Did anyone ever find a solution other than waiting and trying again and eventually checking in at the airport?

On my last trip to the US (probably a fortnight ago) I had the same issue and couldn't check in online. The agent at NCL told me it was because BA's systems were showing my Green Card as having been issued by Canada. Once they updated it to show it being issued by the US then they were able to check me in successfully and, at that point, I could download the BP to my iPhone. For those who get the other scenario which is the OLCI getting stuck in a loop asking for passport / API details apparently BA are aware of this, it is intermittent, only affects people travelling to the US, and they are working to address it.
