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? |

Anyone know a similar code to MUGA050 that is valid for 2016? The original code expired end of 2015? It gave $40 off on a weekly rental I believe. Thanks!

I tried this code and got some huge discounts on some weekly domestic rates. I called Avis and they told me it was for Peregrine Systems Meetings.

Couldn't believe my eyes when I just tried it for a 2 day rental, and it offered me every category at $50... |
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.

Are there any coupons for Hawaii ? So far any/every coupon I punch in does not work in Hawaii ? i got a really good AWD rate and now I am looking to see if I can use some coupon to sweeten the deal ...
|
So can anyone report on recent use of the Peregrine code? I am booking for a week in Italy and it is producing fabulously cheap results - wondering if I should chance it.

best thing with ANY codes really of question is to have ONE or A COUPLE backups. If you take this code and get a rate and then pitch it out to #Autoslash you should get near that with other vendors for a backup |
Do prices change around quickly? Last week I checked a 7 day rental out of LAS in April and I can't get the same quotes to come up now. I'm using the same codes as last week.

prices change sometimes HOURLY, it's supply and demand, changes in the weather, changes in schedules, changes in competitor inventory. Best thing to do is if you see a price you like RESERVE IT, you can always cancel and then pitch it over to something like AS (see above post) and let THEM do the work on tracking for lower prices. Sometimes I get 1-3 different emails from then AN HOUR when prices are changing quickly. They re-book it all so normally there is nothing to do (unless they offer you a lower price at a different vendor or a different car class) but it really shows how quickly and often sometimes offers change. Disclaimer: I have NO AFFILIATION with #AS at all, just a happy customer |
Thanks for the info. I think the last time I rented a car was in 92. So, yeah, I really didn't know. Damn, now I wish I would have booked that. I'll keep checking. Thanks

I got a good rate last Monday with Peregrine's code, Sheraton Waikiki -> HNL airport for one day. One-way fees ($50) waved. No questions asked at all, for those who wondered.
Second best for this was A442100 (Deloitte), otherwise used it successfully in New Zealand in Nov 2014. |
AWD H811101: This Simon Malls promotion originally expired at the end of 2015, but it's back again now, valid for reservations through Dec.31 2016, with pickup dates until Feb. 2017: http://www.avis.de/mietwagen-angebot...prozent-sparen
Good rates in the USA and Canada (only), CDW included, and perfectly legitimate. Try several EU Avis sites for cheapest results - prices vary. |
Best Codes 2016
These 2 codes have been the best for me by a wide margin for US Rentals in 2016:
A442100 (Deloitte) B270898 (Peregrine) They have been neck and neck as far discount as well. |
Any recommendations for a "safe" code for an upcoming UK one way rental. Going from Dover to London.

Yes, denied at counter. I was also renting on a rather unusual one way and this may have contributed as well.

i take it you were denied at the counter, right? for preferred plus, i use this code and others and prepay my reservations. my only interaction with an agent is if i want to change vehicles...

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.

Anybody know what AWD code U915590 is?
Can anybody comment on code U915590? Is this a public access code? I found it on slickdeals but haven't really seen anyone commenting on it.
So far I have gotten my best rates through use of this code coupled with a Costco car upgrade discount code. Pickup - ABF (Naples Airport) 4/9 at 3:30pm Dropoff - RSW (Southwest Intl) 4/17 at 5:00 am Best rate I have gotten all in is $311. Any assistance would be appreciated, especially if folks see better rates. Thanks! |
Has anyone had a problem with "A108300". It is a Costco code, and I am NOT a Costco member. However I can't find a code giving me anything cheaper than what that code is offering me. It allows me to prepay on the website so will they still randomly ask me for a Costco member ID at the desk?
Thanks |

QQ, any ID required at check in? The price didn't drop compared to the one from my company, but interestingly enough more car types became available (Full Size) and the Prius dropped like $400. Maybe some type of green car agreement or something? |

I have a reservation at SNA this weekend with that code. I don't think SNA is a Select and Go location, so I have to go to counter even though I am PP. Will report back if I get rejected or not as that is the best rate I could find so far.

I know that L093590 is supposed to be Kellwood but I can't find anything on the net giving me a clue as to where K444414 comes from. Anyone notice this and find out more info? Funny thing is... K444414 dropped the price another 10 Euro, so I guess that's good? I really want to know if LDW is still included. |
