The £42.50 was originally my money which I gave to BA...I can see both sides however I feel as if I am being ripped off...
If you choose to obtain a refund, you relieve BA of their obligation to get you from A to B. Their only liability is to refund you the fare in the way it was paid, i.e. Avios and cash for a redemption.
BA are thus being rather generous in what they've offered - your journey was effectively completely free!
