Defo not CEDR.
MCOL, at best.

I think you’ve kind of snookered yourself by offering to take avios upfront as compo without being more specific about what level of avios you’d consider the minimum in that case. BA has paid you according to rack rate price of avios, so as @JDB says, you’ve been settled as you wished.

I think the only thing left to challenge would be procedural as hinted by @meta. That definitely wouldn’t fly at CEDR as BA has been reasonable in acceding to your demand, as CEDR is judged on reasonableness and not legal accuracy. Even the “£5 less” rather than “£5 more” than the rack rate price of avios, bringing it to the lower round figure, shows BA’s artistry.

So it would have to be MCOL and, given you’ve already shot yourself in the foot, I wouldn’t waste your time or even the small fee.
