Re: Free Accor Platinum Status

Hmm, haven't received the card yet...

wonder if there are any hotels up in kuta or legian i could try and get an upgrade for...
 
Re: Free Accor Platinum Status

This is what your card number looks like:

xx_xx_ Y ZZZZZZZZ C

xx_xx_ = Card type
Y = Status
ZZZZZZZZ = Account/Member number
C = Chack Digit

If log into the A-club website, you can just use the ZZZZZZZZ (being you account number!) and your password to login.

That explains a lot...

"Chack" is the NZ pronunciation??
 
Re: Free Accor Platinum Status

My card arrived today.
On the weekend I stayed at Novotel Canberra and requested an upgrade - received a King Executive room :D
It was a bigger room at the northern end of the building.
 
Re: Free Accor Platinum Status

would you have to book on their official website to get the upgrade?
 
Re: Free Accor Platinum Status

Card received - just in time for my holiday over Christmas.
WHEE!
Come on upgrade!
 
Re: Free Accor Platinum Status

Bugger, would seem that the promo has been closed as all I get when I try, is something along the lines of "this promotion code is invalid"
 
Re: Free Accor Platinum Status

would you have to book on their official website to get the upgrade?

I already had a booking so emailed the hotel and asked if it was possible to receive an upgrade as Platinum!
 
Re: Free Accor Platinum Status

So for upgrade to be possible, book a "lower" type room, via their website, then email them afterwards requesting an upgrade? Couldnt book say, expedia then ask for upgrade as they can see where you booked it from and likely to refuse?
 
Re: Free Accor Platinum Status

I booked through HotelClub, then joined A|club as plat. On check in I gave them my membership number and was upgraded on the spot. SO no need to book through them in my experience.

YMMV and indeed MMMV next week.
 
Re: Free Accor Platinum Status

My card in the mail today.

Pity about the Sofitels that are not part of A/Club
 
Re: Free Accor Platinum Status

Last time I stayed at Sofitel Gold Coast they said they were not part of A/Club...no points

Why do you say that?

BTW, to everyone else, do you think accumulating hotel points is worth more than accumulating flyer miles? Bang for point wise?

Both Sofitels in SE QLD are not A Club participants (franchises), as are a few Novotels in NSW
