Hi folks,
DW and I collect United miles in my account. (She's an AU one my club card and we book on the same PNR and get benefits of club card when traveling.)
Anyway, she's got her own Hertz rental. She doesn't have a hertz gold profile. Can i somehow make the booking on her behalf but get the bonus UA miles posted to my MP account? Maybe create a Hertz profile for her but put my UA MP ID number?
thanks for any advice.

Book under your name online. Then call 800 # and ask to add her to the booking. They should ask for her info including drivers license # so have that ready. Odds are she can pickup and return the rental and your account will get the points.
Nothing's for certain with Hertz IT but this worked at least 12 times that I'm aware of in 2015.

Remember, with the current offer, you have to book on the United site (not the Hertz site) to get the bonus points. If you provide your Hertz Gold number while doing that, then the reservation will be linked to your profile over at Hertz. If you don't provide your Hertz Gold number while booking at UA, you may have trouble pulling up the reservation at Hertz (which you need to do add her arriving flight number). And having it linked should make it easier for you to add her as an additional driver too (as described by others above).

Thank you all. And from credit card CDW perspective we are ok as long as she's as secondary on the rental and is also an AU on my chase card.

1. Booked on hertz.com with cdp and pc at an off airport location- received 0 miles
2. Booked on United.com for airport location and then changed to off airport location on hertz.com - received the 500 +750
3. Booked airport location on united.com - received 2750
The miles posted very inconsistently. ALL miles posted on Saturdays. I should note 5/6 rentals were in CANADA.

I wonder if Ua will give you the points for off airport locations if you follow up about missing miles

Just got the miles posted today for a rental I returned last Saturday.
I got 1500 bonus plus 500 miles. What's the deal with the extra 250 that I n d to get because I'm a United club cardholder? It should be 1500+750. Does the 250 post later on or do I need to harass United/MP?
Thanks

You're lucky, I got just 1,000 of the promised 2,750 miles and no reply to my retro-claims.
Back to Avis, thanks.

does anyone know the full terms of the mileage plus earnings from hertz? is there a minimum number of days or a minimum class i need to rent?
right now i have 10 or so weekend (3 day) rentals with hertz at very good prices for their cheapest econo car in south africa. this can be very valuable as the rental<>cpm is close to 0.01
would that qualify me for the 500+750 mileage plus as a plat? i see on the ua website it requires a "qualifying rental" but no description as to what a "qualifying rental" actually is.
this was booked on hertz.com and i entered in my MP info for every reservation.

An update
I rented a compact (1 level above the lowest) off airport in Capetown in mid February
Booked on hertz . Com, no cdp or any of that. just entered in ff on booking page
3 days weekend rate
500+750 posted just now, 35 days after rental
Now I'm wondering if this applies to the lowest (T class)

Website now shows offer is valid through end of September 2016...almost feels like an old Jos. A Bank sale at this point 
I did have a couple questions for folks:
1) Can someone tell what part of the country the bonus miles do NOT apply for? It seems to not be valid anywhere in Norway. On the UA website, there is nothing specifically stating that certain regions may be excluded from the promotion.
2) Does a rental of '1 day or more' mean it literally has to be longer than 24 hours or not?

If anyone has an answer to my country-specific question, would be great...need to book a couple car rentals in Norway for a trip next month, so would like to know sooner rather than later
