Do they have a drop box for after hours returns?
Post by: Yosef_S on January 29, 2015, 03:25:07 AM
Do you specifically need National? Enterprise offers both pick-up and after hours returns, and rentals with Enterprise can earn rental credits in the National program. (In fact, if the rental is from an Enterprise location which is in an area that isn't served by National, which is basically most neighborhood locations, then the Enterprise rental would even qualify for National promotions such as One Two Free.)

(In fact, if the rental is from an Enterprise location which is in an area that isn't served by National, which is basically most neighborhood locations, then the Enterprise rental would even qualify for National promotions such as One Two Free.)are you sure about that? I remember reading somewhere that it needs to be from National to qualify for the 1-2-free promotion.
Post by: Yosef_S on January 29, 2015, 01:07:02 PM
are you sure about that?
https://www.emeraldclubpromos.com/12free/2014/?action=outer.faq
"Do I receive credit for rentals completed with Enterprise®?
You can receive ONE TWO FREE bonus points for an Enterprise neighborhood rental if you qualify for that bonus opportunity. If you qualify, the Enterprise neighborhood bonus opportunity will appear on your Bonus Opportunities page on the promotion website. Other Enterprise rentals, not considered neighborhood bonus opportunity rentals, are not qualifying ONE TWO FREE rentals and will not result in ONE TWO FREE points outside of the bonus opportunity, but will count as a program credit on your Emerald Club account if you use your Emerald Club number on the rental."

By the way, is it just me or does national not have any codes to waive underage?
And in general, whats the best method for cheap prices with them?
Post by: Yehuda25 on February 10, 2015, 10:11:13 AM
Not that it directly applies to this, especially because you didn't actually specify what you're trying to do, but as an aside, if you're matching over from Hertz to National, I would just mention that I've recently found that Hertz's elite statuses have been essentially worthless. I've been Hertz PC for over a year now, and I've found their service to be steadily decreasing. First they downgraded PC from a 2-class upgrade to a 1-class, then they made it only if available. As a PC I haven't been getting any special treatment or cars any nicer than I would have otherwise gotten. (Interestingly enough, I found this to be especially true in NYC airport locations, you can read into that what you like.) I finally got sick of it to the point where I matched myself to National Exec Elite and have been using them of late, and I gotta say, the service has been superb thus far. In my last two rentals, one I landed in EWR and the entire Emeral Exec Aisle was Maximas, Avalons and Yukons, I drove a brand new well-appointed Avalon with 6 miles on it, the second rental was in MIA, the Emerald Exec Aisle was mostly empty, so with very little pushing, I got the attendant to give me a free upgrade into the Camaro Convertible that they had parked there for the upsell. In both cases I only made for a midsize!+1 Hertz is now terrible
So to those trying to match in the other direction, I would be wary.

W/ ur executive status u have access to the emerald aisle if the location u r renting from has one and u chose that option. The aisle has tons of cars and u can chose any one at the midsize rate. No guarantees of what will b on lot. It's first come first serve.
If there isnt an emerald aisle just rent the midsize and ur gauranteed a one car class upgrade (full size) at same rate..

I've never heard that rule before and maybe it's exclusive to LGA. I have rented from national many times in the past w/o issue.i rented a 300c in Maui and a Rogue at LGA a few months ago. They took the car away initially from me but after some threats to call corporate they brought it back. However once getting it it smelled like urine and smoke and I didn't have the patience to deal with their management again. Last time I rent from national at LGA.
Post by: Dr Moose on November 25, 2015, 07:43:08 PM
I just went to pick up a car from Nationa at LGA and had a whole ordeal renting from the executive aisle since I'm under 25. I picked up a 300c from the aisle bc with executive status and the free days I've always been able to take wtvr I wanted from the aisle. When I got to the gate I was interrogated and told under 25 I'm limited to a Chevy Malibu or standard size car. (Yes I use a corporate code which waives underage as well)Sounds about right. LGA started enforcing the under 25 rule.

They showed me the new policy and I looked it over quickly. Officially in their policy as long as u are coming from a flight or driving to airport for a flight u can rent anything off the aisle even under 25. After pointing that out they brought the car back and didn't want to deal w/ corporate.

