    I assume you can't give your personal QFF number?

    • Trinion1 on 17/09/2024 - 10:05

      When signing up for the Accor Plus Business Explorer membership it only asked for the ABN. I assume it will credit the Qantas Business Rewards account with the same ABN, and once the points land you can transfer the points to a personal QFF account.

  • knobbs on 17/09/2024 - 09:59

    $279 (Usually $399) but with an ABN (free currently until end of October

    Link still says $279 for me, how do we get it for free?

    • Trinion1 on 17/09/2024 - 10:01

      The Accor Plus membership is $279 with an ABN. You need a Qantas Business Rewards membership (which requires an ABN as well) to receive the 10k Qantas Points. The Qantas Business Rewards membership usually costs $89 but is often free with promotions like now. I will update my deal to make it clear - apologies

  • karma25 on 17/09/2024 - 10:14

    Are there any blackout dates for free night? Looking to book one night in Singapore in November, might sign up and use this offer to get 10K Qantas points.

      I wasn't able to redeem StayPlus night at any of the decent Singaporen hotels, YMMV

    Ouch. I bought the same deal a few days ago for $399.

    • Chris17 on 17/09/2024 - 12:11

      Ditto. The pain is real.

    • donman92 on 17/09/2024 - 13:16

      Lucky I was on the side-lines about getting that deal. I'm going to assume $279 is a decent enough deal.

      • Chris17 on 17/09/2024 - 13:35
        +1

        It a decent deal. We’re at the Sofitel Melbourne with our free night, and the red-hot room deals can be good.

        • donman92 on 17/09/2024 - 13:39

          Didn't think of using the free night in AU that's a decent idea. Plus I'm hunting for my last 20k QFF points needed by late Oct - heck why not 👍

        • ComfortablyNumb on 18/09/2024 - 18:12

          Awesome deal, how / when do you get the red-hot room deals? Keep a lookout?

  • kkwhong on 17/09/2024 - 11:28

    "Access to Members’ Rate at 10% off the best available room rate"

    Does anyone know if the the above discount is on top of the advertised member rate when booking online?

    • Trinion1 on 17/09/2024 - 11:36
      +1

      I just had a look - put in a random hotel (Mercure GC Resort - 15 Oct-16 Oct)
      Public rate $174
      Member rate $165
      Accor Plus rate $156
      All "Saver Rate"

      So not quite 10% on top of the member rate discount but still additional savings

      • b0b0 on 18/09/2024 - 21:25

        Also, I find booking.com genius discount can be cheaper than Accor Plus rate.

        YMMV.

        I am still a big fan of Accor plus though, have 4 accounts at the moment, thinking to sign up another one (this deal) 🤣

        • paam on 25/09/2024 - 16:28

          why do you need many accounts? Do I miss something?

          • b0b0 on 25/09/2024 - 19:57

            @paam: Not really. Been using my past 4 accounts to stay at Sofitel sydney for 4 nights.

            Next 2 accounts for 2 nights in Sofitel adelaide lol.

            For dining discount, each accounts can give 50% for 2 pax. 4 accounts is 50% off for 8 pax. I only really need max for 8 pax really 🤣

  • Syzzygy on 17/09/2024 - 14:23

    Anyone aware of potential issues with a Sole Trader (with ABN), signing up to this?

    • Chris17 on 17/09/2024 - 17:11
      +1

      I got an ABN instantly online as a sole trader. No issue with Accor.

  • Gaz1 on 17/09/2024 - 15:34

    I wonder how/if they check if you are a "New Accor Plus member"?
    Is it just email address?

  • ThePointsGuru on 18/09/2024 - 14:39
    +3

    This also includes Breakfast for two (value AUD 80) when you purchase a Business Explorer membership

    • Limegreen on 22/09/2024 - 15:18

      can this only be redeemed when you book a stay?

  • ComfortablyNumb on 18/09/2024 - 18:18
    +3

    This is a terrific deal
    10k Qantas points ($100 equiv)
    1 Free night and Breakfast for 2 for $279 ($179 if you take into account qantas points) at great hotels + access to all the deals, late checkouts, only 10 more nights needed to get to gold.

