I've actually earned a decent amount of IHG points using Hertz through this IHG promotion this year. And my rates have been very competitive. Although, I have not been overly impressed with Hertz customer service at the counter. Upgrades are hit and miss, and not as nice as National, Enterprise, or Avis. I'm hoping that changes and has just been a fluke with some of the smaller locations I've used. Madrid Spain had great service and nice upgrades as a 5 Star.

Must be targeted, I got an error when I tried to register. It reminds me a bit of the old days of registering promotion codes, which was apparently something we shouldn't have been doing. I hope there won't be some issues now because I wasn't supposed to try and register for it...

This promotion is based out of the Philippines/SE Asia. Won't be available for anyone in the states... sad times, I say.

It's not unusual. Two years ago there was no summer promo at all and I'm sure that last years summer accelerate didn't start till June.
