Note that all sAAver flights available on AA.com are able to be booked on BA.  When there are many flights on one day, they may not all be listed on BA.com.  So you will have to call to book it.  Get the phone fee waved because it wasn't able to be booked on line.


NOTE: Household accounts will not allow transfers from Iberia to BA. Make sure you don't have a household account, and if you do, split it up.

NOTE: When booking, erase your Avios number when entering your passenger information. This will make it much simpler to add your AA Advantage number at a later time.

Some accounts it asks for DOB. Unfortunately it goes right to the page without asking for the account I need it on.

my DOB matches, but I still get the error. Looking for some guidance.

As I posted on DD, Qatar did not correctly take my DOB, and it cant be changed, IME.
I changed the BA one yesterday, but still gives me the error.


ETA:
So I changed my BA DOB to match Qatar. But in order to lookup my DOB to see how its listed on BA, I needed to enter my OLD-REAL DOB, and now when I look at my profile, I see that the new DOB is listed. Somehow, even if you change it on BA, BA still also uses your original DOB for verification, so unless I figure out how to change it on Qatar, I'm still stuck.

That is the profile page, correct?
It doesn't unless you are talking under passport info which is blank.
Top part of page just has name.
