Website won't complete bookings at the moment!!
 

Getting told that the website is in trouble (rejecting booking after payment supposedly completed) and I'm chasing the last seat at a given price - very frustrating. Can't do it by phone either they say. Try again in 2 hours they say...
BA when will you get some fresh, capable IT staff?
Anyone/Everyone else enduring this?

There's a thread for this: http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/briti...ed-thread.html

Why can't you just make the booking on the phone?

Sorry for not spotting the thread...the telesales agent says "computer says no"

Then the chances are that you're chasing a seat that isn't actually available, and that may be the reason for the error.

I hope that you get lucky, but I'll be surprised if you manage to complete the booking.

Nope, the website seems to have issues at the moment.

It just died on me during the "We're finalising your booking" phase as well.

there is a global issue with amadeus right now

I hope that is not because of my complicated upgrading this morning... still waiting for the Back Office to validate and for the ticket to be re-issued :D

I am sure it will be alright in the end
