BA Promo: Double (base) Avios (max 10 flights), 27Sep-31Dec 18, registration required

BAEC email announcing double Avios on all flights for the rest of 2018 together with a link to register. Tried twice to register, each time the error "your attempt has been unsuccessful, you are not eligible for this offer" pops up. Anyone else get this?

Just had exactly the same experience.

BA really don't help themselves, do they? Sending out an email to one of their most loyal customers, advertising an offer and then saying you can't have it.

You couldn't make it up.

No email here yet.

Any chance you could copy the T&Cs here. Particularly keen to know flights already booked/ticketed count.

Yes unsuccessful or not eligible. Thought it was just me but looks like it’s yet another IT blunder. Either that or members of FlyerTalk aren’t eligible

I also received the same error when attempting to register. Sent e-mail feedback, so will see if any response is forthcoming.

Same here: "Your registration has been unsuccessful, unfortunately you are not eligible for this offer."

BA seems determined to convince us they are useless at not just securing customer data, but also using it!

Reassuring that it’s not just me that received the email and was unsuccessful in registering.
I was feeling a bit miffed!

Just arrived here. Sadly I am already booked up for the rest of the year, so no benefit available. tried to register anyway, and got the instant "Your registration has been unsuccessful, unfortunately you are not eligible for this offer."

Assuming that BA hasn't suddenly become charitable, I assume this is an attempt to sell unused flight inventory?
