I don't understand what this has got to do with computers. On both occasions when I bought upgrades from WT+ to CW on board, there was no computer anywhere to be seen. I signed a hand written form filled in by the CSD. Even my credit card details were merely filled in and my credit card wasn't swiped on any machine on board. Is this just an excuse so that they can fob people off in the hope it will be long forgotten by the time the new computers arrive?

It does after all seem ridiculous to me that there may be people sitting down the back with £600 to spend, and half empty CW cabin up front, and BA is going to say "sorry mate- keep youre £600 we don't want it, even though our profits have just plunged". You'd think they would want every penny they could get!
