January 21 Update: Double Accor ALL Rewards points for stays in Canada, the U.S., Mexico and Panama, Rewards Canada Podcast now on YouTube & Budget extends Fastbreak status?!?

 Here's your Rewards Canada Daily update! Your daily dose (or near daily dose) of loyalty program, credit card and travel news, bonuses, deals and more. This update is brought to you by the HSBC +Rewards Mastercard which is currently offering a welcome bonus of up to 30,000 bonus points, no annual fee in the first year and a low 11.9% interest rate! 

On January 11th we provided details on the next iteration of Fairmont's Stay Close offer where you can get your second night free on stays at select Fairmont Hotels and in that post we also gave details on how you could earn Triple ALL Rewards points on those stays if you booked by Janaury 15. Now we can tell if you missed the triple points you can stil get a bonus as ALL Accor Live Limitless launched a new bonus today offering Double ALL Rewards Points on all stays that are booked by March 31 for completion by June 30. Sure Double Points doesn't match the Triple we had before but it's better than no bonus at all! What you need to do is simply register for the offer here first and then book your Fairmont Stay Close stay here. If you already have a stay booked simply register and you'll be all set.

You can now find the Rewards Canada podcast on our YouTube channel! We added the last two episodes this week to the channel and will have every episode going forward added as well. While famous for videos the amount of people that use YouTube as a source to listen to music and podcasts is growing exponentially and we wanted to give our readers, well listeners, the option to listen to our podcasts via this method. This way if you don't use Apple Podcasts, Spotify etc. you can go to YouTube to listen. Be sure to subscribe to the channel and turn on notifications to be alerted to any new content added to the Rewards Canada YouTube channel and hit the like button as much as you can!

This was an interesting email I received today - Budget Rent a Car sent out a notice that they are extending my Fastbreak status another year regardless of 2020 rental activity. What is confusing to me is Fastbreak is free to join and doesn't have any requirements to achieve other than signing up for it - so how can they be extending the status when there isn't status? I don't know maybe I missed something here. Let me know if I did and am not understanding this completely.
