My package just came. Box slightly damaged but food largely intact apart from the jars being a bit chipped.
The note was addressed to a Maximillian. Don’t suppose that’s you?!

LCAH renewal pack - just received
I did 91 nights & only managed 10.5k points
I find it easier to renew or retain my status on nights stayed vs. status points.
Why do u think there's a reduction in Platinum members?
What's it about & how did you join?
What "benefits" are u expecting from Accor in the coming years?
Perhaps u can contact Accor to ask for a replacement? It was a nice thought to send a gift though.

Well one can hope and really will have to hope that service improves and feedback in really taken into consideration. Benefits wise, would love to see partnerships with credit card companies to rack up points and better recognition of statues for upgrades, lounge access and for example, free breakfast for Platinum's.

I realised upon inspecting the contents of the package more closely that actually some of the jars looked like they had been opened (the seal had been broken on one and other had scratched labels, dented metal lids etc). I've e-mail Isabelle too as I feel they should be pursuing this with the company that packed them and also DHL.

I've not been denied room upgrades (quite often to the suites) at any Novotel, Sofitel or Pullman hotels unless the hotel is fully booked, which is pretty rare.

Free breakfast only happens when
- There is a lounge
- And you get lounge access as Platinium (not always true, the case of the Sofitel Berlin comes to mind).
In any other cases you do not have free breakfast as a Plat. I would also add that even when I do have lounge access, I prefer to eat at the restaurant as usually the choice is larger.
You are asia based so you might have a partial vision if you travel in this region mainly. In Europe you sometimes get upgrades refused or not granted under false pretenses. Lounges are uncommon.

Ok this thread is going off topic and I think we have exhausted the "package" question.
