I've got the biz card, but we have no "company ID" AND I sure as heck ain't gonna lug the work laptop on a beach vacation just so that I can show an email with the company's domain (and my mobile phone doesn't have their email either -- I'd have to turn over control of the device to them if I want email on it, and I'm not about to do that).

So I will totally use the "your email says I need to show A OR B OR C" (and I'll show them my biz card which satisfies the "OR" condition :-) ), but are they really changing the rules again come Oct. 1?

OR is this a new, more stringent policy for rentals that are reserved AFTER Oct. 1? .
