EC Free Days, previously expired Dec. 31, 2020 - will not expire another year !

Emerald Club Free Days, which previously expired Dec. 31, 2020, now will not expire until Dec. 31, 2021. That gives you a full extra year to redeem your free days.

As I understand it, the extension only applies to banked free days. 1-2 Free Days will still expire on 12/31/2020.

No email, it's a popup on the National website.

relevant portion of nationalcar.com upper banner:

following changes are being made so you can enjoy the status and benefits you’ve earned, now and in the future:

Elite status will be extended. Current Executive and Executive Elite members with tier set to expire on February 28, 2021 will receive a one-year extension and keep their status through February 28, 2022.

Qualifying rentals and rental days will roll over. If you achieve elite status in 2020, any paid rentals or paid rental days you have beyond your tier qualification will roll over to 2021 to give you a head start on earning toward elite status for 2022. Only the method in which you achieved elite status — either paid rentals or paid rental days — will roll over. For example: If you have 15 paid rentals this calendar year, and 12 paid rentals qualify you for Executive status, the remaining 3 rentals will roll over to 2021 and count toward elite qualification for the 2022 calendar year. If you don’t achieve elite status in 2020, all your paid rentals and paid rental days will roll over to 2021 and count toward elite qualification in 2022.

Emerald Club Elite Tier Qualifications

Executive: 12 rentals or 40 rental days

Executive Elite: 25 rentals or 85 rental days

Rentals or rental days beyond these qualifications will roll over to next year and count toward elite qualification in 2021, as noted above.

Emerald Club free days have been extended! We’re giving members more time to use their hard-earned rewards by extending the expiration date of program free days that were set to expire December 31, 2020 to December 31, 2021. You will see this reflected in your account in the next 6 weeks.

For a limited time, Emerald Club members can redeem their free days at participating Enterprise Rent-A-Car neighborhood locations in the U.S. through December 31, 2020. See details.

Thank you for your continued loyalty during these challenging times.

‡Free day covers base rate (Time & Mileage) only.

Is this for US members only? nationalcar.ca does not have the pop-up, I didn't receive an email, and my reward days expiry dates are not updated.

I got the email as well. It says it will take up to six weeks for this to be completed. So far on my app it still shows 2020 expiration.
