Is anybody still able to transfer Avios out of Iberia Plus to either Avios or BA? I just get the message that Avios can only be transferred INTO Iberia. Very frustrating as I didn't see this at first and accidentally transferred the amount I wanted to transfer out of Iberia into Iberia! I've transferred out of Iberia in the past but now can only go one way. Same for BA and Avios grrr.

You can try to pull it using the functionality in the BA account.
A quick disclaimer that the wording may not be exact as I use the IB website in Spanish.
From the IB account page you have to go to the Buy, gift, transfer avios page.
In small print below the three paid options there is a line that says "Don't forget you can combine your avios with other loyalty programs"
You really have to know where to look for it.

You can execute an Avios transfer from your IB to your BA account from the COMBINE MY AVIOS page in your BAEC account. It works both ways (i.e. BA to IB or IB to BA)

The pay option is usually for transferring to someone else. Transfer to yourself should be free, but may be dependent on the IB account being 30 or 90 days old, and active (which probably is or will be soon if you have 1000 Avios in it).
