  OK tried a couple of different ways (all on Firefox on desktop). First way – already signed into Accor website, clicked through and filled out company name/mobile – this didn’t work and gave the unspecified error.

  Second way DID work though – log out of Accor website, visit offer address above, then click through, enter Accor email/password – this will log you in and still ask for business name/mobile number, but interestingly the opt-in marketing info at the bottom will only now have one tick box (for meeting planner emails), whereas as previously it had two. Click to register, worked fine, will see if/when points post! If it works then very easy EUR20!

    Now received confirmation email – “We are pleased to confirm your membership of Le Club Accorhotels Meeting Planner offer with your card no xxx. Ths membership is valid for two years and will need to be renewed before…” also updated postal address on a/c adding company name.

    No points yet, hopefully they’ll update overnight.

        & the wife! Chrome & Edge, don’t think it matters if you follow Alan’s cunning trick

        You can now enjoy the Meeting Planner offer!

      As per terms and conditions the points will not post until after 15 December.

        This is most likely to bar the 1100 quiz points to redeem which will be expired before 15th Dec 16!

          Already sitting in my Avios pile, didn’t you transfer out of Accor?

        • Ray says:

          I followed below in last Dec but cannot transfer out, any tricky can advise?
          I did use Chrome and IE although I can receive the auto convert requests confimation but the point were not transfer out, did anyone can transfer out recently and share ? thanks!

          I’m a little confused. Do the points from quiz expire by 15th dec even if I had a stay recently or do they expire 1 year after the last “stay related” points activity like all other points? thanks

        Its not clear whether the points you get by organising meetings will post in December or the 1000 earned from signing up… who knows with accor IT its always a suprise

    Yep, that little trick works perfectly. Thanks Alan!

  Doesn’t work for me either on Chrome or Edge on Windows 10 PC.

  Not sure an iphone will be any better. Might be time to dust off the iPad and Safari… 🙁

    … However I had been making the same “mistake” as Alan – i.e. logging in before clicking the link!

    Following his cunning trick all appears good now. Good work, sir!

      Excellent, classic Accor crappy IT!

  Confirmed, it’s works by not being logged in first.

  No problems here and I got the welcome email almost instantly.

  Registered on iPad. Entered email address and password and then logged in. Job done. Wife and I now registered as the meeting planners for our limited company.

  Once the whole world jumps on this, they’ll void the points and some peoples accounts also… Just like last time…!

  • harry says:

    18 Jun18 June 09:31

    They didn’t actually do that. They targeted Chinese a/cs and a few of us (not me!) got caught in the crossfire. Get in early before the yellow peril 🙂 (no offence intended)
