Given Accor have published the availability criteria now effective and are known for years to have quirky IT, the answer is self evident. The changes are big and clearly still being worked on, keeping in mind the 1st October takes 24 hours to get around the world, I would expect the quirks to clear in the next few days.

You received the same message, verbatim, that I did from Accor when I reached 18K & 22K status points earlier in the year. If you are at 11K for the year, then it was definitely a mistake that you received it, though of course the fact they have communicated this to you means you may well be able to talk someone into crediting an extra SNU to your account as a gesture of goodwill. Show your mate at the SofitelYet, as I posted, I only have 11,000 odd status points.
I maintain my
I wouldn’t care so much except the extra SNU still hasn’t posted. (but no doubt it’s just a new system glitch so I’m not going to hold my breath
As I’m in Queensland, it’s probably appropriate for me to say:Show your mate at the Sofitel
( I will)
Dining discount is now 30% for the table up to 10 diners.Excuse my ignorance but I rarely stay at Accor Hotels nowadays - still 50% off dining for 2 guests?
What happens if stay is booked via a 3rd party? Are all Accor Mship benefits out the window? TIA
That's right - bookings made through corporate TAs and associated OBTs (online booking tools) are generally fine for status benefits; these are typically non-commissionable rates, with the agencies making their money from the client (your company) in other ways. The hotels and airlines know they can't exclude these corporate channels from being eligible as it would see off too many bookings! Exceptions exist though on occasion, like where your agency OBT is also presenting non-cancellable, distressed inventories from Booking[dot]com and the like, as these are the same ones the public can book, and would usually not be eligible for benefits. The terms for a given rate, which you should be able to find before completing the booking, should confirm eligibility or otherwise
I use the one from this website.
Thanks - I pretty much used the perks in a similar way, oh well.... I've had a good run since getting the membership 'free' through Platinum Amex 4 years ago (and cancelling the Amex a year later), I've never been billed for my Accor membership, and somehow got Platinum rolled over last year without meeting the criteria - so I think my luck may run out after this migration and only 12/60 nights this year
I didn't bother to renew and just received an email. They expire at the end of 2025 so will try and use what I can before then
Which can't be saved to Apple Wallet!
I’m tempted to cancel one and see what happens but holding off to see if this actually works.LOL Accor with their exceptional customer service. Took them 1 day to respond to my Whatsapp message, and I didn't even get a chance to finish typing the sentence. They already mark it done??....

Come January 1, those nights will reset to zero, and you'll have to get to 60 again in 2026. So basically, will be starting from nothing. Although, if you have a October renewal, you'll get another 30 nights when you renew.View attachment 473476
As a new member, it's a shame I've not been given until end 2026 to achieve Platinum. 30 nights in 3 months is a big ask, so it seems if be better off not staying at accor until after Jan 1st.
At that point would i have 0 nights, or still 30 with Accor+
Well there were two extra months in the latest promo, so renewal isn't effective (presuming that's when the nights land) until 1 December.
