Any problems with SAN location on getting promotions
 
Has anyone had good or bad luck with this location concerning skymiles promotion, the reason i ask is that SAN is a franchise and it seems hard to get budget promotion to work if its a franchise location compare to a corp location.
thanks

I don't think you'll get any bonuses for franchise locations. For that reason I have never used this location for a promotion, so I can't say for sure.

But then again I think Budget bonuses even at valid locations still only work < 50% of the time, so good luck if you try one.

I just got back from my SAN rentals, both rentals showed my miles correctly on the receipts, first time a budget location had this on it that i have seen, usually its only avis that has it, but then i am not a big car rental person.
So i am confident that my miles should post, but now i want to rent at ANC which is not a crop either. Anyone here had any experience with ANC and miles. Delta has a promo with budget which is better then the CO promo of 8,500 miles, so i plan on renting for 5 days in alaska.
thanks

I rented at the Budget SAN location about a year ago. My base miles posted but as a franchise location I did not get the bonus miles. I even spoke with customer service since my reservation accepted the promotion code, but no luck.
