  I don’t think this works, just changes the minimum points before transfer to 2,000.

    It does work, Tony only had 800 points

    It certainly worked for me when I did it in December…and I only had 131 LeClub points in the account at the time!

  Try different browsers.

  I did it last year with 500 points to Avois & it worked fine, have to try it again.

  Looks like my 2 Ibis budget rooms last month at Tunnel sous la Manche didn’t earn me any points 😉

    Ibis hotels in France midweek were excluded from points earning but I thought this changed with the July scheme changes?

      Ibis Budget are always excluded, as are F1

        You can’t have everything, I think they were just EUR40 each 😉

  As somebody above has pointed out, you get better value for your points using them for Accor bookings. And since Accor points just take money off your room price, with no issues of reward availability, I would say that for most people who actually stay in Accor hotels, it’s the way to go. It seems that you can use your points to pay for all rates, including the Happy Mondays rate discussed on this website and elsewhere.

    Good point, but work pays for my Accor stays. I COULD use them on the next work stay, saving the company money. But not half as much fun. (The company is mine btw and work hotel stays are happily tax deductible). Thanks again Rob for yet another hot tip, got a project for lunchtime now.

  I think that for some people there may be an initial step before attempting Raffles’ method.

  If you already have ‘auto-convert’ set up on your Le Club account you will need to disable this first and then try the Air Berlin method to turn it back on for any points balance.

    Agree: When I tried there was some little popup window appeared, saying something like ‘you must turn off points autochannelling before registering” – not exactly, can’t quite remember but something like it in poor english.

    Sounds sensible!

  Right at the very bottom of the link there is a drop down box for selecting a language, which is unfortunately set to Russian/Greek (?). You can use this to change the language to English. Still haven’t been able to convert the points yet though!
