1 out of 3 bonuses from Budget shows for me, other 2 rentals show only 50 mile credit. Wife's account shows 0 out of 3 bonuses, and three 50 mile credits. Anyone have luck emailing Budget or Delta?

It looks like the 'tread'(really just a post, if you want to get technical) HAS been removed...(spell much, BTW?) Do you own a Dippin' Dots franchise, or what?? When I, for one, read a thread about say, a rental car deal, I don't want to have to read a bunch of posts about an ice cream contest; It has no correlation. Now between you and I combined we've upped our post counts and added 3 more irrelevant posts to this 'tread'....woo hoo for us. Now call down to your store and tell them to have a large chocolate Dippin Dots ready for me...I'm gonna swing by there.

I had to get a last minute flight and car rental. I am picking up the car on Friday and rental through Delta's site. Looks like I am lucky since Friday is the last day to pick up a rental and get a bonus. I will be sure to make sure they have my Frequent Flier #. I haven't tried to use Priceline to get a flight in a long time. But in this situation (very last minute) it saved me more than 50% over published fares. I ended up on Delta with very reasonable flight times. I went to Delta's website and added my FF# to my itinerary. Priceline says you can't get FF miles on their "name your own price" flights, but it is worth a try.

In all, I am paying $12 more on the two day car rental than the rate I found else where. $12 for 10,000 miles is great. Hopefully, it works out.

My Avis statement shows 10,099 bonus miles. I did not get the miles from Delta for flights since I booked through Priceline.com. But I am thankful the Priceline option is available. I was able to make to the service without having to drive 10 hours, attend the service, and then drive 10 hours back. My flights were good and the price was very reasonable, especially compared to published last minute fares. So if something comes up last minute, I recommend at least considering the prieline option if affordable flights aren't not available through other venues.

Edit: My 10099 miles posted today 8/10/08. Now if my credit card sign up miles would ever post I could finally book my trip to Alaska next year.

I've waited patiently for six weeks to pass (so naive, i know...) and called Delta, they transferred me to Avis. Avis told me that no AWD or skymiles are showing up on any of my reservations. I saw the thread earlier saying that Delta's website was not sending the skymiles number through. How can I get it all fixed up now? The Avis guy went ahead and added my skymiles number to all the reservations but would that help at this point?

Try contacting them. However, if they don't respond, be aggressive.

If you have a printout of the original promotion and proof that you participated, file a suit in small claims court. It will be the fastest resolution to your problem and you will most likely get a free ticket out of it.

Well, I called Avis today and they said that 10049 points have been posted to my account today and it might take as much as two weeks for them to show up in my skymiles account so sounds like this have been solved So if someone else encounters the same issue, just call Avis and have them add your skymiles to your reservation.
