How long for US/AA tp's and Avios to credit
Just wondered how long TP's and Avios take normally to credit into a BAEC account when flying with US/AA? Flew Dub-Phl-Sfo in J/F last Wed (7th Oct) and the tps and avios still havent arrived (13th Oct). I tweeted BA and they told me it can take 28 days..I flew the same route in April and it took 2/3 days for my account to update. My collection yr ends 8th of Nov. This trip will generate around 1160 tps..

Dub-Phl-Sfo-Lax-Koa-Phx-Phl-Dub

But if it takes past Nov 8th to credit..can I still make gold?

Yes, provided you have sufficient TPs. It doesn't matter when they post -- it matters when the flights were flown.

Regarding AA/US flights posting, see:

No harm in submitting an online claim. You'll need the ticket number as well as flight numbers and dates.

I usually find that they would post within 2 - 3 days. If your flight's on a weekend then it may take an extra day.

2-3 days is normal, so really almost as quick as with BA. The online form makes you wait a week before you can file a claim for missing points. In all cases for me it's been easy to get things resolved, and as others have noted, credit will retroactively apply for the dates flown.

About 2-3 days for me too.

Mine were posted the day after I took the flights with US Airways.
Though, they did credit the Post28/4 points.
Contacted them from Twitter and got it all fixed for Pre28/4.

They're pretty quick. I took a BA and an AA flight on the same day recently, and the AA flight tracked in BAEC before the BA one...

1-3 days and most of the time I've submitted a claim after 7 days it has rejected because the credit is already being processed and about to show.

AA TP/Avios credit
I flew with AA on Saturday, arrived at LHR on Sunday and the TPs/Avios credited on Monday.

Sent off two claims on BA's site for the two flights..dub-phl and phl-sfo. Still no show in my account. Baec numbers in both our bookings..so only thing i can think of is that US and AA systems are busy because on the 17th of Oct..US will cease to exist..and it will become one airline..I dunno.

6 weeks, 5 phone calls and 3 emails in my most recent case...

But normally much quicker, thankfully.

Ok so last night i checked my BA app and Ive been credited avios and tps for the 3rd flight (sfo-lax) which i took on Tue afternoon..but still havent credited for the first two flights. Its one booking..and all my details are correct. I sent off the claim with ba..but it seems really odd.
