Xfr BA household Avios to QR
Does anybody know if there is a simple way to transfer pooled Avios (BA household account) to QR? I've had a look on the QR website which shows that you can add a family member but requested copies of passport and marriage certificate.
As aside, is there any benefit of redeeming Avios through the QR website over BA? Thanks

I have moved avios from and to QR from my BAEC household account to a linked QR account in my name. It takes pro-rata from the household account (and a reverse transfers divides the amount pro-rata into the household account.
I booked a AUH to CMB ticket using cash and avios, I don't think I had the same option on BA. Also got a relatively low POUG offer for the long haul, so I was pretty satisfied all in all.

When I tried this recently, it gave me the ability transfer only up to my own personal Avios balance over to QR - rather than the whole HH balance (its possible the transfer itself deducted pro-rata from the HH member balances - but again, the transfer itself seemed to be capped at my Avios balance)
