Well despite the fact that I am based in a European country outside of the UK, I still get saddled with the UK TP earning thresholds for Silver & Gold. The only Euro country, I might add, outside of the UK, that has the UK thresholds imposed on it !
Nor do BA serve my country, so I can't even earn additional TP's as I connect to & from London, to fly onwards with BA, as do other Euro based members.

(or more accurately

)
Sigh.... unfortunately I don't have a mainland Euro address that I could "move" my account to either
I wonder though if I were in a position to "move" to a mainland Euro address, would I then be a "Euro-Cheat", even though I am already based in a Euro country outside of the UK ??
