Last edit by: Prospero
BUGS
1. Promotion to Gold Guest List (Markie)
2. More Gold Upgrades for 2 than there should be (Markie)
3. Flight details have same date for posting as for flight (Markie)
4. American Airline reward flights do not show and cannot be booked online(not sure if they can be booked by phone)
5. Combining avios points with IB is not possible. (alexphj)
6. TP collection year end on landing page shows card expiry date (i.e. end of following month). Correct under 'My Account' sub-menu. (NWIFlyer)
7. No household account although underlying data appears to still be there (many)
8. language set to english (german not available) (Nephoi)
9. AA Business R class domestic flight shows as Economy(R), but properly credits Avios+TP (El_Duderito)
10. Booking reference doesn’t display for partner flights eve though the tag is there (MaxFlyer)
11. Adding/editing contact phone number (for pax and/or additional contact) to 'Australia (+61)' once saved becomes 'Christmas Island (+61)'. (paulieuk)
12. Unable to logon using username - have to use BAEC number instead. (bakera)

'FEATURES'
1. Bronze/Silver/Gold members have some text formatted in Bronze/Silver/Gold text as applicable. Consensus seems to be that it's pretty, but hard to see…

ENHANCEMENTS
1. Additional detail of flights on Front Page (Markie)
2. Scroll back of transactions goes to October 2018 (Markie)
3. Household account redemptions appear differently, with pro-rate Avios transferred from other members into the head of HHA/redeeming member's account, then the total deducted. (sunshinebob) https://www.flyertalk.com/forum/33741742-post407.html

So my wife appears to have been busted down to silver from gold, Neither her nor Master Bisonravi have been able to log in, I did manage to nominate him for an upgrade, the process seems different, you need to nominate to nominate now.

Not massively impressed, the day before travel.

Gold line still can't access the Avios to allow ticketing of my two held-since-Saturday reservations... said just now that they're waiting for an update but "should be in the next hour"... uh huh, sure!

I just get a generic error page now. "Sorry there seems to be a technical problem" blah blah blah

I know I'm guilty of 'not reading the room' here, but all is fine with me.

Same here for the GGL line - got two bookings on hold which expire 8pm today and first travel date is Saturday.

App
I can log in but only to the booking I have and not to my general account.

Website
A bit hit and miss but I have been able to log in. Pretty disappointed though - TPs (nil as 8-Nov y/e) and Avios are exactly as they were before and I've had no free upgrade to GGL.

Ordered by IAG Loyalty (formerly Avios Group Ltd.), with IAG GBS (the formerly BA Information Management part) possibly being involved as a stakeholder, but most likely almost completely outsourced to the lowest bidder in another, uh, continent.

Whatever problem they're currently facing, the person who would know the answer was probably - or is in the process of being - laid off: BA IT Outsourcing

Interestingly, when I choose book a flight with Avios from my account area (on desktop), I can only select Economy or Business on a long haul route now, no choice of First of PE. Is anyone else getting this?

All a bit slow on the website - but got in and had a mooch no problem. Didn't really have to do anything though.

took ages but managed to log in to find none of the 1100TP i've flown since nov 8 have posted....lets hope it resolves once the dust settles or this will go very badly for them if they are unable to post miles/tp's for all those who flew during this debacle!

Is it reasonable to update my FT profile to GGLFL now?

No. You have to delete your current profile. In 4½ days' time, you can then put in GGLfL.
