Seems the UK website wasn't updated this morning so it was not possible to get to the AP purchasing system. I managed to get to the correct page using a U.S. VPN, but ultimately it would not let me checkout (assume it could detect my VPN and flagged as fraud). However, now they were in my basket, I was able to discount the VPN and finish the checkout process - but then it just sat on "Please wait while we complete your request" forever... Oh, and I now have almost £6k of pending charges using up my available credit which will probably take a week to fall off. A very frustrating and disappointing experience.
I'm going to guess UK members, for now, will be force to wait several hours on hold for member services to do it over the phone.
