BA bonus Avios technical issue

As the title says, BA has had a technical issue with the awarding of the bonus Avios. Mrs rapidex and I went LGW-MLA-LGW, and only recieved the bonus for the return flight. On contacting BA they resolved the issue and admitted there was a technical problem.

I have no idea of the extent of this problem, but if you are missing any of your bonus Avios from the current promotion, contact BA and they will sort it.^

My LGW-AMS-LGW flights at the end of November posted OK.

Did you make any changes to the outbound as that could have been the cause?

How long should one wait for the bonus Avios to post? Nothing 9 days after the flight for my last trip.

None of the flights I UuA’d or POUG’d (5 flights) had the bonus Avios come through - so def need to get onto BA about that.

I've had some post, some haven't. The ones I have POUG'ed haven't posted. Thanks for the reminder!

They normally post within a day of the qualifying flight posting in my experience

Just noticed today that they had stopped posting for my last flight. I think it was capped at 10 flights so I had 8 up until the end of November but nothing for December.

I didn't get bonus for a flight I AUP'd, filed missing Avios claim it said everything has been posted. Guess have to give them a call too.
But tricky one is the booking I had on hold for 72h and technically paid for after the promotion started, no bonus posted though, wouldn't hurt to ask
