I always use the Hertz website for booking, but it should work through southwest.com. Yes, it sounds like you did it right. The promotional coupon will make anything less than a midsize unavailable for booking. When booked correctly, your itinerary on hertz.com should show:

Well, ressie has been made. How long will it take to post after the transaction is complete?

Alamo is offering $10/day weekend rentals most everywhere in the U.S. except Denver, Aspen, and New York City. Start your booking here or use I.D. 7014691 and Rate/Product Code WKND. Dedicated FlyerTalk thread here (credit to Beckles). Details, terms, and conditions:
While this rate won't qualify for double, triple, or even quadruple credit, you're still eligible to get the standard Rapid Rewards half credit and the savings, in most instances, will dwarf the loss of any bonus Rapid Rewards credits.
This offer is pretty much under a different code now, even though it was supposed to last until 5/31/09: 7014730 is the one to use, not 7014731, although I got the old code to work at STL last weekend. It often generates an error message for me when trying to use it at www.southwest.com.

The old code just gave me a quote of $70+ before taxes/fees for three days in HOU for a compact this coming weekend, but the new one gives $30. I have NOT had to use the WKND Rate/Product code.

Midsizes are $14, full-size $18, premium $20.

Or if you go to www.alamo.com and click on the "Hot Deals" tab at top, it comes up at left. Currently, it's the 4th listing down.

This $10 Alamo deal has now worked several times for me, and I get the .5 RR credit every time, even for 1-day rentals.

I just booked a trip with thsi code as well, and my days did not line up exactly. The code requires a Monday return and I was not departing until Wednesday. I booked 2 days with this code and 2 additional days with a different (1.5 RR) code. I ended up saving $60, although I will have to swap cars. That's not a big deal as the office is only 10 minutes away and I have done this before, so I have the system down.

I agree with you on that one...

I would definitely agree with you on that one. I've got 6 separate rentals from Oct & Nov of last year that they haven't posted correctly with the triple credit. They only post .5 credits instead of 1.5. The Cust Serv Rep from SWA even agreed everything looked fine and I have tried several times to get it rectified and the only response I got back in the form of a letter from Budget was "Southwest informed us the credits have been posted". It hardly seems worth the effort to try and complain.

Checked this against other promo codes with Alamo, and this returns higher base rates. Be aware and be sure to check other codes for the best price.

You can change your reservation on hertz.com, but will likely lose your corporate pricing and benefits since the quad credit promo requires its own CDP and PC.
