Dear flyertalker:
a) I never expect anyone to have a magic wand, much so on an internet public forum. I only ask for inputs/opinions, and make my own decision thereon.
b) My company contract id does not make it ineligible for miles, and I do get miles from National on my company contract id, but it's only 50 miles per day, or 500 miles for 5 day or more rental.
c) If you read my post carefully, I mentioned that for "bonus" miles, you need to put in a specific contract id, like for bonus SW points, you have to put in a SW specific contract id, ese you'll get the regular 600 SW points per rental.
d) National is the "only" official rental car company that I can choose - a first for you, and for me as well.
Thank you for your feedback. Pls keep it coming.
