I, too, have a different card number in the second email. Mystifying. I was rejected initially for nonsensical reasons but accepted after the issues cleared up. So that's two credit searches and I presume we are all paying for the weeks it takes the card to arrive. Ho hum...

HFP talked about future good news for existing Barclaycard holders who converted to the new Avios Plus premium paid card, but I never saw a follow-up. Does anyone know the position ?

No card yet despite being told on 28 Feb that the card was in the post. So unable to spend anything towards the three month sign up bonus.
As the first monthly billing period ended on 3 March, I'm now in week 2 of the second monthly billing period which is bizarre. I worry that the sign up offer will therefore end in just 7 weeks time at the end of the third monthly billing period. If so, an underhand way of Barclaycard limiting exposure to paying out the bonus.

Well I was approved on the first day the website went live (28th Feb). Received my PIN number by post on the 5th March but no card has arrived yet...
I'm sure they got swamped with applications, but once a card is approved, its printing and dispatch out should be automatic and pretty quick...

you go and select your current Barclaycard and then “change to a different card” option (in the app the path should be: quick links > cards> “select your card” > change to a different card.
