Had the same issue with all seats blocked (except middle seat) and was then moved within an hour to my preferred seat.
Tried calling and they confirmed the seats were blocked and would only be released nearer the flight time. Frustrating, as Expedia shows far more open seats. Shall try as recommended and use the app. Otherwise we'll stick to two aisle seats with someone between us if the flight is full.
