Carpathius Mar 2022 8:54am, 22 Mar 2022 21,658 posts	0 Carpathius Mornage swamp rabbits Trying to get through to the staff helpline for the umpteenth time. Currently 18th in the queue. I was 24th. Yesterday I got all the way down to 1 or 2, but was then cut off with "nobody available, try later".

IT GRANNY 🇮🇸 Mar 2022 9:17am, 22 Mar 2022 14,769 posts	0 IT GRANNY 🇮🇸 Urgh, Carp. On bloody call centres and crap service, I am also not too pleased with BA. Ive 90000 airmiles due to expire, but it is impossible to book a car rental or hotel online at the moment for reasons known only to BA. It says to call, then says it is very busy, only to call for "urgent" matters and that solutions can be found on website (they can't). I tried to open a nectar account to transfer my airmiles but it would not go through as I am not on electoral register. I'll try to pair it with mum's nectar later so we can use it for hotels. There are no particularly useful flight routes for me and by the time I pay the extra fees and an overnight stay at Heathrow, I might as well fly direct with easyjet. You would think BA did not want you to spend your airmiles or something. Perish the thought!
LazyDaisy Mar 2022 10:14am, 22 Mar 2022 35,455 posts	0 LazyDaisy I'm in the same boat (plane?) ITG with far too many avios. I haven't thought about connecting to my Nectar account - I have got one but haven't shopped at Sainsbury's for so long I'm not sure it's even still open.
Groundhog Mar 2022 10:27am, 22 Mar 2022 4,166 posts	0 Groundhog LazyDaisy if you have your card and number you should be able to recover your Nectar account. It's a lot of faffing but I found the Nectar account call people OK to deal with
IT GRANNY 🇮🇸 Mar 2022 10:28am, 22 Mar 2022 14,770 posts	0 IT GRANNY 🇮🇸 LD, apparently you get more for your points if you convert to Nectar to pay for hotels.

Have cancelled my teaching tomorrow night and our meal out tonight for our 3rd year together with GF Hope everyone is well, I've been a bit AWOL as so busy. Will make sure I rest.

Welcome to this year’s 700 thread: Amazing cake, amazing badges, amazing people

Training goals: Don’t cry, don’t die

Links to targets and 700 table below. Reach 700 miles and we’ll heap you with bunting

with extra points for bins. And if you go under or over 700 miles, noone will mind. 700 miles is neither necessary nor sufficient. Overachievers: please reset your target so everyone gets a spot in the sun heart
