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.

Greater than what?
Although there might be some AWDs that are only available to residents of certain countries, many AWDs require some type of affiliation, such as being an employee of a certain company, or an alumnus of a particular college or university (regardless of where one resides). Some time ago, a U.K. resident who received his graduate degree at a particular school in the U.S. discovered that he was permitted to utilize his school's contract code for a leisure rental with National Car Rental in the U.S.; he realized substantial savings on the rental.
If you would need full insurance coverage (loss/damage waiver and $1,000,000 third-party liability coverage), you should price a rental on your home country's Avis website; you might find a very favorable all-inclusive rate there, compared to what you might find if you priced the rental on Avis' U.S. site. In addition, if you book your airfare and car rental together through your airline's "vacation" site, you might get a very good deal that way, too.
Good luck!

Yes I know. In fact, the price from Avis in my country is much cheaper than the price from Avis.com for the same reservation. There are AWD that can be used in the USA by people who do not have their residence in the USA or Canada. If I have to become a member of, for example, an airline points program or similar, there would be no problem.
On the avis website for my country I can also use AWD and that is exactly what I want. If possible with a 15% discount on the final price (I already have the 10% discount).

Hello - I have been using a great corporate code that did not include LDW for a few years now from a former employer. Beginning this week, I noticed that it now will autoselect LDW and I can't remove (used to put on my Chase Sapphire). Does anyone have a similar experience and know if this can be removed manually to put on my Sapphire instead? Thank you.

I have made a booking using this code - the rates are great! Is there an expectation that I need to share some ID to be eligible for this? Or is it open to anyone?
Thanks

All: back to the subject of the thread...
Since this was first brought to my attention last year I've been in a precarious limbo in between being retiree explicitly entitled to use my previous employers non-work related AWD - which has been attached to my Preferred Profile for decades - and the new policy.
I have rented several times over the last year at a variety of locations, both airport and off-airport. I've dreaded these encounters because as I was formerly labor, not management, I was never issued either a company email nor a business card. I don't carry the bureaucracy of my entire life with me when on vacation, nor do I think that should be expected. When I've asked ex employer benefits about this I was told, point blank: "you didn't merit an email or business card while working and you're not getting one now."
But back when I joined many car rental preferred customer programs I was issued a membership card emblazoned with my name, account number, and corporate status. I have presented this card on top of my license and credit card at the counter and have not been challenged for anything else.
I'm glad I held on to those things because I recall thinking I had lost one a few years ago and when I asked AVIS customer service to send me another I was told "we don't issue physical cards anymore."

I just had a lunch with former colleagues and we talked about using AWD codes posted here, 2 of them had their reservations cancelled and they finally had to pay full price. I don't have much details about which codes were used.
