If you get matched is the $95 Annual fee waived (from the 50K offer)?
If they make you call in after you complete spending so that they can manually add the miles I doubt they'll change anything with regards to the annual fee.

Also got matched (via SM). Opened the card the first week of October.


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

We will be happy to honor the better offer. However, we
must ask you to contact us once you have reached $10,000
in purchases and then again when you have reached $20,000
in purchases within the first year. At that time, we will
add the matching 25,000 and 25,000 Avios. The total you
will earn after contacting us both times would be 100,000
Avios if you make the full $20,000 in purchases.

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

Thank you,

Linda Lundelius
Customer Service Specialist

Is it really worth it to get matched? Aren't there other cards that'll give more for you money for spending 20k?

I mentioned that I recently made a booking for a flight on BA.com and received this offer before purchasing my ticket (which is true but it happened a year ago). I just applied for the card a few weeks ago and thought I'd have nothing to lose by asking them to honor this deal.

They said:

Thank you for contacting Chase about British Airways
account.

Your enrollment offer is for 50,000 Avios after $2,000 in
spending the first 3 months. Please allow 4-6 weeks after
reaching the $2,000 spending threshold for the Avios to
post to your Executive Club account.

Pleas contact us on your account's one year anniversary
and we will be glad to add the additional 50,000 Avios to
your account.

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

That was the follow up message I received. The original response I got was:

Thank you for contacting Chase about the British Air
offer.

We would be glad to honor this offer. Please contact us
after you receive your British Air credit card to the
account can be noted.

If you have any further questions, please reply using the

you shoulda sent it with that sm. Which did you ask to match? For the current 100k offer, you don't need a screenshot. At least ime
Always use an Amex, you'll thank me one day.

There should be an option to attach an image at the bottom of the SM before you send it.
