Not sure if this will help but it worked for me. On the third try I confirmed at budget.com and there was the BCD code. Good luck. Tell us if it is successful.

When I called Budget to have THEM put in my FB# they said, "wait, this is changing the rate slightly". For 10K I was fine with the few extra dollars of not using the corp discount that is tied to my FB#. I can live without the FB service for this kinda of promo.

Add your FastBreak number to your Co.com traveler profile, but do not input it when you do your searches. It changes from the correct CO BCD to your personal BCD. When it is part of your traveler profile, it does not interfere with the rate quoted.
