Help! Does anybody know how to login BAEC with an American Express Premier Card?
Got a new British Airways American Express Premium Plus Card recently. The BA.com sent me an email which stated what my pin was, but without any information about my username or membership number. How can I login in? Thanks in advance!

I thought you needed to create a BAEC account yourself in order to open a BA PP card?
In general when signing up for these types of cards it's best to create your own loyalty account first and then put the membership number in the application. Letting the card issuer create you a new account can cause problems.
Used to hear about it a lot on the bmi forum, where MBNA wouldn't send you details of your diamond club number and you had to phone up. I've never heard of this situation on the BA forum but one solution would be to call Amex and ask what BAEC number your account is linked to.

My Dad recently applied for a BA Amex, and had the same - he didn’t already have a BAEC account and so received a welcome email from BAEC containing a PIN number but no BAEC membership number or login ID.
Acxording to Amex the BA membership number should appear on his statement, but he hasn’t had a statement generated yet.
