They rang me and asked me if I am in charge of the business and if there are any other supervisors in charge of it. They also asked for my last name, and they said that this is just updated information.

I got the same as above. Called the number back and got the Accor message. Guy confirmed my name and then hung up. obviously when they call back to sell me something they'll get a very terse response. I have been a member many years ago but with these practices I wouldn't deal with them again. it's a dishonest way of doing business and may infringe on the spam act.

I told the guy who rang (said his name was john) i get this type of call regularly and to stop calling me. He rang back moments later (said he was tom). I told him i would report him to the police and i hung up. He rang straight back (when he heard my name ) and hung up. He rang back again. I said i was someone else. I let him have it. He said for me to listen to him. I said i was not interested. He made 4 calls in less than a few minutes. I run a small business and cannot afford to have me, my staff or my phones tied up with time wasters. No means no. How am i supposed to tell this guy to leave us alone.

ahh accor advantage plus isnt bogus. ive have been a member for many years and have received substantial discounts with no problems whatsoever. check your facts before you start claiming things are a scam.

I have just had a call from "John" as well, trying to get me to list the names of all the staff that work in my company. He said it was in case they wanted to send out any information or invitations. He was very persistant and after explaining to him 8 times that I would not being giving out staff members names, I said that if he wanted to send something he could address it to me (since he already had my name when I answered the phone). He still persisted in trying to get staff member's names so in the end I just said "thank you for your call, but I'm not interested" and hung up!

I am also a happy member. Excellent discounts on dining, car hire and theme parks have saved me hundreds $$ this year.

I answered a call from this number and they asked specifically for people within our organization.
They also rang numerous others whose numbers are not publicly available.
On callback their messagebank revealed them to be Accor Advantage Plus like everyone else.
