I would call Budget customer service or fax them a copy of your rental agreement/receipt to 800.293.4608 and complain. It’s worked for me in the past. ^
I checked again today when I returned the car, and they are a Budget franchise location that has selected to not participate in the airline miles program. They are listed on the budget web site, and there is no indication that they are a franchise or that airline miles will not be awarded. Using the search function for locations, there is also no indication that this is a franchise with no airline miles. I will contact customer service to complain.
