"4. Stays that are paid for partially or fully with Rewards points or with one or more Le Club AccorHotels Rewards vouchers will not be eligible to benefit from this offer, nor will they count towards offers requiring multiple stays to earn points."
It's unfortunate, but it is there in the T&Cs. There's so many "gotchas" with these kind of promotions.

yeah, I didn’t read the t&c carefully as I was rushing book that stays last minute as I was traveling.
Anyway, I was told my third booking is not eligible as it booked just past midnight SG time, although the hotel is in Jakarta
Also if the point booking is not eligible for this promotion, why the option of that rate is avail? I booked by clicking the book now from promotion.
I thought Accor is very good in excluding certain rate

Quick question. I left it right to the last minute to take advantage of this offer. According to the offer, the stays needed to be booked by 7th October. I am in the UK (one hour behind French Time) - so when I finalised my bookings (at around 11.15pm in UK), in theory it was 8th October in France. Do you think I'll have any issues?
Cheers.

And this make a lot of sense, because Accor assign fixed cash value to any point ( 2 c ).
And make not all rate available to book with points.
Making actual value of the points 30-50 % less then 1 c.
If you are forced to book more expensive rate if you use your points this decrease their value.
Take for example the last Black Friday sale where the rates you can book with points was 30-40% more expensive then the one available only with cash.
They have to allow points to be used to any rate or give the points from promotion if you pay with points.

This was not always the case , in the past you get the points from promotion if you pay with points.
