100% MR to BA offer
Just found out and checked with Amex that they have extended the offer for gold/platinum/centurion cardholders until end sept 2011.
Transfer MR to BA at 1:2 which is great!! I didn't get an email but heard and called them up and they confirmed that it applies and is not a selective offer. :-)

I wouldn't let the U.S. based people on the BA board hear you say that. You might be threatened with a few pitchforks. They think the recently announced upcoming changes to the BA FF program is going to gut all of their hard earned Executive miles and some are actually demanding BA reverse any recent MR transfers they made pleading they were essentially baited and switched. (Not sure how some are so sure the changes are going to be so horrendous when BA hasn't provided any firm details of the changes, but you know FT.)

It is UK and is TARGETTED. If you did not get the mailing, you will not get the bonus. Do NOT believe Amex reps who tell you differently on the phone, they are making it up as they go along - although if they will put it in an email to you, then you might want to risk it.
