Whilst you might not get BA, you might get Iberia (I have but can't remember who I signed up through), in which case, you can set up an Iberia Avios account and transfer from there to BA (although I think you have to wait 3 months after setting up the Iberia account before you can transfer out). Can anyone check if they got Iberia as an option from a HHonors invitation?
