I got this offer and i was able to join, I have silver membership:
Dear Mr ly787,
I'm delighted to let you know about our great autumn offer, specially designed for you. Each time you fly between now and 16 December 2007 in Club Europe, Club World or FIRST*, we'll give you thousands of bonus BA Miles.
Take a look to see how many miles you could collect:
2 sectors 10,000 bonus BA Miles 30,000 bonus BA Miles
4 sectors 25,000 bonus BA Miles 70,000 bonus BA Miles
6 sectors 40,000 bonus BA Miles 120,000 bonus BA Miles
8 sectors 60,000 bonus BA Miles 160,000 bonus BA Miles
So for example, a return trip to New York in Club World, with connecting flights via London in Club Europe, will give you 40,000 bonus BA Miles. Do this four times between now and 16 December 2007, and you'll earn 220,000 bonus BA miles - that's two return reward flights** from London to Sydney.
Don't forget, you will also experience all the benefits of our premium cabins each time you fly. New Club World gives you even more privacy, thanks to a touch-button privacy screen - and you can enjoy a blissful night's sleep in the new 6 foot fully flat bed which shifts through a variety of positions - so you'll always be comfortable whether you're working, relaxing or sleeping. And whenever you feel peckish, simply head to the Club Kitchen and help yourself to a snack between meals.
For shorthaul flights, make the most of Club Europe's comforts, such as wider contoured leather seats with extra legroom, and a selection of delicious dishes, all served on Royal Doulton china.
Experience exceptional comfort, luxuriously refined surroundings and outstanding service in FIRST - from your Anya Hindmarch washbag, luxury velvet slippers and sleeper suit to our renowned à la carte menu.
To receive your bonus BA Miles, register before your next flight.
This is about half the points i got in last year's promotion.
Last year they gave me about 120,000 extra points for flying TLV-LHR-JFK-LHR-TLV in CW.

The French version of clause 4 of the T&Cs has an additional sentence (highlighted above) which is rather weird: "Please note that all the tariff types indicated on ba.com are eligible for this promotion. To be sure to choose an eligible ticket when reserving on ba.com, choose."
This seems to contradict what is just before, which limits eligiblity to more specific booking classes (excluding I class).

This is a joke! Without the 'I' Class it is a real waste of time in relation to last years Promo.
I think i might do a BAH-DOH-BAH 4 times and be done with it. Much more cost efficient!!!

Well I didn't receive any email either. So perhaps it isn't spread across 100% of European members? Nor did I see anything on the BA France website under special offers.

I find this quite annoying and don't think it is fare to randomly pick members for an offer. Should we not all receive the same rights? If it were Tier associated, one could understand. But my wife is blue and she got it where as I am gold and didn’t!
Anyone got any legal view on this?

Utter rubbish. It's BA's promotion, BA's rules, BA's choice. They don't have to target ANYONE if they don't want, remember. This is very common - what is the point of targeting someone who flies regularly with incentives...they don't need them. If the point of this is to tempt people to fly more, you can see why they target a Blue over a Gold. And if NOT being targeted means you'll fly with someone else, knock yourself out...maybe in a year if BA think they want to tempt you to fly with them more they'll target you.Double
for that one.
