BarclayCard Aviator Bonus Taking Forever to Arrive
It’s been 10 dats since I made my first purchase and paid off it and the annual fee, and although my account shows that I fulfilled the condition for the bonus, the miles haven’t appeared in my American account yet.
What gives? How long has it taken others to receive this bonus?

I have a new card as well. My single purchase was $6, plus the $95 annual fee, and when I received my electronic statement I had a 500 point bonus (not sure what for) and the 6 for the charge, so 506 total. I paid the card yesterday so am waiting for my 60,000 point bonus. I believe the T&C says 4-6 weeks after the annual fee was paid. Will update.

Update. My introductory page shows I've been awarded the miles, but I haven't. I do have the cert. Funny, the T&C says 8-10 weeks for the cert and 4-6 for the miles. "Please allow 4-6 weeks for the AAdvantage® bonus miles to be deposited into your AAdvantage® Account and allow 8-10 weeks for delivery of the Companion Certificate after the qualifying purchase has posted to your Card Account and the annual fee has been paid."

Update two. I received the 60,000 point bonus exactly one month (in this case, 29 days) after my original purchase was credited. Yay!
