  Has anyone been able to book rooms @ Thistle etc. using above offer for a family (2A + 2Ch)?
  I tried couple of times seeing this 25% off offer on GLH website last week. But it gives an error stating to call hotel 0871 number to reserve room.
  If I drop to 2A + 1Ch then it lets me book. I suppose they want to know the age of children to comply with room size and any fire safety/evacuation rules/laws.

  Note also there is a Thistle hotel on Poole, if anyone wants to venture out of London.

    The Thistle in Poole is not included in the Amex offer, though.

    Also, it seems that loyalty club members get free breakfast on any rate, not just for this offer.

  I’ve often had that.

  I’ve had a confirmed Accor payment sitting in my account since August. It does seem slower than normal.

    One of mine is Accor too.
    Thanks – just wanted to know that it was relatively normal.

      I think it might be fairly random, I had a stay from the Pullman in Cologne switch from confirmed to payable a couple of days after the stay.

        I disagree had a Gift card payout take a month recently to process.

        They seemed to think the answer was to tell me it will be sorted soon every few days and refuse to reverse the payout. Instead they were blaming the fact they had paid a gift card provider already, like that was my problem, my contract is with them not their Gift Card provider! As soon as I reminded them of this it seemed to be sorted quickly rather than just wait a bit longer excuses

  OT but there are no longer any Tesco Clubcard points on gift card spend. They don’t count towards qualifying spend. Typical as my locals tesco just got a load of Amazon vouchers in.

    Promo finished Sunday, lets hope something turns up around xmas

  This often happens with Amex deals due to incorrect coding of hotels in their system. Customer services will add it on without a problem.

  Oh great … I guess that means flight to Oslo are not included.

  OT- Can I transfer HR points to my wife? If so can I do it online?

  • Rob says:

    Yes, see the T&C’s. Need to call though.

      You can also do this by email.

      Have done so on several occasions.

  I have several small transactions confirmed and are long past their estimated times for paying out although had a couple go to payable today. SIgned up for the Tesco card the other day and £66 tracked correctly by the next morning! Wonder how long that will take to payout!

    I did a tesco zero fee balance transfer card to avoid settling a £6k balance, I pay off the minimum whilst saving £250/month at 5% to settle it down the line. £31.50 TCH was paid under 2 months from begining to end.
