As of 2/12/14: We've had quite a few "Hey, come use this AWD. It's great" type of posts. When the AWD doesn't give a good discount, but is only posted to try to get renters to use the AWD of someone so the poster can earn free days from their Avis Corporate account. From here out, please put the company/trade group/etc that's associated with the AWD or we'll delete the post to keep it on-topic here.

I just called Avis and asked them if this code (B270898) was still valid and he said "Peregrine System Meetings Corp?" and I said yup. He said it was still valid and I asked whether I needed to bring my ID and he said the reservation system would tell him if that were necessary, but it did not. Up to you if you want to give it a go. On my upcoming Tampa rental, it is around $80 less than the lowest rate I found for 5 days in February.
Please let us know whether you had any issues if you decide to give it a whirl.

It only kills good codes because you just tipped them off.

No matter which code I use, I can't get a rate as low as I got it via www.avis.pl. Renting a car in Jamaica in December, 7 days. Hope everything goes smooth - not the usual problems with AVIS

Seems like if you select your residency to be Poland even in www.avis.com, you get rates that are way lower than anything else. Has anyone tried this when they actually have a US driver's license?
even the .it, .de, .fr and . ie have discrepancies for the same car groups and dates.

I'd argue that this is a code worth killing--it associates FTers with a company which no longer exists and which exited the scene under dubious circumstances. I'd much rather be using valid codes from valid companies, so I can at least argue my case at the counter in being "associated with" said company in some way. How can Long Islander (or anyone) deny attempted fraud when standing at the Avis counter using this particular code?

Peregrine no longer exists. Back in 2003, the SEC charged them with fraud. They went through bankruptcy and were eventually acquired/absorbed by Hewlett-Packard in 2005. Given the fraud charges, I guess it's not a far stretch for someone to now use a fake ID to get an Avis discount under their name.

I'm not questioning the success, just spelling out the situation and outlining risk. And since Peregrine was absorbed by HP, there's probably a comparable HP code worth finding. I'm actually a big risk taker, but I'd be nervous if I ever needed to rely on that LDW for a few thousand dollars.

don't know of one off hand, but i'd recommend just trying MUGA051, -052, -049, etc. Some will be expired, some will be for free weekend days, some will be for $25 or $30 off a week, but you might get lucky.

Hey I was wondering if any of you have used the USAA rental code with Avis? I used it with Budget and never had a problem but this is my first time using Avis so I signed up with the preferred program and will have to go to the desk to get my rental. Will they ask for USAA membership proof.
