So, are Accor Shareholders supposed to re-apply again when they are back to Classic (or Silver Level)?

Or is Accor trying to say that they will only give Shareholders a 1-time Gold status for 1-year, and thereafter, you better sell your shares if your sole purpose was to get Gold Status?

If it is the latter, how are they going to check if you have received your 1-time status?
(Knowing how weak Accor's CS is, I wonder how are they going to cope with the checking if you were once a complimentary Gold via CDA)

Pls update if anyone is successful in their re-application to Gold if your status via CDA has expired.
