There is another offer and it's easy to get. It's right at BA.com
Offer is .... Get 50K miles on 1st purchase, pay the $75 fee. Then on 1 yr anniversary get the other 50K at $75 fee. So .... 100K and $150 fee.
How to get the offer????
Go to BA.com and do a dummy booking. Fill all the BS info as if you're purchasing the ticket. Hit submit and on the Step 5 (Payment) ... you'll see the offer.
P.S. I believe you do NOT need to book a flight right away .... so, double check please.
P.P.S. .......... looks like you do have to purchase a ticket with that card. Trying see if there is a cheap flight to use for that
IIRC, this strategy has been reported by millionmilesecrets on his blog before. But it's a great option if you don't mind paying $150. This offer has been there for a long time so I think it is an ongoing offer. For now, I personally would rather wait to see if Chase might come up with a real limited time 100K offer with a lower spend similar to the one from last year with $2,500 minimum spend. I wouldn't mind even if they increase it to $5K spend and will even consider it for a 10K spend but not 20K for the full 100K miles.
