I imagine that the message is used for travel budget 'key decision makers' who BA want to be nice too. When ECCA's still existed, I think they used to come with a few complimentary Golds, Silvers etc.

I don't think it's a message that's used for the general public.

It is not just key travel decision makers that get Gold and Silver cards. In my last two companies (big suppliers to BA) the Account Directors and some of the senior Account Managers were given comp cards.

This is very different from the "I'm Gold with XX airline, will you give me the same status on BA?" type request.
