From other posts, it looks like it's when it was booked. Really frustrating cause I had a one week rental that I thought would count towards the promotion. Gonna raise a stink with Hertz if the points dont post

I didn't get my triple points last time they ran this promo (it would have been to the tune of 20k extra points), so most likely I won't get triple points this time around.

The terms state " Offer has no cash value and cannot be combined with any other bonus offer or other promotion."

What happens if I rent a car for 2 days and am registered for both the 550 bonus (for putting an add-on to the rental) and triple points? Will the system give me only the reward that grants the higher point total?

I just received both at SJC today. 792 points for a base rate of $59.21 after CDP & PC and 4 days of satellite radio for $14 (AAA rate). I made my reservation for the car 4 weeks ago and just modified with the addition of satellite radio after registration for both the triple points and 550 promos. I am 5*, also.

Well, those other posts are wrong and I am proof of it. The only thing I did was modify my reservation by adding satellite. I made the reservation 4 weeks ago and got triple points today at SJC.

They've just opened up the offer in our part of the world ^.
Just checked my account activity and my rental this week earned the Triple points as well as the 550 points offer.

I agree, I interpret the T&C's as when you pick it up at the lot rather than when you book the reservation.

I just did a web chat for my triple points on the 3 rentals I had during the promo, and was told that they should post 10 days after returning the car

They've been posting instantly upon return on mine. Why can't they do that for everybody?

Hmm... I'll give it a few days before I call to see what's up... Not too worried as they have been fair with awarding points thus far for me... I have gotten the 550 bonus points instantly, but not with these... Maybe something in the T&C that I didn't read closely?

Ah- It was in fact just me not reading the fine print - I rented the car for 1 day, but the T&C's state minimum 2 days Oh well, I got a $14/day rate for a Prius, so I would have gotten only extra 28 points, which doesn't really bother me too much (And seems like Hertz wouldn't fuss too much about topping off a bit for me either)

Actually, my return receipts have been showing the points I'll earn on that rental, including all bonuses. And yes, they post instantly. One exception might be if the promo requires a 2-day rental and you're under 48 hours - seems their system isn't posting these at all and you need to convince an agent.

Not sure if half an hour of my time is worth 28 points but I didn't notice the receipts that show how many points I earn on that rental (unless you mean the return receipt)
