The reason I ask is that have just booked a WTP return GLA-PEK and in MMB and e-ticket receipt states 2 bags at 23kg. Now I know that is wrong for starters and confirmed on the baggage pages on BA.com and on here, but I could swear that Silver also got an extra bag on top of cabin allowance or have they done away with that and increased the weight to 32kg?
No they didn't.

Silver gets guaranteed two bags (except HBO fares) and 32kg/bag.
Gold gets guaranteed one extra bag (except HBO fares) and 32kg/bag.
See: http://www.britishairways.com/en-gb/...age-allowances

So if the cabin you're booked in has two bags as standard such as WTP then you will receive no additional piece allowance as silver.
