Upgrade + Double credit

Just got this in e-mail....

"Now through September 30, 2005, you can receive double Rapid Rewards credit (1 Rapid Rewards credit, rather than the standard 0.5 credits per rental) and receive a Free One Car Class Upgrade on qualifying Leisure Daily, Leisure Weekly, and Leisure Weekend Rate rentals of two or more days. Simply rent a Compact (Class B) through Full-size (Class F) car at a participating airport and suburban location in the U.S. or Canada.

For reservations, visit southwest.com, hertz.com, or call Hertz at 1-800-654-2210. When you make your reservation, please include Rapid Rewards discount number CDP 205418 (when booking on southwest.com, please enter 205418 in the Corporate ID/Rate box), and Promotion Code # 954096. Be sure to provide your Rapid Rewards account number at time of rental pickup"

If you book with the SWA CDP, you will normally get a 10-15% discount off the base rate. If you are using some of the above codes, you may also get another $5 per day off the base rate. Add all these savings up and many times it's possible to have a total charge that is below the base rate.....................

That's a good deal but here is a better one

Aparently there is an identical offer out there that gives four credits
or 2000 miles with PC 968741 and has the same terms as the before mentioned offer with 3 credits.

FOUR FULL CREDITS??? WOW, that's a free ticket every four rentals!!
The best I had seen is 4x the credits, or 2 full credit per rental.

Are all other T&C the same as the OP for 3 credits??

Thanks!!

I just returned a car a couple of days ago and the Hertz statement said:

You've earned 4.5 credits!!

And if I read the previous post, it says the credits are ADDITIONAL, so this adds up. If true, this is better than an old fashioned RT in the good days of 2x credits.

Not posted on my SW RR account yet, but I'm checking daily.

Which PC# did you use? It must be the PC#968741 which says four bonus credits (plus the normal .5 credit)= 4.5 credits. I assume the other PC#968763 says three bonus credits + normal .5 credits= 3.5 credits.

That is a bonanza! Did you receive the promo...do you know if terms and conditions are the same as the three credit bonus?


Has anyone actually had the bonus credits post yet?
Thanks!!

The same happened to me!

When I returned the car, the statement said I earned 4.5 credits, the credits posted yesterday, and it was only 0.5. It may be that the bonus will post later.

Will check with Hertz and post my updates.

William: I've used the PC for 4 credits from this thread. I don't have the T&C, but sanFF indicated they are the same as in the 3 credit promo.

Are you in the "President's Circle"? Is that code only for members of the P.C. or can anybody use the 4.5 credit code?

I booked a rental for my coworker next week at TPA using 968741. It allowed me to reserve the car and accepted the PC. We'll soon find out if it works and the credits post; he rents from Hertz perhaps twice a year.

Here is a link to the offer, from the Hertz forum.

http://offers.hertzgold.com/offer.aspx?offerid=118

Does not seem to be targeted, or restricted, but it's a Hertz Gold offer.
Anyone can get Hertz Gold for $10 by signing up to the Ameniti intro offer with United. This will get you a bunch more stuff as well, including one year of conde nast travel, a bottle of wine, 2 passes to the red carpet club...and yes, some deals with United too. Be sure to cancel within three months, unless you're happy with the service!!
