As usual, I am too late to the gate, but that's ok this time. Part of the problem, apart from actually travelling and being in the air, is that I changed my password and didn't note it down to take with me on my travels. I didn't want to go through the hassle of creating yet another password, and by the time I got around to checking this evening, the 2,000 Avios packages had gone. Shame that Iberia Plus is such a mess with passwords and the like (seem to have to create a new one every time I try to sign in).

Oh that's interesting. I thought you had to be logged in to pass through the IberiaPlusStore and access the Groupon site. So far, I have always done it like that and gained a not inconsiderable number of points for my purchases through the IberiaPlusStore.

The IberiaPlusStore is paying an extra 3 points per euro right now. Yes, it's extra points, but I'd give that up if I couldn't get my Iberia login to work.

Actually, IberiPlusStore paid a heck of a lot more than that in the past, around 10 Avios per Euro. So I kept going that way. The other thing is, idiotically or otherwise, I just kept doing precisely the same laborious procedure each time I participated in this promotion. The reason is, it always functioned without any major problems, so I just kept the same old routine.

It's always tracked, and a couple of times it was really lucrative. That's why I've just kept doing it all the same way. Until I had to change the password a few weeks ago in order to get back in to my account.

Piggybacking this as I can't seem to find an answer in the search...
Quick question.... can you transfer Avios from Iberia to a BA account that's part of a household group?
I know you can't to an Avios family account (not that these really exist any more I guess), but I wasn't sure on the BA accounts.