    I'm always on the fence trying to find good hotels for my family during school hols etc, there are good deals I can see already (eg Sebel , three nights for $750 for 2 bedroom, 1 king + 2 doubles hotel in December school hols is crazy!) - 3 nights 15% off + earn more with heymax 4.5 points per dollar + transfer to ALL 3000 points) … then to Singapore airlines for another extra 50% on the points).

    Great deal, thanks op!

      i'm 1 night away from diamond (60 nights) and thinking of booking a $60 to get myself over. this is from only 9 nights with the accor plus bonus, some accelerator bonus which I can't even remember how I got with Qantas FF.

      once you hit diamond the benefit is more tangible (free breakfast in asia pacific, upgraded room, 2x suite upgrades)

      worth noting personal memberships with accor plus also 30% off currently if you don't have an ABN

  • boq on 18/09/2024 - 21:41

    What is the best hotel in Melbourne to redeem the free night?

    • ThePointsGuru on 18/09/2024 - 22:45

      probably Sofitel

      • May4th on 19/09/2024 - 09:09

  • kkwhong on 19/09/2024 - 08:52

    How long does it take for the Qantas points to be credited?

    I signed up, but no sign of it yet.

    • Trinion1 on 25/09/2024 - 21:27

      I haven’t seen the points in my account yet either :(

    • firestint on 28/09/2024 - 10:09

      After paying, there's a note mentioning that points will be credited within 30 days

  • MaxHashrate on 20/09/2024 - 12:33

    quite worth it for singapore hotels…

    Can see there is like fairmont, swissotel, sofitel… they are like over $500+ a night

    • dahax77 on 20/09/2024 - 12:36

      only if they are available though.

  • kvince on 21/09/2024 - 08:51

    I signed up but there's no mention of the business explorer in my account. It looks like it just renewed my old Accor account. Also, where do we see the breakfast voucher?

    • Trinion1 on 21/09/2024 - 12:47
      +1

      Hey mate I am not sure about the business explorer not showing up part - it does say in the eligibility criteria that the offer is for new Accor plus members.
      To see the breakfast vouchers you need to log in to the Accor Plus site and click on the top right person icon, click on Profile, and on the page there should be a “Vouchers” button - the breakfast vouchers should show up in there.

      • kvince on 21/09/2024 - 13:02
        +1

        Don't see the voucher on my profile. As my Accor plus had expired for months now I thought it meant it wasn't available if already subscribed. Looks it just renewed my Accor plus without the breakfast and Qantas points without warning. Hindsight should've provided a new email address.

        • kvince on 23/09/2024 - 11:02
          +1

          The breakfast vouchers appeared on my account now. Hopefully will receive the Qantas points as well.

      • boq on 30/09/2024 - 07:02

        I can't see Profile from the menu. Does it take days to show up? Tried on the app too and still nowhere to be found. Signed up on the 25th but still waiting for the vouchers.

        • zdb97 on 30/09/2024 - 13:11

          Go to your Accor Plus profile page: https://www.accorplus.com/au/profile/, if you can see a 'VOUCHER' button down the bottom right corner of the 'MEMBERSHIP' section, it's there.

  • boq on 21/09/2024 - 19:17

    Is the grand final weekend included in the blocked dates?

    • dahax77 on 23/09/2024 - 08:36

      you can pretty much guarantee it would be.

  • TightAl on 22/09/2024 - 13:06

    How soon can you search for the free night?
    I can't find anything and i've searched many dates far in the future and cities with no luck..

  • kiwies555 on 23/09/2024 - 10:55

    Hi, I had personal accour plus memebership previously, is that means I need to use different email to join this business memebership? Or I can use my main email as new memeber?

    • kvince on 23/09/2024 - 22:58

      You need to use another email. The welcome email I received was renewal and had no mention of business rewards even though I signed up through the business link and put in ABN. The Mrs signed up with a new email and received a different welcome letter noting 10k points.

      • kiwies555 on 23/09/2024 - 23:06

        Thats good to know thank you for your information.

  • boq on 25/09/2024 - 21:32

    signed up now and just waiting for the breakfast voucher to show up. Am i able to book for a friend (and claim the stay credit)? I did this before with Qantas Hotels and they had issues checking in.

  • MayAllBeHappy on 26/09/2024 - 14:58

    Can i book the free night on someone else's name and use the breakfast vouchers as well?

  • boq on 04/10/2024 - 07:36

      I got mine about 2-3 days ago. Signed up on the day I posted the deal so about 2 weeks
