Accor points extension

[simplegarv]

Hi all, I have a decent chunk of accor points that will expire at end of August. We do not have any travel plans for next one year and thus looking for ways to extend the validity.

I remember reading on this forum that paying for a meal at their hotels credits some points and thus leads to 1 year extension. I ate a crappy meal at Novotel, Bangalore and paid through points - their staff also said I am eligible for some reward points. But it's been one week and no points have been credited. I took the waiter's number just in case and even he + his manager seem clueless.

I just raised a complaint on accor portal, need to see if it works out.

Has anyone successfully extended validity by having a meal? If this doesn't work for me, will booking a hotel room and staying for a day work for sure?

If you have some points left to transfer, kindly transfer them to accor. You will get the points in July only and your validity will be moved towards July 2025.

P.S: Kindly mark it as solution!

Since you don't have any cards to transfer points to Accur, and since your wife's name is different you cannot transfer her Accor points to your account.

So just give Rs 1 to charity and your membership will automatically extend for one year.
kindly mark this as the solution

Can you share link of where it allows Rs 1 donation? I can see a minimum 500 points donation.
