Buy Silver status for another year [BA offer]

My membership year ends in mid Nov and I've just had an email from the exec club offering to sell me renewal at silver for another year for £495. I'm currently short of 600 TPs but have a CE flight coming up which gets me to renewal so I'll not be taking up their offer - anyone else had this offer?

Dear Physci,

At British Airways we understand that at the moment there are a number of reasons why you may not be flying with us as often as you would like to. This in turn means that you may not earn enough Tier Points to renew your Silver membership this year.

As a special one-off gesture we would like to offer you the option of paying a fee to renew your current Silver membership*. The price is £495, which will maintain your Executive Club Silver membership and all the associated benefits and rewards for the next 12 months.

To take advantage of this exclusive offer, simply call 0800 408 0009, no later than 8pm on Tuesday 10 November. Please note that renewals cannot be made after this time and we regret that we will not be able to offer it to you again.

I hope you continue to enjoy the benefits of your Silver membership and we look forward to welcoming you onboard in the year ahead.

Warm regards,

XXXXXXXXXX
Executive Club Manager
