA. My bonus miles posted at the same time.
