Avios from Accor - 300% bonus
Has anyone tried to transfer LeClub points to Avios lately?
I just received an offer for 300% bonus until 15.12.2013. On Iberia's site it says transfer 3000 LeClub points get 7500 avios, which does not match 300% bonus though. And I've seen reports about points not posting to Iberia (e-rewards and Hilton), so unless someone reports he got points recently I wouldn't bother.

You should also be able to get triple avios for converting to the UK Avios shopping portal.

Saves the aggro of Iberia Plus, although you wouldn't pick up a partner for the 10 partner promo...

Haven't tested it myself, but since Accor makes it so difficult to automatically convert points to miles for each individual stay, I can't imagine that it wouldn't work for a normal conversion of whatever points you've built up.

YES I DID. I only got 4500 AVIOS for my 3000 Le Club points!!!! 
I am trying to contact IBERIA, but it is almost impossible to reach them! Forget the telephone, you can try the online form, but it is very complicated and you cannot attach documents!
Anyone els had experience with this promotion??

Accor advertised a promotion to convert at double points to Iberia back in September. After chasing Iberia and Accor both parties blamed each other. Out of three transactions Accor finally said it was due to one rate being a promotional rate - even though it wasn't and there was no mention of it being a promotional rate.
I would be very careful in trusting any deal promoted by Accor and Iberia as they do not want to even discuss the issue.

I also got 4500 Avios for 3000 Accor points. I hoped to get 22500 Avios. I wrote complaint to Iberia with copies with this promotion about month ago but still no reply. I am thinking to make official complaint to Spanish Consumer Protection Board to get that missing 18000 Avios or at-least to get 7500 Avios for 3000 Accor points.

Good luck with whatever protection board you think exists... All businesses in Spain should have official complaint forms for consumers to complain - every time I've filled one in I can only assume that they went into the bin (or into a bureaucratic mess, which is about the same thing in Spain) since I've heard nothing further.

I read the T&C and it is not 300% bonus, it is 3 times the usual amount, bad wording here. So it is 4500 avios for 3000 points. I got only 1500, but it was a transfer, not a stay, so won't bother chasing (or doing it again!)
