Woke up to seeing Platinum to end November 2026.

As a refresher, I was a Platinum earnt in 2024 and only had stayed 14 nights in 2025.

Renewed Accor Plus on about 23 September.
Received StayPlus the next day.
Surprisingly still no status nights from renewed AccorPlus

Took a few screenshots in case of a downgrade come end of the year.

When you received your stay plus on 24 September, did you notice if it had an expiry date of 2025 or 2026?

Isn’t the change on 1st October?

Yes the change is on 1 October - eg 1 StayPlus converts to 2 "StayPlus" BOGOF
But I shouldn't notice any change in status as I'm still Platinum to end 2025 (earnt in 2024).
Its also my understanding of the program changes that all loyalty members will get their tier reviewed on 31 December from then on.
I'm certainly waiting to see what happens when the rubber hits the road so to speak.
 
When you received your stay plus on 24 September, did you notice if it had an expiry date of 2025 or 2026?
I renewed on 26 September.
The following day, my Stay Plus appeared and valid till 11/26 but chose to book Sofitel before changes for next year @aikman @HappyFlyerFamily
Some inconsistency there.
Of note, my Gold status changed this morning to 11/26.
When 30 bonus nights drop after tomorrow, that will make me Platinum ( having stayed 31 nights in 2025)

Phone call to A+ confirmed to me that 30 bonus nights will land after 1 October @HappyFlyerFamily
 
I renewed yesterday and it said I had 1 free stay plus night to use till 11/26.
But when I tried to check now, the website is not doing any stay plus reservations due to the changes.

Frustrating, I hope I didnt miss out on booking the free night.
