Post your Deal... Rental Car Codes August

[CherylA]

The lines are long enough. I know if I was stuck behind somebody who wanted to waste MY vacation time waiting for them to argue over a code they do not qualify would really make me lose my patience and sorry, but I would have no problem telling that person so. I would politely ask the employee to have that person step aside so that those of us who qualify for our codes can begin our vacation. Imagine having your kids hear that.

I too would never use a code I do not qualify. Like you, not worth it to look bad in front of my kid and I don't want the rest of the line behind me to become impatient and hurl nasty comments.

I use Quick Silver so no pissing off people in line behind me Now my kids being confused as to why we had to repark our rental car and go get one from a different agency after we just spent a bunch of time loading it. Thats more my concern. I haven't decided what to do yet...

I wouldn't argue. I plan on having a back up ressie. If they won't take it, fine. The one is in my name and the other will be in DHs name(different last names, blended family), so we'll switch right over. We're also flying into Sanford on a charter, so the lines won't be as bad.

I just got a minivan from Alamo for $227.07 (including all taxes and fees) for Aug 16-21 using a code from Costco and a coupon for a free day from the entertainment book. Not sure if you need to be a Costco member.

I just wish it wasn't the extra days that were killing me. The price for a week isn't bad, but the 2 extra days are almost as much as the first week

Which promotion are you using? I am a member of Costco and I'm not getting rates nearly as good for the same time period with Alamo. Are you using the up to 25% off codes?

It is questionable because the people trying to use it don't qualify for it. The car rental companies catch on to the widespread usage and start requiring proof of residency, employment ID, or membership ID depending on the terms of the code. These codes don't actually become "questionable" until people start getting denied usage. Those who qualify would never call it a questionable code.

I found by searching the code on Google that people are saying it's a travel agent code. It does result in a much lower rate than everything else I've found, but I don't think I'll try it.

Which code was this? I thought I had tried all the Costco codes.

 

[NYDisneyLover]

The Costco code I used was 7014627. The base price for the minivan was $206....it came to $227.07 after the coupon and taxes and fees.
Alamo Rent A Car: Save Up to 25 Percent*
Plus One Free Day
on a 5-Day Rental.
I used a coupon from the Entertainment book for a free day....the one with the offer wasn't good for a minivan.
I got it off the Costco website. I hope this helps you.

Using the Costco codes I am finding a better deal thru National than Alamo. I want to pick up from the Disney Car Care Center around 10 am and return it to MCO 3 days + 3 or 4 hrs. later which is throwing me into a 4 day rental. National thru Costco has a code for a 2 car class upgrade. I called them thru the Car Care Center number and actually went from a "standard" to a "full size" & I started the booking with an "economy" size. The rate does fluctuate a little daily just like the stock market...today it is $33.99 / day. My total for the full size 4 day rental with all the taxes & fees is $162.60. Best deal I've found for a 4 day rental on a Full Size thru Alamo is $191.66.

I believe if you go thru Costco you possibly DO have to show your Costco Membership Card when you pick the car up.

I just called Alamo and was told code 7014266 could be used by anyone. I was given a quote of $227.07 (including all taxes and fees) for either a minivan or SUV for Aug 16-21 at MCO. I also used a coupon for a free day from the Entertainment book. I got the same price quote using Costco code 7014627 ...but you must be a Costco member. The base price was $206 for both codes. I hope this info can help others.

I just checked Alamo site as well as costco.com ... the minivan price that comes up is $600 ....

Did you use any coupon code ?

 

[poohteacher]

Does anyone know where the code 7014266 came from? That's the best rate I have seen for a minivan week rental for August. I have one reserved through Dollar and I don't want to cancel it if this Alamo code isn't valid for me to use.

I also just called Alamo and the lady said with code 7014266 that its an internet special and anyone who books online can use it. She said that code 7011111 will let you book online, but it is rejected at check in. IHTH

I used contract ID 7014627 and coupon AF3067JDW(free day from entertainment book) and Rate/product code LAN. I rented my brother an SUV using code 7014266 with the same coupon and rate code and got the same price as the minivan. He is not a costco member so he couldn't use the other code.I hope this helps you.

[princessjane]

Wow, that code just took like $100 off the price!! And if I rent at the Disney Care Center I can get a Compact for $94 for a week!!! Is the internet code for real? Please tell me it is, Cause I'm ready to book!

If it is an internet special where on the internet can it be found? I would think that this would be advertised on alamo.com. You should have also asked where on the internet you could find out more about it. If there was no place on the internet to look then it really isn't an internet special.
