  • Is anyone else having trouble trying to actually transfer to BA? I get a general system error every time I try to make a transfer.

    • Yes, I'm having trouble as well. Tried a couple times on 8/1/21, got email saying "Your miles transfer to Executive Club didn't go through", and "something went wrong". Was hoping the problem would be fixed by now, so tried again today (8/8) - same error. Guess I'm going to have to deal with their tech support - ugh.

      • SAME! I spent an hour on the phone this morning with Capital 1. They transferred me to multiple different departments. Finally, they confirmed that there does seem to be an issue- that it is occurring on their end and has nothing to do with my Cap1 account or BA account and they should have it resolved within a few hours. I tried again about 8 hours later and still isn't working :/

        • Still no luck with the transfer…. I sent a DM over Twitter. They suggested that rather than transferring 62k points into my BA account for a business class ticket, I instead purchase one for $5k using my card and then apply my points to the purchase. LOL

          • It finally worked for me this morning (Capital One -> BA transfer), transfer time was almost instantaneous.

          • Really?? I still can't get it to work. Called Capital one back and still zero help. Now they are telling me to make sure I am typing my BA account number in correctly (eye roll)

          • Yes - my transfer was a smaller one (6K), but other than that I can't think of anything that might explain why mine went through and yours hasn't. Hope you can get it to work!
