Free ALL Gold Status for QF Silver or above - also Points Club Plus

[CaptainCurtis]

By my calculation, QFF/Accor are now in breach of their T&Cs as 4 weeks have passed?

 

[astrosly]

I think this is trying to say that Bronze members are eligible if they hold either of those statuses (since Silver and up are already eligible and having CL or PC+ would be irrelevant)

That said I am PC+ and have not yet got gold so it's not impossible that it might cause some issues with QF's fragile systems

The placement of the semicolon changes this logic. That is,
"This offer is available to all Qantas Frequent Flyer members, except Bronze members unless they hold Points Club Plus and/or Chairmans Lounge benefits" would be what you are intepreting.

But by putting the semicolon where it is it is confusingly saying the below applies to the two sets:
This offer is available to
(all Qantas Frequent Flyer members except Bronze members)
MINUS
( they hold Points Club Plus and/or Chairmans Lounge benefits)

Today I still have not been extended to 2023 as a WP with PCP and Accor Gold but I received the registration confirmation mail.

Correct, I’ll given them a couple of days leeway and send them an email on Tuesday.

I've emailed Olivia Wirth - I've booked a number of stays at Accor properties in a couple of weeks time, on the assumption that I would have been upgraded to Gold before then. Can't afford to wait weeks/months for a response to an email to the generic QFF email.

Surprised to receive a response from Accor Plus on the weekend.

Got the same exact message from the same person

Maybe they have perceived (AKA Advised of) a problem ...

I managed to earn Gold last year, only because of the double status credits offer from last year. Must admit though I havent noticed much difference, ie no real upgrade of rooms and some places dont offer drinks/have a bar or it was closed re covid etc. I did get a bottle of wine in one hotel room though! I applied, but as my current gold does not run out till end of year - Im just hoping and waiting to see if its extended at beginning of next year.

Kathleen assisted me with an problem at the beginning of the year when my Accor Plus courtesy of Amex didn't get renewed. I found her to be very helpful and was the first person who actually accepted ownership of my issue and followed through to have it fixed.

Seems Kathleen has been busy today - got the same email this evening advising a status upgrade by next Friday

I still have not received the upgrade (QF WP, with Accor Plus Silver status). based on above posts, looks like I should wait until Friday to see if my upgrade is processed.

I think there's an issue with Accor Plus Silver comped by AMEX Plat and this offer that requires their intervention.

I got the same email from Kathleen.

 

[MrJetset]

My Gold is now confirmed.

Thanks Kathleen!

 

[CaptainCurtis]

My Gold is now confirmed.

Thanks Kathleen!

Still Silver here.

 

[MEL_Traveller]

Surprisingly got another upgrade thanks to Accor / Qantas Gold bump up.

I saw some posts saying this will never happen in this thread, but I’m now 2 upgrades / 2 since the partnership kicked in.

Something for nothing always welcome.

I’ve generally had some sort of “upgrade” as Gold.

In the meantime, I’m still Gold to Dec 22.
