This could be useful for anyone opening the SPG Amex card and wanting to transfer to BAEC.
After spending the £1,000 to trigger the bonus, it is worth collected the extra 4,000 points to trigger the 5,000 transfer bonus at 20,000 points.
If you don't want to spend the £4,000 you could buy the points instead.

In case it's of use to others in prep for Avios and missed it earlier in the year. Calender year limit is 20k plus you currently get an extra 25% on transfer to BA. Remember each member of your BA family can have an SPG account although you cannot buy within 30 days of joining - so still time for them!
SPG points are 20% off!
