Yes. If you use all 6 codes in the OP you will get 6 credits for $25

thanks, I know I now have $150 in credits. what I was wondering is if I can use it together to rent 2 complete days or is it only good for $25 per each of 6 reservations?

Awesome thread. Thanks!

You should be able to use it together to rent 2 complete days but dont take chances doing this on the credit expiration date.
For ex. If all your credit expires on Dec 21. Ensure you complete your reservation by Dec 20 to be on the safer side. Just my suggestion.

I just checked up on my old thread and was surprised to see so many new codes! Awesome find guys! I'm at $150 in driving credit too, extended from $25.


alert mods    

they stack, you can use them all for 1 reservation, and if you have ezpass, it covers tolls too.
they work just like friend referral credits.

The credits definitely stack...and I used $26ish of one today, so will see how the billing goes and report back.

GOOD NEWS!!!

I zipped for 3 hours this evening and I had some $50 credit that is expiring on 2015 and then 5, $25 December credit (used the codes in OP) and now I see the zipcar has used my december credit which is exactly what we all would like to see!!
So basically it is using the credit that is expiring first.

>>>>
Hours: 2pm to 5pm 3 hours $10.25 $30.75
Total Charges $30.75
Paid with credit: December driving $-25.00
Paid with credit: December driving $-5.75
Total Credits $-30.75

total billed: $0.00
>>>>>

One thing I wanted to mention is that I did not have to call customer service for anything so basically everything must have happened systematically. I am not sure what would have been the CSR's reaction if I had to call them for some reason and the CSR noticed my 5 december credits. This is something that we all have to keep in mind. So, the bottomline is if you are not calling zipcar for any reason things are looking good.

BTW, I am yet to use DriveNowPDX..I am holding off using this until next weekend so I can have $25 credit during the christmas week (assuming this code still works next week!)

Awesome news beatmesweety! Thanks for the update.

Have fun (safely) zipping/driving everybody!

It looks like driving has to be completed by the expiration date. The fine print that noANANDforme pasted from the email says:

ZipCar Email said:But you gotta hurry. This driving credit will expire December 17, 2008
at 11:59pm. The credit must be used before then and does not count for reservations made after that date and time.

(He received his email on Dec 3rd, so 15 days from then would be Dec 18th, but I guess ZipCar's computer system can only make expiration dates relative to the time entered, instead of absolutely on a certain date?

You can read "reservations made after that date" either way-- does anyone know for sure whether you have to *make* the reservations by that date, or make the reservations *for* a time prior to that date?

You're right, and we can't know for sure without asking ZipCar, but...
First rule of Fatwallet: DON'T CALL

Seeing that ZipCar doesn't calculate the charges and bill you until after the reservation is over, if the promo credit has expired by then, even if you made the reservation before that, there's no way for the promo credit to be applied.

Unless you're a gambler, I would recommend that you make and complete your reservation before the promo credit expires.

Very nice. No rental car tax (on portions covered by credits) either; or, more precisely, -$0.01!

I'm a new Zipcar user. Where exactly on the Zipcar site do we enter these codes to get the credits? Thanks

All my credits were removed! I checked this morning after making some reservations for next weekend...

Seems that they might be catching on as mine were removed also. Interestingly enough, the codes do not seem to be disabled. Ran a trial and the system accepted the code and added $25 credit to my account. Not holding my breath on that one remaining though...


alert mods    

I got this email after contacting Zipcar about my missing credit.

The coupon codes you used on your account are directed towards specific members in certain markets. If you are not one of these members the driving credit cannot be activated. If you can please forward me the email you received with this offer I would be happy to add the $25 credit

Same here... all $150 removed... but they didn't send me an email to explain.

They did email me with my own $25 credit, though. DriveNowSF####, but now that I think about it, I'm worried that the #### is member/user-specific. Can anybody else that got the SF code PM me to check?


alert mods    

My credits are gone, too, without notice. I had been looking forward to taking a small trip on their dime.


alert mods    

As of yesterday, only one or two sites copied the codes from the OP, but as of this morning a lot more had them... Somebody probably called ZipCar. ::sigh::
