Why is the Buy Now so much more! Strange!
Just a thought, are the inclusions trhe same in each qute? I mean the various surcharges e.g. airport, insurance, theft protection, unlimited mileage?
If so, it's a no-brainer! And I find the BA rate is always, always, always more expensive - got to pay for those miles bonuses somehow - 2,250 for a Gold last time, I'm usually happier paying a lower rate and getting 1,000 Virgin miles.

The Way To Go!!!!! D752500
Great Code in US and Also tried in Itally, Germany and Austria over 35% savings and I have always gotten an upgrade with it - D752500. I have not been asked for ID. It is a corp D752500
I have contacted Avis and provided them with the underage fee waiver code above, and they did confirm that code lowers the age to 18. Is this legal to use? The lady said it was a corporate code. I do not want to have any problems if someone crashes into my rental or anything. What do you guys think?

If Avis claimed you fraudulently used a discount code that you were not entitled to (which I have never heard of them doing), then they could charge you the full rate for the rental (which you would have paid anyway if you had not used the discount code) so it's no big deal.
But if you had a crash while using the under age rental AWD, and they ruled that you weren't entitled to use that code, they could charge you for the damage done and this could be substantial.
Also remember that there may be an agreement between Avis and the company which owns the AWD code such that the comany underwrites the extra insurance risk for their own employees and would foot a certain amount of the bill if one of their under 25s crashed a car.
And you can bet your bottom dollar that they will investigate any crash where an 18 year old totals one of their vehicles.
I just want to thank everybody who posts codes for general use. Last May and June I used the ASAP code for a 9 day rental in France and got a great rate (about $305 for a nice little Opel including two additional drivers). After I entered the code on the reservation site, nobody ever asked me about it. That was the first car I have rented in years and it was a very good experience, thanks in part to this thread. Of several codes that I tried, ASAP was the best, and from what I read here it helps a good cause.

A search reveals that code B999000 is thought to be the AVIS employee rate. In the thread, it is recommended not to use this code as past attempts have been met with problems.

Anyone know what this code, D086532, is from? I'd hate to use it, get a great rate and then be moritified - and stuck - if they question it at the Avis counter.
