Accor Fast Track to Silver/Gold/Platinum

[thatsthatmattressman]

21 would be the maximum number of nights needed for Gold.

However, it may be less. The detailed T&Cs suggest that when you get to Gold, you will then be entitled to the Gold Fast Track to Platinum. You might then get another 15 Nights, although you would need to work in with the offer dates for the second lot of nights.

Interesting yes oz_mark (you are always an expert on the details!) yes I see now there are more detailed T's and C's (they actually posted them on Google Drive ;-) : English_Fast Track TCs_Accor Plus_Final.pdf

So that may mean
4 carry over status nights from last year + 2 nights consumed this year gives me 6 to start
I get 12 from my next stay with the offer (10 nights + 2 via Double nights offer) would give me 18 nights.
To get to Gold I only need 6 more nights via Double status promotion hitting 30 nights.

So to get to Platinum, I get 17 nights on my next stay (15 from the offer + 2 via Double nights promo) taking me to 47 nights then I only need to stay 7 more nights via Double status promotion giving me 14 taking to me to Platinum at 61 nights.

All up in my case then I would need 15 nights via the Double promo and this offer to from Silver to Platinum.

If I had no existing nights (rolled from last year + stays already this year which is 6 nights) then yes .. it would be 18 nights I need.

Somewhat perverse as someone going from Gold to Platinum has a harder route because they don't get the Silver 10 night bonus.

Interesting info thanks.

My situation is i am on 12 nights now with membership renewing end of this month, if I spend 4 nights now (getting 10 bonus + 8 nights) to get gold any thoughts on how it works when my member renews? Will I be treated similar to the above where I can still benenfit from the 15 nights for gold meaning only need a further 8 nights to reach platinum....seems doable for me this year if that is the case.

So I stayed 4 nights, checked-out this morning. Checked app just now and went from Silver to Gold. Pleased this is he first time an accor offer has worked for me. Will test if another night stay will trigger the 15 bonus nights.

I noticed that Breakfree and Mantra and Peppers etc. are not explicitly listed as participating in the promotion but are also not on the Exclusions link either (like Ibis Budget is). Anyone stay at any of these properties in relation to this promotion and have an outcome?

 

[SeaWolf]

Yes, I stayed at the Peppers Kings Square in Perth last weekend, can confirm that it definitely triggered the 10 bonus nights to be added to my account.

Thanks @SeaWolf .. a lifetime of reading T's and C's .. always gives me the jitters ;-)

It’s been a while since I’ve stayed at multiple Accor properties - how long on average do you find it take for completed stays to credit into your account?

A day or two usually.

Just noticed Grosvenor Hotel Adelaide is no longer branded Mercure. Does that mean they no longer qualify as nights/Status points at the Mercure rate?

Thanks, been 2 days so far so let’s see if tomorrow shows anything.

It doesn’t fall into one of the exception earning categories (e.g. mantra, ibis) so I would think it earns at the same rate?

I generally have had my stays credited within a day or two. My last stay at the Sebel Harbour Lights Cairns has still not been credited and that was two weeks ago. I needed it to get to Gold. I phoned Accor customer service three days ago who said she would follow it up with the hotel. I am patient so will wait a while longer.

~8 days later was still waiting for a peppers stay to credit so called to get it sorted. Had a good chat with the representative who indicated many customers have been complaining recently about stays crediting and endless issues with the All app.

I hope it's still earning, as I have booked there for April and they were included in the recent 30% off sale. They don't appear on this list: EXCEPTIONS HOTELS AND BRANDS LIST

At this stage, their personal page still lists them as earning (pink box):

I'm looking to do the Accor Fast Track as well but would like to ask are there any exclusion to what hotels you can stay at? Looking at the Mercure Melbourne Therry Street and want to make sure that's included. Better yet if anyone has a list of exclusion can they post it as well?

This document contains the exceptions which are located here: EXCEPTIONS HOTELS AND BRANDS LIST (for au/nz really just ibis budget)

Has anyone signed up as a Silver member ... made it to Gold then was able to sign up for the Gold to Platinum offer?

 

[chowda85]

Hmm didn't think you had to specifically sign up again? In saying this I do have 5 nights stay starting 31/3. This will be my first stay since reaching gold...so will let you guys know early April (unless others can confirm) - thanks!

I thought it was all part of the same offer - you should be able to reach gold in 10 or platinum in 18 nights from silver.

I've signed up as Silver but struggling to get multple stays credited to my accounts over the last two weeks that to accor IT so haven't made it to gold yet.

 

[maia200]

Just made it to Accor Gold...now to aim for Plat....however not sure I can travel that much...happy with my gold for now, although I do enjoy challenges...and for the person above who asked about Mantra - yes it is included. I had to call Sebel for my points to be credited as they were having system errors apparently.
