Gone Gone Gone

I did ask National and they indicated that all I need is my driver's license and a credit card. On some other forum I had read that if you can't show affiliation, they will not honor their price. I was wondering if someone has actual exprience with such a situation.

Moreover I know for a fact that if you use a contract id which includes LDW and any other insurance, and if you get in an accident, you will NOT be covered by the policy unless you actually belong to that organization AND are on offical business. For anyone who decides to use the codes only for insurance, it is not worth it.

I used the under 25 code (5000491) and got a pretty nice deal.

If they give me crap about not having the physical coupon when I go pick up the car, what should I tell them? Should I say I got something in the mail and threw it out after using the code, or that a friend gave me the code?

The name will show up on the reservation printout. I think the one you mentioned is Ohio State.

Looks liek the double class upgrade coupons only allow you to go to a full size car. Choosing a compact upgrades me to a full size (double) and choosing an intermediate only goes to a full instad of a premium.

Printable 2 car upgrade coupon

In my experience it is up to the manager of the local yard. I was allowed to upgrade to a premium at San Jose on numerous occasions. I usually got in late at night and they had caddys on the lot, so I asked.

I have called the local yard in advance and asked about upgrading to a premium. Worked in Seattle, RDU, Charlotte, etc.

So ask locally if you can and then you are sure.

this is the American Express coupon 10009493. this coupon is limited to 2 car upgrade from intermediate cars.

Brings up a blank page for me on both Firefox and IE.

After reading the posts on here, I decided that since I used the affiliation code and the coupon codes that I should probably call National and check. The first time I was told that I needed to have the coupon and the second time I was told that I only needed my driver's license and credit card. I thought that maybe I should check directly with the airport location and the woman there just gave me "bring it to be safe". It seems to be that this is only answered by the mood of the National employee. It seems that they don't have any rule set but then again, that is subject to change with mood.

Thanks to all. Was able to get a full size for four days during Thanksgiving for $90 total. Awesome!

Just go to www.americanexpressofferzone.com and click on the travel discount area and then the car rental area. It will be on the first page.

Used 10009262 for a weekly rental at the Oakland Airport. Got a great deal of $146.96 all inclusive on a fullsize car...got the Pontiac Grand Prix (+$3 to use Skymiles # - quite ridiculous). Anyways I must advise everyone to keep the coupon handy. They did ask me to get the coupon by the time I return the car. Luckily there was this lady at the other counter who had an extra coupon with her and let me use it.

In addition I would like to advise everyone that you can play with the deals online and find the best one, then call NAtional and book your car for the same deal without giving your credit card info. This way you are not commited to rent the car and you still have a car booked for you at a great rate.

Anyways thanks for the great deal!

op. i'm sure you didn't just make this number up. where did you get it?

For the AMEX coupon, do I have to to use contract id 5066944? or I can use those with bigger discounts such as 5760339? Request Coupon ID 10009493 and Contract ID 5066944

Does anyone have this printable coupon (10009262 - double class upgrade)? It goes with Contract ID 66003300 (priceless vactions). If you have a link, please post it or PM me. Thanks!

I am also looking for where this coupon came from. (Coupon ID number 10009262 )
I received the AMEX one but won't be using it..Planning on using the Disney visa card this trip.

Can anyone help??
Thanks

Dumb question, where do you input the contract ID's and coupon ID's on the Enterprise website. I tried using 5760339, the Carlson travel one, in the optional space for "Coporate account or Customer number" but it doesn't seem to work. Any help would be appreciated.

this thread is about National not Enterprise.

I rent exclusively with National over 10 years and never had a problem. Always call the local National and confirm plus ask what you must present to rent the car.

did you use ID: 6600431 and coupon 10009453? have you gone yet? any problems?

and they don't ask about the contract code? it doesn't matter if you are not an employee?

wow i just reserved a car with ID: 6600431 and coupon 10009453

it took $37.17 off so my total is $44.25 now. thanks!!!
