Is there a way to verify that I will receive 5000 Delta points if using MUAA133 and AWD D005297
or
MUAA133 and our company's discount with Avis.
Would hate to be told afterwords that no Delta 5000 miles will be posted.
thanks

I have used MUAA133 this year already in April, can I use it again for 5000 Delta points in July or is it just one time deal?
I have used MUAA133 14 times this year. Only once did I not get the 5K bonus SkyMiles. I used the Farmers AWD code. I entered the AWD and MUAA133 when I reserved on the web site. No warning that the code would not work. When I picked up the car I confirmed at the counter that the coupon code was in the reservation. When I dropped off the car I saw NO FF miles at all on the receipt, not even the usual 500 miles for a 5-day rental. I went to the counter and the rep confirmed that the coupon was in the reservation. I later received a 5500 miles post for a rental that occurred AFTER the one with the Farmers code. I contacted Avis and they said that the biz for that code (she didn't mention Farmers) does not allow for FF mile earning. All my other rentals were using the Amateur Sports Assistance code, D005297.
So clearly some AWDs don't work but it is not Avis' doing but the doing of whomever owns that code.
Summary (all coupons below work with any AWD as long as the owner of the code doesn't preclude FF miles earning.)
MUAA132 - 3-day + rental, all car types - 2,500 bonus DL SkyMiles - Good through 12/31/2009 - no limit (I have earned 25,000 bonus SkyMiles using this code in 2009.)
MUAA133 - 4-day + rental, all car types - 5,000 bonus DL SkyMiles - Good through 12/31/2009 - no limit (I have earned 65,000 bonus SkyMiles using this code in 2009)
MUAA088 - 2-day + rental, all car types - 5,000 bonus DL SkyMiles - Good through 7/31/2009 - Limit 5 for a total limit of 25,000 bonus miles. (I have used this code twice since the promo came out and have 3 more uses before the expiration on July 31.)
For the above: All miles have either posted already or the receipt printed the correct miles and they just haven't posted yet (within the last 3 weeks from today).
Hope this helps. If it did help anyone out there, would you mind looking at
this post here (totally different hotel promo but FF mile related) and if you have any advice to share I would sooo much appreciate it.
FYI, when Avis introduced a 5K bonus for 4-day rentals last year it was in March. I earned over 170K SkyMiles from that code alone in 2008. Sweet
