Changing Frequent Flyer Account

I have a feeling this question has been posted before.... But, I am currently a member of Oneworld through Royal Jordanian but I find that their customer service is awful. I would prefer to have my Oneworld account through someone like British Airways where it will be easier to use my frequent flyer rewards.

Anyone know if this is possible?

Thanks in advance,
Poor

You cannot transfer accounts, but you are allowed to open as many different accounts as you wish. In fact it is quite common to use several different ones in the same alliance. Your existing RJ balance is stuck with RJ forever (no cost-effective way to move it).

Really? There is no way to change it? Anyone?

That is very annoying. I would have to start a whole new plan at BA?

Is there any other places to switch other than better customer service?

Nope. Even within the same alliance you cannot transfer accounts. You could try to transfer miles via points.com, but from what I hear, the exchange rate is not very favorable.
