Can't reserve seats for BA Avios Reward booking?

I've redeemed Avios via Ba.com for QA flights but I cannot see anywhere for me to change the seats we have been allocated? No seat options on BA website. On the Qatar website I can access the booking and the see the seats they've auto-assigned but can't see anywhere to change them? How do I do this? It's Q-Suite and, as a couple, we'd prefer a centre pair. We are both BAEC Gold if that makes any difference.

Thanks for any advice.

You can call a QR contact centre to select seats if you can't do it online. Find a contact centre in your country via https://www.qatarairways.com/en/help.html
Only parties of 3 or 4 are allowed to select the centre quad on a flight with Qsuites. You'll only be allowed to select the window seats.

Thanks! I didn't realise that. I've seen so many couples in the centre seats? Is this because they do open up at OLCI for parties of 2?

I believe the check in agent at the airport can open up the centre seats for parties of 2, but in my experience they were blocked during OLCI.
