Just re-read the OP and the Speedbird Club PDF. I AM surprised. Wow.

...upon payment of the fare difference.

Maybe I'll be wrong, but I would be VERY surprised if BA were to move to same day changes without collecting any fare difference. Not collecting a change fee is a big policy change for BA in itself. The comms still mention fare difference applies for any changes, I really wouldn't be expecting the fare diff to also be waived when changing to a more popular flight, just because I was changing from semi-flex M to semi-flex K (or whatever). There are different letter booking codes for a reason - to be able to have multiple price points.
