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.

Family just rented from Avis in SEA. They were asked to provide proof of employment. Provided a biz card, but apparently come Oct. 1, a business card is no longer going to be accepted. Have to show a paystub, or letter from company or your company email. Can anyone confirm this?
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?
prepared to produce your company ID, business card, or a recent email with the companys email domain (e.g. [MENTION=25805]xyz[/MENTION]company.com) for employment verification purposes when picking up your vehicle.

Can anyone confirm this Oct. 1 date that SEA Avis is telling people? In the confirmation letter I received for an upcoming rental, it says "Please be prepared to produce your company ID, business card, or a recent email with the company’s email domain (e.g. [MENTION=25805]xyz[/MENTION]company.com) for employment verification purposes when picking up your vehicle."

Business card is not worth the paper it is printed on since people can just make their own and copy/paste logo from corporate website.

Anyone know if there's an AWD code for Vodafone employees?
I can see why you are not going to lug a laptop or show mobile phone as you mentioned in the other thread (actual post since removed by moderator action in post# 8) that you, today, don't actually even have any access to your corporate email address (for potential pre-booking Avis email verification).

Wonder how long the "fake email" will work as well.
FYI - recently rented from airport in unnamed city and nobody asked for anything. i had a backup reservation just in case.

I’m renting a lot and my AVIS location created an AWD and a discount for me. Its J323400. Feel free to use it - if it will give you a better price, no ID needed.
Was told it is Cityflex discount - mean it gives maximum discount in a number of a largest US cities and works the best on a long rentals.

When you say they created it for you, what does that mean exactly? Won't they have limited it to you only? Or is it akin to you being "ABC Corp" and instead of your "employees", you have authorized every Tom, Dick, Harry and bambino on the Internet to avail themselves of it, no questions asked?

This is giving me a huge discount on a month long rental picking up at ATL and dropping off at PBI. Very tempted but I would hate to get called out and end up paying twice as much using my company's AWD# instead...

This is giving me an excellent discount.
