I'm surprised. You don't think that spend would have been better on another card?
It was to get the 50K bonus and it was only charged not spent... (You chap the difference? That is what I corrected before...)

But why not go for the other BA offer without having to do all that stuff?

Dear JJ1000,

Thank you for your recent inquiry regarding this British
Airways credit card account.

The enrollment incentive associated with the application
you completed is for a total of 100,000 bonus Avios with a
$95.00 annual fee. You will receive:

* 50,000 bonus Avios after the first purchase
* 25,000 bonus Avios after $10,000 in purchases within the
first year
* 25,000 bonus Avios after $20,000 in purchases within the
first year

Unfortunately I am unable to honor your request to receive
a $75.00 annual fee and the additional 50,000 bonus Avios
upon the first year anniversary instead of receiving
25,000 bonus Avios after both the $10,000.00 and $20,000
spending thresholds. I apologize for the inconvenience
that this may cause you.

If you have any further questions, please reply using the
Secure Message Center.

Thank you,
Plus I saved money on annual fees...

This way you have the miles a year earlier+don't have to pay the fee for 2 years+are able to leverage the cards for new cards/signup bonuses a year earlier?

I wonder how many people complete the $20k in 'charges'.
I plan on doing so, hope to get it done soon.

Saved money on AFs, yes, and ability to churn, yes.

I just feel that this type of "shtick" is the type that rocks the boat.

Maybe I'm just risk averse :P

I was referring to charging double your CL each month. Should have made that clear.

What’s all this cash back BS? Didn't you get the memo? I am a born again points/miles person!  :)

Can someone tell me the churn ability of this card.

I have the BA card and would like another 50k.

Do I have to close the current one first? Any waiting period after that?

Thanks

BA card is possibly the hardest card to churn. Meaning you can't.
