BAEC slower. Last month I had the avios in my avios.com account in 48 hours. This month they took a week but they're still faster than BAEC.

I've never used E-Rewards for Iberia. From previous experience, they take too long to upload avios from promotions.

I find Rewards For Thoughts to be the quickest supplier of avios (24 hours except at weekends). I aim for 100 avios a day (two surveys).

*edit* Nothing new in my BAEC account this morning. Two weeks on. Frustrating.

I only use iberia miles on one account as I get a better redemption rate than ba or avios for survey points.

I transferred to Iberia at the beginning of March and the Avios posted in 3 days. Even I was surprised!

E-rewards seems to be back to their old tricks of asking for a substantial amount of information before screening out - it seemed to be getting better but I had two surveys today that disqualified me after I'd answered numerous questions (the one I just got was 68% completed when I got the Unfortunately, this study has received the number of responses required from your particular survey group message).

One more and I think I'm done with them; it's just not acceptable for them to accrue so much data only to not pay off.

I had one of those surveys last week, usually once your so far into a survey you know your not going to be screened out but I was well over 50% in and I got the same message.

I've given BA the details. I'm expecting a standard response of 'please wait 35 days'.

I've contacted BA via Facebook on the matter, let's see if they blame e-rewards!
Edit: response back saying to call the CS line on the matter.

"Unfortunately, I am unable to chase eRewards until the 35 days have passed from the date of your transaction. If these Avios are sill missing then, please let me know and I will investigate your case. I am sorry that I could not be more immediately helpful."
