I'm liking the Hertz option. For $60 in e-rewards you get 500 Hertz points which is good for any size car on a weekend. The fancy cars usually run over $75/day. Thoughts.

I liked it too and redeemed for it on May 31. Unfortunately, no points have yet shown up in my Hertz account. The erewards email says it will take 6-8 weeks, so I'm holding off writing customer service.

Has anyone else tried to redeem? It's a fairly new option.

You are only allowed 1 redemption per calendar quarter. I think the only reward that has unlimited redemption option is Priority Club.

it was my first Hertz redemption... ever. The email I have states that I will be receiving them. Normally, if the time has not passed to be able to redeem again, the system will not allow it.

As well, CO has monthly redemptions now.

I redeemed for PC points immediately after they started offering them and they did not post. I wrote customer service about 2 months after and they resolved the problem. So it may take some time for the things to work.

Thumbs down

Another survey wasted 10 mins of my time for 25 e-rewards cents. It asked about 20 questions, including a series about which retailers I've visited when looking for internal hard drives. Once it discovered which retailer I actually bought my hard drives from, it finally decided that I don't qualify. (I wonder what they have against newegg.com?)

It was titled "Study about Business Purchases", so you might want to give it a miss if you get that one.

Looks like Hilton is no longer an option, but it's nice to see Hertz in there. The rental car is usually the only part of the trip I have to pay for

Update...

I looked at my Hertz account earlier this week and the points finally posted.

Dang I was saving up for Hilton. Oh well, makes my decision to redeem on Continental easy.

If you list rewards by category, they are still there. Also, still listed on Hilton web site.

Wish airline miles came in tiered redemptions with increasing miles for higher dollar redemption.

Hmmm...Hilton still not showing on mine, in either place. Strange.

It is not showing up on pull down list of companies for me on e-rewards, so I tried going through Hilton and clicking on the "exchange now" button. That just took me back to main menu for exchanges, which does not include Hilton.

Looks like it's still PC or CO for me...

Interesting. I have Hilton on the drop-down menus and on the main rewards page, after Hawaiian and before JC Penny. The Hilton selection goes to the Hilton partner page, which leads to the 4 specific rewards pages:
* $25
* $50
* $75
* $100
