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.

If you're a preferred member (I'm Preferred Plus) can you always skip the counter? I read somewhere that you have to go to the counter if it's your first time renting.

Super duper shady if you consider someone spends $10 at Staples to make business cards, every time they use a corporate discount code, be it car rental or hotels... someone...

I'm preferred and have rented 15 times in just the past year, and even when I worked at UTC a few years back I was never once asked if I worked for UTC or to show any UTC identification. That being said I almost exclusively rent from airport locations.
Some locations like SLC require you to go to the Preferred counter, but I still don't get asked there.
Just be careful.....it looks like they have cracked down a bit on the use of these codes.

Anyone use AWD: D008490 and get the following email? Just got this email today.
I know DEN is a "Avis Preferred Select & Go" location so hopefully I can go straight to the car and avoid the desk. I still have a active Costco booking with Budget that I haven't cancelled that is around the same price. Avis is technically less because of "Amex Offer" of saving $75 on $250+ spent.
We are writing regarding the vehicle you reserved for pick up on XXXXXXXX, 2021 at Denver Intl Apo. As you may know, this reservation was made using a corporate AWD discount code that is not available to the general public and requires validation of eligibility at the time of vehicle pick up.
Accordingly, please be prepared to produce your company badge, a business card, or a recent email with the company's domain name for corporate identification purposes at the time of vehicle pick up. If you’re unable to provide this validation of eligibility for the corporate AWD discount code, your reservation may be voided and/or the rental rate is subject to change.
Our goal is to ensure that you have a seamless rental experience so we thank you in advance for your cooperation.
If you need to update your reservation, please contact our reservation center at 1-888-439-0630. Our customer support agents will be happy to assist you with finding the best rate available for your travel needs.
Thank you,
Avis Customer Support Team

I made a reservation using a corp AWD code and did the prepay option. I later noticed cancellation was not free. If they ask for verification which I will not be able to provide, will they refund me since I am not eligible for corp rate? I have a backup reservation at Hertz
