Waiting to see what the fallout is with Accor plus because they are flat denying what properties have told me. I’ve already got Hilton Diamond but I think given the recent changes to IHG, I’ll make IHG my backup program going forward as they have a worldwide consistent experience now on par with Hilton.

im pretty disgusted with Accors transparency as of recent and the fact that I have resort to credit card disputes to enforce their program rules because their support is absolutely garbage.
Yikes - this is really harming the Accor brand, not sure this is what Gary Rosen had in mind... I really hope Accor doesn't become like WeWork, where WeWork Greater China is effectively a completely diferent and separate program from the rest of WeWork, where they don't interact with each other.

What are the credit card disputes you needed to do?
