When I asked about the Discover option I was told it does not happen often, that they do it about every two years. I have also been told other things as well. It should just be a product change and you keep the AAOA, so that should not spook Barclays. I am sure I have done more to spook Barclays recently than you have! I just added 4 cards to my portfolio, sometimes I think they are a little too sensitive. I am waiting to see what happens, while waiting I cashed out my points with them just in case! I will certainly make sure that if they close my account, which I pay off in full I will have words with them! (Especially, because I am due those bonus points for Christmas!)
The Walmart Discover is a new trade line. It will lower your AAoA as it shows up as a new account.
From everything I've read, it has taken usually at least 1 year and in some cases longer, for the upgrade to happen. I wouldn't worry too much about Barclay if you are at least six months out from when you opened your account.

It's at the 5 month mark, so hopefully I will be OK!
