Club des Actionnaires Master Thread
#121
From other thread... thankyou for any helpful ideas..
Well i am actually keen with this idea.
I have access to opening a Hong Kong bank account on Monday morning I see they provide stock/share market services. But not sure about international markets. Assuming this is all good i will purchase 51 shares. And upon reciept from the bank of the purchase i can contact the member group? I should get the reciept by email the same day of the purchase.
I have 2 stays coming up (6nights total) in New Zealand from the 29th of October to the 5th using their 2/3 nights paid. So if i can get this all done by the time i check in on the Monday that would be great.
The only thing i care about the company is if its making a decent profit and continuely. I like the fact if they pay a dividend sometimes so i can claim its an investment still. And i think i noticed that they bought some properties in the UK recently so they seem to be reinvesting their profits (hopefully not borrowing lots of money to do it).

I had a strange experience today when checking in at the Novotel in Santiago Vitacura Chile. 2 weeks ago 2 became a CdA member (used to be gold). Reservation was made in a week ago so when I was CdA member.
At the desk they did not see my Platinum advantages, the assistant and the Manager had never seen an LeClub number beginning with 3081062 (my gold was 3081033) he said a plat number should begin with 3081034. I did not mention anything about CdA, I kept it simple by showing the digital card on the app that only shows platinum. In his computer it mentioned "Accor Preferred guest - AA" after my LeClub number.
After showing the manager my old gold card and my new Platinum digital card, I got the advantages (free drink at the bar and a soda in my room as VIP treatment).
Has anyone had this before? and what does your LeClub CdA number begin with?

It has been pointed out before that some people had trouble getting recognition with CdA because it shows a bit differently in their system, and not everyone seems to know about it. I'd just insist on the status and hope it sorts itself out once the issue is handled by someone who knows about CdA.

Thanks, good to know! I'm a little more impatient, so i wrote them an email again on tuesday, informing them kindly that I plan to stay in accor properties next week and that it would be rather great if they could hurry up... It worked it seems status changed 8 hours after I sent the email (so 3 working days in total).
Also, quick question for people who've reached Platinum the "normal" way: what's the last digit of your membership numbers? I noticed with status changes, the last digit changes; My membership number is a 2 now, is that normal plat or a special indicator of CdA?

Sorry, when you say status changed, how did you know? Did you sign up for a classic membership and email the finance department your membership number? I signed up via the online form and emailed them my proof of shareholding and have not received any form of confirmation from them.
No confirmation from them, i just kept checking the status online on my member page...
I was already a leclub member and emailed them my number together with the proof of share purchase.

I haven't a clue if my own card arrived yet since I'm on a longer trip and won't get to see my mail until I get back, but it's been no problem at all so far without the card! Just have your old membership card ready and maybe a printout of the new one (can be done online), or at least the new number.

Even though I wasn't asked, just a datapoint: A friend of mine applied as well, didn't get any email confirmation but his status changed within 3 working days and his card arrived within 2 weeks!

Mine changed from silver to plat, so I noticed that of course
You should at some point see that the expiry date for the status is gone (but not for the points, they still expire after 1 year of inactivity) and somewhere on the page it should say something like "Member Le Club des Actionnaires".
When did you apply for CdA?

Here's a new one: I checked into a Sofitel and got a computer-written welcome note, where it stated "[...] due to your LeClub Accorhotels Silver status[...]". I moved from silver to CdA.
At check-in they correctly identified me as a platinum member (and got an upgrade to a sort-of suite ^)
To those in the known: Was this a human error or is it (as i suspect) their computer system which gives them some wrong status information with CdA people? Just curious..
