Question regarding Budget 5x points promotion
I am trying to book a Budget Rental Car for the 5x points promotion. The rules say I must enter BCD number U072700 for the 30% off portion of the promotion, which is easy enough to do, as I see where that goes. However, the rules also say that I must enter coupon number MUAZ039 to receive the bonus credits. I have been all over the site and nowhere do I see where you can enter this coupon number. Anyone have any idea where they expect you to put this code in there upon booking the car? Thanks.

When you say "the site" do you mean southwest.com or budget.com?
When trying to stack promos/coupons, I go to the individual rental company's site. Not that I always actually GET the miles/credits, but the dollar amount at least comes out right.

I know this doesn't solve the issue, but if you want to go through southwest.com, if you book directly through the offer page, the discounts are applied.

Be forewarned that Budget has a lot of issues and that you may need to fight to get any/all of your credits.

Read the Budget forum for more horror stories. I don't know why this company cannot get its act together.
There is Hertz, and there is "not exactly!" However, overall, Dollar is pretty good and a lot cheaper. Perhaps that is why these two companies are merging.
