Future travel voucher applied to reserved booking

BA Pricing dept is infamous for not "finding" the same fares that are available online. I've been battling with them all day in hopes of using 3 future travel vouchers....the type that needs to be phoned in....because the system won't allow issuance of a mega voucher.

I am wondering if it possible to put an itinerary on hold by paying the £5 or £10 reserve per pax ( which holds price for 3 days) then call in and have the agent apply the value of each voucher to the respective travellers ticket. Has anyone attempted this before?

Yes, done this numerous times.

When they eventually ticket it, you get any balance refunded in a new voucher.

the hold £5/10 is also refunded when you book using the voucher.

FYI - until ticketed it will showing MMB as on hold, even suggesting you need to pay. Don't worry, it won't come off hold / loose it
