Points expiring
I have about 3,000 Accor points expiring at the end of this month (June). I know I cannot transfer them to any airline because the minimum points required are 4,000! I do not have any plan to stay at any accor hotel before end of June. Please suggest ways I may be able to use or keep the points without them expiring. One way I read on Le Club would be to convert 2,000 points into a €40 hotel voucher to be used later. This would leave around 1,000 points which will be lost?

Thanks AaronD23, for the link.
However, the process in that link no longer works. A lot of people have commented on this. It stopped working about 8 months ago. I did activate the auto conversion, but my points were not transferred at all. When I tried it again just then, it said the minimum points required would be 4,000 (and I have just around 3,000 points). So, I think my only option now is to convert 2,000 points into €40 hotel voucher to be used within 6 months, and just forgo the balance 1,000 points.
