Help: Flights credited to AA - how to resolve?

I just flew to India from USA (via London) on AA codeshare flights. The flights have not credited to BA and when I went to check my AA account it seems my flights credited there instead.

When I go to manage my bookings it correctly shows my BA membership number. Is there any way to resolve this to credit to BA?

You need to call AA and ask them to remove the miles. After that is done, you can ask BA for the credit.
However I've heard that recently, if you have AA status, AA will not accept to remove the miles, claiming that you have made use of your status (for lounge access or such things).
Good luck.

I got an incredibly helpful AA rep when I called who backed the credits out from AA and even put the request in to credit to BA for me.
They are now gone from my AA account. I'm hoping they turn up in the BA one soon. If they don't I'll submit a retro-credit request.

i had the same experience in Nov 2017, but different route. AA cs remove the credit right the way, and request BA credit on my behalf, credit showed up on BA account in around a week.

I was EXP at that time, and used SWU from Y to J on that particular ticket.

Just to finalise this thread the points showed up in my BA account about 5 days after I called.
