27 Nov ... Can not search for a flight on the updated BA.com website interface , after inputting all informations ( destinations , paxs and dates etc) it pretended to load and then just reverts back to the home page with all fields now cleared. iMac/Safari

Trying to update "My Personal Information" in "Manage My Account", the website sends me to this URL:
https://www.britishairways.com/trave...b&sec=managacc
that asks me to confirm my Date of Birth. Once I enter that date, the URL gets forwarded to:
https://www.britishairways.com/trave..._gb?eId=106009
Which then gives me a "The page you requested cannot be found." error.
Sop how can I update my details online?

I happen to know that my "your profile" was 100% complete, but after a fruitless call to a useless agent on the BA silver helpline about my missing 2000 avios Christmas bonus, I logged in and noted that it was only 90% complete. It had forgotten my phone number, so I sorted it back up to 100%.
I had to call last week about a flight change and spoke to BA holidays. The 90% thing happened again. Tried to sort it but after entering my date of birth I just get the "This page cannot be found" page.

Any workarounds for reporting missing avios? I have the "page not found" problem, irritatingly just after entering the ticket number. You do expect the odd website glitch here and there, but something as serious as this not being fixed or acknowledged for three weeks is absolutely disgraceful.

Anyhow, I just called the Gold line on a mid afternoon which seems to be generally very quick and quieter. All done and dusted in about 8 minutes. I logged out of my BA account and the missing Avios were there. Personally this is the route I would always take, speaking to a human and the Gold line are generally quite good.

BA Avios e-store page asking me to log in despite showing me logged in at the top of the page. When I do log in (again) it takes me back to the home page, and when I eventually get to the e-store landing page it invites me to join the BAEC!

Problem booking this journey online . . .
Sorry if this had been addressed, but, for example looking at SYD-AKL using BA Avios to book on Qantas in J, why for example 10/2/18 does award availabilty show but the process will not proceed online. It does if the class is Y and it even does for the same day AKL-SYD in J. Expert flyer shows seats available in U.

I’m finding that many IB flights are not showing up when searching BA for awards. I know the award seats are there because I called AA and booked one flight with them. Anyone else noticing this? It’s for intra EU flights. I guess i may just call tomorrow, but I really wanted to use avios + cash, can i do that when calling in to book?

I've noticed that the BA site is not showing AA availability properly. I believe it's been previously reported but sometimes the availability shows, sometime it doesn't and you have to search for the same criteria again until the results come back. Maybe IB is affected too? Having said that, LATAM seems to be showing up fine for me

Having spent 10 days attempting to update my address details online I decided to call them today. The agent said she didn't have authorisation to update personal details, I had to do it online. I pointed out I was calling because I couldn't update my details online due to a bug, what was I to do? She then said she was aware of the bug & it would be fixed within 24 hours. Something not right with this organisation.

Avios redemptions
Tried booking flights -355 at midnight last night via the app and came up with some sort of error message saying not available. Was trying for Nassau so tried Paris or Amsterdam and no availability there either.
Tried again a short while ago and they were luckily available for Nassau.
Anyone know why the flights were unable to book at midnight as is usually the case?
Thanks

That's exactly as I understand it. Midnight UK time is at present one hour too early.

Thank you for confirming that. I was assuming Expert Flyer should be reliable.
