My profile is the same showing the 'Fast Track' but did not get the additional 10 nights after a two nights stay booked prior to registering the offer.

An interesting attempt to attract guests to Accor hotels. But as a Gold member based in Europe, I find it rather useless.
Trying to get 60 nights would be a waste of time and money in my situation. The Platinum benefits are just not worth it.
I would get:
* 2 SNUs -- apparently, they are difficult to use
* free breakfast in Asia-Pacific -- I'm quite sure I won't be able to return to that region in H1 of 2021; it might be even difficult in H2
* access to Executive Lounges -- there are only 14 lounges in Europe
* free soft drinks at MGallery hotels -- I don't think I've stayed at any MGallery hotels so far
The only reason to get the 10 nights would be if they could be rolled over to 2021. It would help me keep the Gold card in 2022.

Well, I completed a three night stay, booked after registering. The points have posted, but no bonus nights 
I just relooked at the T&Cs and notice it says
'Make their reservation via Flight Centre Centre Travel Group between August 1, 2020 and Dec, 31, 2020'
So maybe I won't have any luck if I escalate this to CS...

I still need 7 nights. The question is where I will be able to go to have any chance of getting those at the moment!

lol appeal against Accor? No chance 😁. I’ll just stay gold. Need 24 nights still. 14 would‘ve been do-able.
I tried looking at https://www.flightcentre.co.uk/ but what a sh*tty site. Can’t even book a single night hotel or anything.. no wonder they almost bankrupt.
