If you did not finish your 4 rentals by 6/30, then you lose them.

My understanding is that we start with 0 although it would have been nice if they threw in some points for AvisFirst members - or at least those who already made Preferred Plus by 7/1.

The big unknowns for me are:

1 - how much the points are worth?
2 - would all corporate rates that did not qualify for frequent flyer points qualify for Avis point accumulation now?
3 - would a partially paid rental (e.g. $200 rental but turned in a $25 coupon OR if they took off $25 due to problems) earn points (for the paid portion - $175 in our example)?

T&C seem to say NO for #2 and #3 which is not good.

Thanks.
