Is it possible to use points from different accounts?
Hello,
My partner and I will be traveling around Europe for a bit more than 15 days this August, mostly in Accor's properties. I should have these nights credited to my own LCAH account in order to renew my Gold status this year. It is my intention to pay part of the bills with points (on a side question, I understand these night will be credited as Eligible Nights to my account as per actual TC, right?).
My question is: if on a paid at the hotel fare, would we be able to use points from my account and also from his LCAH account?
Any clue appreciated!

I don't have the answer to that, and I'd be careful.
What you can do to be safe is to book part of the night's in yours, part in his name and then redeem the points.

I have the same, or let's say similar problem. In our family we have 5 LCAH accounts with points. I'm the only one who could use the points for stays.
Is there any possibility to transfer points? I read something that points can be transfered to vouchers chich are transferable?

That's how it used to be. You could just print out vouchers and pass them to anyone you wanted to.
That has now gone and you can redeem while booking or while checking out directly through the system.

Anyway, the member must provide a code received by SMS to complete the operation with the points.

When you determine the amount of points you want to use, the receptionist puts that information on the system. Then you receive a SMS in the mobile you have registered in your account with a four digit code. You tell to the receptionist that code and only then the points will be redimed from your LCAH account.

Do hotels allow me to use the points of someone else if I have the 4 digit code? Does anyone know how the T&C are and how it's handled in reality?

Points
Hi,
Thanks for your question. Unfortunately, it's not possible to make the bill with points with two different cards booking the same room.
Otherwise, if two members share the same room, it's possible the one person makes the BWP and other use its points directly at the hotel for the extras.
Best regards,
Amy
