Another huge question as I've never took part in those double avios is: do I get double avios on both booking class, cabin bonus and tier bonus?

Same thing happened to me today. I have booked a RT SVG-SYD in F for end of June (ANCSALE). This offer would come in handy.
Anyone been able to get hold of some BAEC reps to get a reply?
When I Google it I find a similar offer with this T&C: "..resident in the United Kingdom or Republic of Ireland"
But if that's the case, why did they do a targeted BAExecutiveClub_NO mail blast

I also received this totally useless e-mail from BAEC. Don't they know where I live!?
EDIT: I don't get it, I do live in one of the countries listed in the terms & conditions, but I'm still unable to register.

I got the same letter, but just read it, didn't open it.
Now I would be more interested if they doubled the tps, since am missing lots to stay where I am.

Gotta love this discrimination against their loyal BA based "lovers" (you know who you are!!)
Now what EU regulation can we bleed them dry on this one!
