Received the Email that I got 90k Bonus points. 2 days later got 10 cancellation emails for all my flights. Called them agent claimed she had no idea who/why was cancelled but will look in to it. A day later received reissue emails for all and sure enough they took out the 90k today. Same story happened on my wife's account just didn't call cancellation and reissue emails arrived on its own and points were deducted.

Anyone else have this?

Have there been any reports of IB revoking award tickets made with the 90K?

Redeemed, not for maximum value, but definitely for a good value. My only fear is that one of the tickets I bought is dated earlier than actual redemption flight.
I've been waiting over 5 years with bated breath for someone to say that!

Hmm. Wonder if they would just claw back 9,000 per flight missed, as it’s missed, or all 90,000 at the first missed flight, or not at all. So many variables.

Clawing back - I might be able to live with a negative Avios Balance. Canceling issued award ticket - that's an issue!

I guess sometimes it really is too good to be true?
Hopefully there will be a successful class action lawsuit, not because we're entitled to the points but of the sneaky way they're dealing with it.

Acc to the t&c if Iberia gives you a refund without requesting you may be able to sue them and end up w the points and not have to pay for flights. The clawback provision was for if you requested a refund
