Does anyone know how long it takes for the miles to show up in the BA account? Thanks.

When transferred from MR? Should be instant (though in less than 1% of the time it gets delayed 24-48 hours).

m'Inyan l'Inyan b'Oisoi Inyan:

Amex can be transferred to anyone's BA account. (as Dan posted on the main page) Is this also with regard to transferring Amex to Aeroplan, Singapore and the other transfer partners (that it can be transferred to anyone's account)?
