Came across this thread, went to check and see. And got "Congratulations. You have been awarded Avis President's Club® status". I'm Platinum, pushing close to 1K, and I have United Club CC.

I signed up for an AVIS account last night. However, when I tried to add my Chase United card got the "try another card" error. Tried a few more times with same outcome, so had to add a different card. Thanks AVIS...

Glad to report that I was able to link accounts and get President's Club status. Until yesterday the web site said I was not eligible. Guess it has been fixed.

Worked now for me, mostly. Got the success screen from MP, got the profile update email from Avis, but Avis.com doesn't show the new status yet.

Mine was instant - the top ribbon says "Avis Preferred" to the left of my name but if you mouse hover over your name it should pop up and say in a very large font Avis President's Club

For those of us who haven’t ever used Avis, should we sign up for their program first, then try and link, or do you go through the process through MP and it creates and account?

Signed up for the program on the Avis Website. Then immediately went to the United status match website and it processed everything correctly. 1K matched to president’s club status.

I did not get a welcome email, but I just checked the website and my profile states "preferred", and the red card displayed says "Preferred".

Same for me ... 1K with Infinite Club card. Tried multiple times over couple days from app and website. Checked all my profile details and did a dummy Avis booking, reserved car no problem so know account is still valid (not my first choice car rental company).

Dittos. Finally working for me now. I guess enough of us complained and they fixed the bug for those with status but not the CC.

are you going to email Avis and have them manually put PC status on?
