Accorhotels has had number of promotions for a complimentary Platinum status in their Le Club-program. These offers are targeted, but if you sign up using the right offer, you will get the complimentary Platinum status too.
EDIT: This is no longer available:
Change: “Accor Platinum Sign Ups By Request”-Gone For Now
I have now been able to preserve this offer for couple of months by making it by request only. If I post the direct sign up link here on LoyaltyLobby, the offer is most likely gone within 24 hours. This is what happened previously.
Please note that this offer is still available. If you think that you might need Platinum status in the next 12 months, it would be better to sign up now.
You can read about my Platinum experiences at Mercure Nadi in Fiji, Novotel Suva Lami Bay in Fiji, and Hotel Muse in Bangkok. I recently stayed at the Pullman hotel in Bali and have uploaded the review video on YouTube.
Last time, after I had the offer up here on LoyaltyLobby.com, it was all over the internet in couple of hours and the sign up offer was disable in less than a day. This time I am trying to preserve this offer longer for LoyaltyLobby readers.
Here’s what you need to do get the sign up link:
1. Sign up for the blog email updates and just reply to the welcome email that you would like to get the Accor Platinum sign up offer.
or
2. Follow us on Twitter and send me a tweet requesting the sign up link. I will follow you back and send you the sign up link using direct message.
or
3. Like us on Facebook and send me a private message for the link.
Please note that I am sending the links manually. You may get it almost instantaneously or it may take up to 12 to 14 hours.
If you have an old A-Club account, you need to make a decision whether opening a new account is worthwhile for you. Please note that you cannot use an existing email address that is on file with A-Club for signing up a new account. What you should do is to open a new account using the sign up link, have a few stays, and then contact the customer service to merge the accounts.
