Yeah, I know.

I was 600 under 14,000 bc I was waiting for my final 1,000 status points of 2024 to post to get me across the line, but they landed on 2/1/25. The issue is I only received 11,000 status points from ALL in 2024 and I should have received 12,000. Something happened in Feb 2024 that changed the date of points landing. I didn't get any points in 02/24.

Waiting for points that had consistently (since March) posted a month late?

I don't understand why you were surprised that the points posted in Jan - nothing in the intervening 9 months pointed to any other outcome?

As an aside - you were aiming to get Platinum for a for a Hotel chain that you don't use - or used for a maximum of 1400 points - which is not a lot of staying at Accor?

Maybe a lot of future bookings that Plat will be a benefit for?

I hadn't noticed the discrepancy between the Feb points being posted in March and no posting in Feb, until I didn't renew at Platinum. I then took a closer look at why I didn't get the 12,000 status points.

I knew 1,000 points were posted monthly, so I (wrongly) assumed the 12,000 were covered, and I was focused on getting across the line with my paid bookings. I was Hilton Gold, so I mostly used Hiltons this year.

I pay on the 29th of each month, so I thought the December payment would back apply the points, but they assigned the SC to Jan.

And yes, I was planning a big year of Accor bookings this year at Plat level, starting with 2 weeks in Vietnam in March - all Accor bookings.
 
So you have decided on Vietnam @goldenhorn ?

I know weather is not ideal for July but we are looking to do this, are you happy to share your hotel choices?
Still undecided. Going to decide before the VF points increases on Jan 20 as I need to book SIN-HAN, SGN-SIN award flights with SQ.

The other fly in the ointment is I didn’t make Platinum with Accor due to a technicality with the dates status points are applied. Trying to see if I can get it resolved before I book my hotels. Not holding my breath.

If we go ahead I’ll update you with full itinerary and hotels soon.
