Not even in the detail of the T&Cs.
a) pre-register for the offer by following the "Register now" link provided on the online registration page supplied by BA and complete the registration process on ba.com (a "thank you" message will be displayed to confirm that your registration has been successful); and then
b) book and fly up to (and including) 31 March 2017. Triple Avios Points will be awarded on the first 8 flight sectors. A sector is a single qualifying flight between the point of departure and final destination with no scheduled change of aircraft.
The implication here is that you have to book and fly after registration in order to qualify, but without a proper definition of the start date, who knows ?

Sadly, not for me, in spite of using a different browser.
Sadly too, BA's offer T+Cs include this for phone bookings:
I can't imagine many calling BA from a BT landline. For those without a calls package, BT's set up charge is 19p, to which presumably must be added BA's fee, so perhaps 24p for the first minute. I don't know why they don't get it right.
Sadly too, BA's offer T+Cs include this for phone bookings:
Calls cost up to 5p per minute from a BT landline.

Last time it had the same language and you got it for any flights after the registration even if you had booked them before you signed up (certainly that's what happened for me anyway). Annoyingly I am also unsuccessful and am flying first tomorrow, will try again tomorrow morning!

Not for me: in my case, I had many pre-existing bookings and none of them got the bonus, only the few new ones I made after registering.

It doesn't actually explicitly say that.
...but there is no definition of the start of the promotional period.
