Yes i did thank you and im a frequent flyer, albeit not always with BA because frankly, euro traveler isnt worth it at all.

My point is that should i cancel, BA will resell the ticket and make more money on it, especially the popular route i have the ticket for. Taking that amount of money and making the cancellation effectively worthless for me means that i will simply not cancel, meaning that they lose money on a ticket that they could have resold at the elevated price i have just seen they are selling the tickets for.
