I'm writing specifically about the discount being extended into 2014 (currently outbound travel must occur on or before Dec 31, 2013)

Just got the good news from BA & Chase Visa :
Dear Mr tooblue,
As a loyal British Airways Visa Signature cardholder, we want to reward you by extending our popular 10% discount through 2013. When you book on any British Airways flight in any cabin using your card, you can continue to save 10% off the entire purchase price, including taxes, fees and carrier charges.*

And from the other thread:
Chase/BA have made this offer since I've had the card in 2011. Each year, BA indicates the offer will continue through the last day of the current year but then extends the offer into the following year.

Uh no, you asked if anyone remembers when the announcement of the discount for 2013 was made? The second thread lists the email that came out on December 11, 2012 extending the bonus for 2013. From the first post in that thread (from December of 2012):
I received the same email and have a copy of it in my BA folder.
And from the other thread:
I would assume we will hear from Chase in December if they are extending it. Or are you talking about some other 10% Chase discount?

I spoke to both Chase Signature services and the British Airways Gold desk regarding this promo in 2014. Chase had no information, but British Airways informed me that it will not be extended to 2014, and will expire as scheduled on Dec 31, 2013.
Quite a bummer for me personally, as I buy 10+ BA tickets every year for myself and/or my family using this discount.

EDITED: The offer page was updated a few days ago and I was too stupid to read post 7 above which already told everyone that. Sorry.

IMH, The offer page has been updated for a few days now and shows Dec 31, 2014. But have you been able to make a booking with the offer ? I tried again today and still get an error that the outbound date (march 2014) is not valid for the chase discount.

You're right and no, it still doesn't work. Sorry. I was so chuffed to have spotted the apparent extension that I failed to do due diligence before posting.

Same here, Mega. I posted the same question back in September for an upcoming trip in March 2014 on BA Signature Card thread. Although still been unable to book at least holding out hope now that it does appear they will extend.

Called Executive Club
I called the Executive Club Info number on the back of my card today. (1-800-452-1201) Explained that I had been unable to receive the discount when booking a flight using their webpage link and the promo code CARDOFFERU. The rep said they could book for me and said I would get the 10% off. She also assured me there would not be an additional charge for a phone booking since the problem is with their website.

Thanks for the update. Just to be sure I understand: did the telephone agent successfully apply the 10% code to a booking for you, or just say that she could/would? TIA.
