Mmm. Don't want to bring anybody down (except myself) but mine have not

. Presumably this batch relates to another regular transfer date MR-Tesco rather than individual corrected credits in which case another clawing-back action is not necessarily off the cards. Are MR balances (unlike mine) also looking more normal?

Mine was a straight forward transfer from the 8th of March,I entered the game late so didn't get any "bonus points" MR account is as it should be.

Might I suggest (respectfully) that any conversations about bonus points or otherwise are conducted via pm's?

I will not be sleeping until the day in May when the Tesco Envelope falls through the post box with my 80,000 (£800) worth of Tesco points which are then converted into BA Miles all without any Fraud / Money / point Launderinging investigations and/or Tesco/BA not honouring the conversion.

Thanks for the heads up.

A very healthy 211,000 TCC points now showing, so all my T05s safely accounted for.

211,000 blimey. Sorted for MFU's and 241's then for some considerable time. Well done, for maximising the opportunity.

Smirnoff seems a friendly sort of bloke. I think he should share those miles around a bit. I'm prepared to help.

which equates to 506,400 BA miles on the low rate. Wow.

However I am pleased my 42,000 or so I bought have shown up. Which is roughly 1/5th of Smirnoff's!
