You may need to call - point them to this page and "oneworld equivalents":

British Airways' Speedbird Club: Seating Policy
Customers eligible for free seating at time of booking
  • Customers who have booked in J, C, W, Y ;
  • All customers travelling in FIRST;
  • Customers travelling on a corporate dealt ticket, using a BACCI code.
    Agencies that have British Airways dealt corporate clients should make sure that they include the BACCI code in the booking, using the following GDS entries:
    • Amadeus: SK DTID BA-Client Code
    • SABRE/Worldspan: 3OSI BA DTID.Client Code
    • Galileo: SI.BA*DTID.Client Code
  • Premier, Gold and Silver Executive Club members and oneworld equivalents;*
...

*It is important that you enter the Executive Club or any of the oneworld equivalent numbers in your PNR so that you can access the seat map at the time of booking. Alternatively your customer will be able to access the seat map via Manage My Booking on ba.com. ...
