AMEX platinum Accor plus reinstated

Interesting as it had felt more and more 'under the counter' of late

I think it was a necessary move on their behalf given the increase in annual fee. Some cardholders may not have been aware of the benefit and could justify the previous $1,200 annual fee, however with the fee now up to $1,450 that may have been the breaking point for some and the reminder of that companion card was a 'necessary evil'.
 
For those retaining Accor Plat by renewing annually direct with Accor - if you sign up for the AMEX free Accor plus you will get soft landing back from Plat to Gold rather than back to Silver - but Gold goes not deliver Exec Lounge access nor free breakfast - totally useless for me - obviously YMMV and you will need to assess AMEX Plat card value with this fee increase.
 
Received my Accor Plus welcome email today (Im a previous Accor member but never A+). Says physical card will come 2-3 weeks
 
Still waiting for A+... (no previous Accor relationship)

Only want it to book the free night before everybody else, effectively useless otherwise...
 
Just got AFR but still waiting for Accor+, for those who received Accor+ were you a new Accor member or have an existing account?

New member.

When does the free night benefit kick in? When I tried a dummy booking it said I didn't have a stayplus benefit available.
 
Anyone seeing the free night online yet?

I got mine straight away when I created my account. When I log in and go to "My profile" (the page where you see your card and status), under the "Find a Hotel" section there is "Use my Stay Plus benefit for this reservation" and you have to turn that to "Yes" I think to see it in the hotel search.
 
It is now the tenth business day Accor.

Not the best way to introduce yourself to a new customer...

Thanks, that's where I'm looking, but no sign of it yet.

Struggling to use your Frequent Flyer Points?

Frequent Flyer Concierge takes the hard work out of finding award availability and redeeming your frequent flyer or credit card points for flights.

Using their expert knowledge and specialised tools, the Frequent Flyer Concierge team at Frequent Flyer Concierge will help you book a great trip that maximises the value for your points.

My Stayplus benefit now shows up in my account (created last Friday).

Had a quick browse of Sydney hotels and looks like the Sofitel Darling Harbour is going to be difficult to book with availability pretty woeful (although helpfully they had availability for a stay tonight :rolleyes:).

Searched Bangkok in December which shows a lot more availability including the Sofitels/Pullmans.

Just got email confirmation for my A+. :)

Where should I go to check the Stay Plus benefit, accorplus or leclub?
In accorplus website, I clicked: my name -> my profile -> dashboard, I can see my card and status on this page, and on top of the card, there is a Find a Hotel section, not seeing "Use my Stay Plus benefit for this reservation".

Did I missed anything here? Thanks.
