Sadly, that is BA in 2017.
YOU do not matter, as there will [probably] be someone else to buy your ticket. This may last for a year or so, until the numbers start to show up.
I have long since stopped expecting BA HQ to care, unless forced to by legislation.
PS: We fly AA to the USA [ex-DUB] a few times a year. We still credit to BAEC, for the 2-4-1 voucher benefits, but thats' it.
