Yes, particularly if you try to check in near the check in time limit (eg 90 min prior).

IME I have a current xONEx which has been messed up (somehow) by either BA, AA or QF during date changes. On a recent flight MIA (AA) LAX (QF) SYD, AA were unable to issue the BP for the onward QF flight and told me to get it at LAX. Problem was a 2 hr connection at LAX and we had to get to QF (lounge or gate) after arrival within space of 30 min before the check in cut off was invoked. QF lounge staff had to phone ticketting downstairs prior to issuing the BP and this took more time than I possibly imagined because they were already dealing with other problems. I don't know the reason for the problem but I still can't use QF MMB for upcoming flights on the same ticket (inspite of QF phone staff saying "alls OK".
