They then told me that this fare would never be upgradable as it is a "sale fare"
Is this correct?
From what I read on here sale fares are just as upgradable using MFU or did I get this wrong?
Thanks for your help
I
only book in a sale, and I
always upgrade with Avios [albeit at the time of booking]..
There's either another dimension in play, or you just need to do the usual trick of calling BAEC again [and again] until you get someone who knows what to do!
