I've run into this, and resolved the situation only by checking in at the airport. Though I suppose if you have a spare hour or so you could go through the call centre.

For some time the online check-in system delivered an "acknowledgement" rather than a boarding card. The boarding card had to be collected at the check-in desk after a covid-related document check. But things change quickly, I've no idea of current procedures.
