There's not much you can or should do about it unless it's actually cost you money, though. That might happen if this kind of correction caused a guest to miss a deadline for claiming expenses, or made it necessary to submit a revised tax return, or caused an account linked to a debit card to go into the red. In that case I'd certainly ask Accor to cover the consequences of their accounting error.
