Interesting suggestion on self paying then asking trip for a refund of it....maybe if you moan enough they will select the seat you want for you but never let you pay and get a refund...
Make the problem theirs to solve. Either get your FFP in the booking or sort out your seat reservation. I don't suggest you book and pay for it unless they give you a credit for the cost upfront, trying to claim it back might be hard...
