For me, TIND1 and TINDR1 both locked in decent rates on a full size and include all coverages and fees, but I wasn't able to apply any coupons. Even when a coupon was accepted, it would be debited and credited out on the same page, rendering it useless. Still, got a much better rate than I would have otherwise with insider and free birthday code.

Thanks for the codes everyone!
Just a quick question on the "Coupon Will Be Applied" for $35 when using the TINDR1 code.....That isnt discounted in the rsvp, but it will be when you go to the counter? For example, it shows that a coupon has been listed for $35, and the total reservation is $200. Does that mean that when I go to pay, it will be factored in and then drop the rate to $165?

Thanks in advance anyone!

Well the only issue I have using any coupon with any of the T, Lufthansa, etc codes is that I won't be able to use the Kiosk and will be directed to the desk. I rather not elevate any chance of being asked about the code I am using.
Especially if the balance comes out to $0.00

Save on Gas and Liability and other advantages

Before renting, register for ALAMO INSIDERS first with your name & license number and all. It saves lots of time.

Corp I.D. codes TIND1 and TINDR1 (add additional drivers free) offer the greatest discounts I've ever seen. Both have advantages INCLUDED with the rental that you don't pay extra for:

1. Upfront Fuel: You can bring back the vehicle empty & save big bucks
2. Collision Damage Waiver Full: Waives your responsibility for the cost of repair, replacement and loss of use of the rental car up to the full value of the vehicle. Applies from "dollar one", so there is no deductible
3. Extended protection - Liability and Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist Protection and Liability Protection - Protection for claims made against you, up to $1,000,000, of PRIMARY liability benefits.
4. Customer Facility Charge fees - no charge
5. Airport Access fees - no charge
6. Tire/battery fees - no charge
7. Vehicle License fee - no charge
And on and on.

I am trying to use the TIND1 or TINDR1 Corp IDs for a 1 day rental on the 27th from Vancouver airport, BC. But it bumps the regular rate by double to about $96. I even put in my Alamo Insiders number to get the regular 10% discount. And still the rate stayed the same for a Compact class car. What am I doing wrong?

If these codes are not applicable for this kind of 1 day rental, can anyone suggest some good Corp IDs or Coupon Codes? Thanks in advance.

That code is generally not a good deal for 1 day rental. If you read back through the many pages on this topic, you will find many many many codes to try. Some good, some not so. Reading is your friend. You can learn lots here.

Anyone notice any recent changes to the TINDR1 code? I'm trying to do a car at Disney in the beginning of November and the discount is good, as expected, but it does not include upfront fuel. This is the first time I've seen it NOT include upfront fuel. It included just fine in my California trip in September.

Just curious if everyone is seeing that? Am I just getting unlucky on the test trips that I am selecting? Or does the code no longer include upfront fuel?

EDIT: Interesting... I did a slightly LONGER search (i.e. anything past 72 hours) and, suddenly, upfront fuel shows up as included in all of those. So, maybe it has to be over 72 hours (which pushes it into an additional day, of course) to qualify for the upfront fuel. Just FYI.

I've found the zero dollar code. If anyone wants to volunteer to try it out I would be willing to PM it to you however I don't think it should be posted since I would imagine it would be pulled very quickly.

Thanks again FT!

I had a last minute need for a pre-cruise rental in FLL and yikes!!! at the rates for a one day weekend rental.

I came looking here after sucessfully using the T1 code last year. TIND1 does not bump the regular rate up as someone else encountered and saves me nearly $14 on the one day rental by including all those extra charges in the rate.

Some other Europcar codes:

45963266
50159271
47506400
46679462

First two of them work pretty good in Europe. Please be aware that the user interface might change after you use the code on the first page.
