Amex told me to appeal in writing, the rotters

(Perhaps this would be better off in the Tesco thread...)
One to look out for in the post: I've just received some vouchers for extra Clubcard points when shopping with your Amex at Tesco or online.
There are two for 250 extra points when you spend £40 or more on tesco.com/groceries between 10/10 - 16/10 and 24/10 - 30/10, and two for 150 extra points when you spend £25 or more instore between 17/10 - 23/10 and 31/10 - 6/11.
Which is particularly confusing. Good luck to you if you're going to try to get all 800

Has anyone else not had their BA Amex miles post to their Exec club account this month? Mine normally leave the Amex account on the 21st and post to the BA account on the 22nd. According to the Amex transactions page, the miles have been deducted (on Oct 21st) but nothing has been added to my Exec account.

Mine haven't posted either - expecting ~11k due to buying flights.
I assumed it was something to do with the upcoming switch to Avios.

Slight variation here. My non-BA spend miles left at the usual time (19th) and posted at the usual time (21st). But the BA spend miles are still sitting in my AMEX account.

I had three transactions this month in the transfer process. The BA spend, non-BA spend and the manual correction when the 1.5 points for BA spend was not working on the PP card. All three transferred OK.

It's not unusual, IME.
I've just cleared my latest [October] Amex for £2.5k, and the system tells me I'll get 60 BA Miles.
Next month, I'll assuredly get a skip of Miles.
It seems to be some sort of data-processing waypoint, although it makes no sense to me. I just keep track of what gets credited at ba.com, and it seems to work in the end.

Still waiting for mine too - about a week late at the moment.

2,708 miles left Amex on the 23rd October, nothing on BA yet.
Annoying as this batch takes me past 150,000 and allows me to start planning how to spend my hard earned miles/companion voucher on a First booking!
Have emailed them today, will update with anything I get back from them.

They are definitely not holding them up for Avois.
Mine left my AMEX account yesterday and all 8,000+ miles posted to BA overnight.
