Although on a different thread IIRC there have been reports of Hertz not honoring the rate when you mix the XCT1/FRDM RQ and the PC#135892 quote ( See this Post ).

Hertz Coupons and Discount Discussion

Nothing gold can stay

But let's be honest, even FRDM standalone is a pretty good deal. It's still half off the normal rates I can get at my HLE for instance.

This happens all the time. Hertz is actively monitoring FT. Everything we say to each other we are saying to Hertz.

First time poster in the hertz section:

I have a need to secure a Chevy Equinox or Larger car October 22-24. Is there a way I can take advantage of my status to buy a cheaper car in expectation of receiving a larger one? Also, I am (rightfully) using my USAA CDP mostly for my age, are there any PC codes to go along with it right now?

Much thanks

Well as long as they don't read the drunk thread on OMNI...

In regards to 5*, you are not guaranteed an upgrade (it's based on availability and the general mood of the staff that day) and I would not count on receiving one (i.e., book the minimum car class that you need). In terms of USAA, they generally treat us well (I'm USAA too ) and usually I get an upgrade; again, don't count on it though. Where are you renting? That perhaps has the most influence on what you will receive (airport vs. HLE vs. franchise). In regards to PCs, you're renting in the middle of the week, so unfortunately there really aren't that many. You can try PC# 173515, which would save you $5 a day on a minimum 2-day reservation; however, I last used it in September and I don't know when it expires -- also, it can only be used at HLEs.

I'd still like to know if the person who manages www.zipada.com is on FT.

No conflict here; the site is great, and I just want to say hi.

It's a surprisingly clean site with all the latest Hertz deals, and no ads!

Then only way they seem to be making money is by plugging in their CDP, which you can always change. And they aren't really making money, just a free day for every 8 days rented.

Save $20 a day, up to $100, on a Prestige Collection or Adrenaline Collection vehicle rental when you include PC# 174296 in your reservation.

Standard T&Cs apply; minimum age for Prestige Collection and Adrenaline Collection is 25 (YMMV -- but don't be surprised if you're not 25 and they tell you no). Valid through December 31, 2012.

I've never understood why the ski special isn't valid in Portland, Oregon.

If your booking parameters meet those specified per code (in this case, weekend OR weekly), then try submitting the booking without the code, then "edit" when the car selection page appears. It worked for me this way.

You can also book via Travelocity. It will always work there. You can enter any combination of CDP Code, PC Code, #1 Club ID. Easy way to get around Hertz's neutered website. :P

I am impressed, in the past Hertz desk not ONE time ever recognized the rate I reserved the car at if using one of these coupons, I always had to have the printed reservation to prove it, but now they have gone even one better, they had a rate increase so instead of changing my rate they put me in a car 3 levels lower than what I reserved, wow...

Simply amazing, do all car rental agencies always screw you?

I am on the phone now to see if I will get my original rate back, thankfully I printed the reservation, because I learned my lesson with Hertz...

I dont use other companies cuz hertz is the only one with fancier cars to choose from...but wow, how damn corrupt can you get

They say they are fixing it, but it wasnt a mistake, they had a rate increase and figured they could get the new rate out of me...

oops, no, she lied to me, did NOT send me email with the fix and did NOT fix it online, wow...wow wow wow

put this in wrong place, sorry, but yes, she said she would email something i could print with the revised correct figure on it, she did NOT do that nor is it changed on line...

i assume this is done to everyone who deals with hertz, but you would think more would complain about it, guess n
