Hi

Not quite sure how this works... from what OP says he currently has Plat status but for this year hasn't met the criteria (11,007 status 46 nights) and should lose Plat status by 31/12/25. Yet when the Accor Plus changes kicked in on 01 Oct 25 he was renewed without meeting the criteria, till 31/12/26.

I read another post about how the old Accor Plus assessment method for Status was at the point of Plus subscription renewal, and it would use either the previous year or the current year's points and nights to decide on status. But that the new T&C starting 01 Oct 25 in clause 2.9 has standardised the assessment method to the start of the new year, to be in line with the ALL programme.

So... was there a glitch or was there one final status assessment based on the old T&C, done on 01 Oct 25?

My friend is in the same situation, Plat since last year, has 12,000+ points and 30+ nights, and also has a Plus subscription. She was planning to work to 14,000 points by year-end but now has been renewed to 2026, and her app shows her new target is to achieve Diamond. She's not pleased because it seems to mean that she won't be getting the 2 Suite Night Upgrades which she would have gotten if she had renewed Plat the normal way. And she's already put in the effort to almost hit 14,000 status points...

For those who have renewed Plat more than once, do the Suite upgrade certs come in the moment you reach the criteria for renewal, or on 01 Jan of the following year?

Thanks in advance, don't know much about the ALL programme
