Let's keep the discussion somewhat reasonable. I'm not sure such sweeping generalisations are helpful. @:-)

On the question of the data breach Accor (or to be precise one of their subsidiaries) is just one of the latest travel companies being caught out by their lax handling of sensitive data. I've been through this with Hilton and Starwood. Hilton in particular was a nightmare for me. What they all have in common is the slow response in alerting customers and regulators.

I would hope Accor would come here (and directly to members) and clarify how this data breach affects customers (or not).
