Rate goes up when signed in as Emerald Exec ?

Another first for me: Trying to rent a midsize for 2 weeks in October and get a quote of $480 - sounds reasonable..
But if I sign in, the rate shoots to $700

This is without having selected any insurances as they are all covered by CC..

What the heck

There are discount (corporate) codes that can include damage waivers, unlimited mileage, and more liberal one-way rules. Just delete the code from the discount field after you log in.

Could the $220 be taxes/fees/etc?

Alternately, there's a code or contract the site is applying when you're logged out, that it's *not* applying when you're logged in.

Look at the lower price reservation, click the "modify trip" link, and note the contract code and rate code (if any). If you log in and manually enter that contract and rate code, you should get the same price.

Obv. this was just a glitch because there was no corp code whatsoever in any booking - still the amount differed.

As per today I do get the exact same rates whether being signed in or not..

Thanks though for all the input !
