Accor ALL Signature Discussion

I’ve been looking at the program for a few months but in the end I just decided it wasn’t really worth it for us personally as it doesn’t come with many benefits so I’d be pretty much just buying the reward points at a slightly better rate. Does look like a pretty decent program though
 
I’m a newer member, I pay monthly and mine has gone up to ~$210/month (BRL 760).

The value of the reward points is about $180 month so my question now is whether I want to pay $360 per year (which is the difference of $30 per month in value between the reward points I get and what I pay x 12 months) to all but guarantee platinum. This year I will reach platinum easily from where I currently am by a mix of signature status point and points for stays I am making anyway. I might even make Diamond, given my planned forward stays, so I will definitely need a spreadsheet to work out whether I should continue this year or not. I think in the future I might be a 6 month member each year and then cancel….
BRL 9,120 for a year = EUR 1,540 at the moment, and so you'd be paying EUR 40 a year extra (above the value of the ALL rewards points) for the status points. No value from a rewards points perspective for you any longer, though

Also don't forget when you pay using points you don't earn points...

I had hotel credit status even when using points to pay. There is one in Sydney and I had a similar one in Shanghai.

It could be a one off error or systemic error, as I only had a single stay at both hotels.

Status nights credit no matter how you pay, you don’t get point or status points unless you pay.
 
The new price is not a good deal. You would have to be opportunistic to get a good deal in the future in terms of promotions or favourable exchange rate movements.
 
A point of clarification with the program, the email says "Reward points never expire while your subscription is active." Does anyone know how long after your subscription expires the points expire?