Yes it's in Long Island. Like a 45min drive from queens/wh....
No, was not given on purpose. The manager tried getting them to clean it for me when I complained but a 5 min cleaning is def not enough to get those smells to go away.

I have never rented from national, but have a reservation coming up. I looked in my profile and my birth year I put in wrong when I signed up :o :oI've had the wrong dob for just under a year, no one ever mentioned anything to me. Although I imagine if they were trying to find a reason to void out a contract that may be an issue.

Hi, I'm an Emerald club member and I can get an intermediate SUV for 219 in FLL by Enterprise or Emerald Aisle by National for 229 (intermediate SUV is 372), which one should I take? Meaning, is it likely for me to be able to get an SUV in the Emerald Aisle? Is it worth the extra $10? I am 23 and most likely wouldn't want to drive a full size SUV.
Emerald aisle is hit or miss. Sometimes there are SUVs and sometimes there aren't. So if you really need an SUV I'd say it's worth the $10.

Thanks! Enterprise is actually $10 cheaper. Was just wondering if there are any other benefits for renting at National.Check out the thread on FT that updates the cars at national Fll. Seems to be pretty well stocked normally..
Also, I'd imagine the rate you have at enterprise is not pre-paid..? Then you can check out the national lot to see what they have, its nearby.

And if you would want to pay for an upgrade, National is cheaper per day for that upgrade.

If I have two free day coupons saved in my account, can I apply it to the rental when I return the car? I would do that so that my credit card would cover the rental if something were to happen. Its a 4 day rental.
Your credit card will still be charged. Don't think it's simple to apply them upon returning the car.

Q: What action is required on my part?
A: Members residing in Argentina, Australia, Austria, Belgium, Chile, Costa Rica, Denmark, Germany, Italy, Mexico, Portugal, Sweden, Switzerland and the United Kingdom must explicitly consent to the revised version of the Agreement in order to be bound by it.

A: We modified the terms and conditions to improve the services or reflect the business needs of the Emerald Club program, to provide additional clarification, and to comply with legal requirements.
Q: Have you taken any benefits away?
A: No we haven’t changed your membership level or how you achieve membership tier status. You will keep all of your rental credits, and the way you earn credits and redeem free days stays the same.

Q: My corporate travel manager wants to know how, if at all, these revisions will impact our corporate agreement.
A: Corporate agreements are not mentioned in this document. Each corporate agreement should be considered independently. If you or your travel manager feels there is a conflict, you should direct any questions to your legal team.
Q: Why is the agreement so long?
A: The length of the agreement is due to the master rental agreement language which must include all of the vehicle rental disclosure requirements for most of the fifty states in the United States, Canada, Belgium, Costa Rica, France, Germany, Ireland, Italy, Netherlands, Spain, Switzerland and the United Kingdom.
Sounds like they can now remove corporate codes from your reservation. Or at least, prevent you from using them on future reservations.

Amex platThat just gives executive. United Club gives Hertz PC, which can be matched to National EE.

Post by: yelped on January 12, 2016, 05:32:41 PM
Nice. That's a great way to eliminate the underage if one is over 25.Nope. In that case the underage spouse is not allowed to drive. No matter what the agent at the desk says. I rented with Avis once and agent said spouses could drive no matter what. I read through the rental agreement and it said clearly that spouses are only added on as an additional driver if they are over 25. Under 25 they have to be added on and will incure underage fees.
If this is different by other rental companies let me know.

All rental places in America don't require to put spouse on a rental. It is included in the renter.Is that correct? Even without being on the contract?
IINM Most companies will waive the additional driver fee for spouses, but they still require them to be on the contract.

B. Emerald Club Program1. Eligibility: Because of the nature of the services offered in the Program, you must be at least twenty-one (21) years old to enroll as a Member. If you are not twenty-one (21) or over, you cannot enroll in the Program, and Administrator will reject your application.

Aisle is an Airport thing.
As EE they are usually willing to give nicer cars pending availability.

i heard that national at LGA fired the manager Joel Roth for doing to much tricks...Happened earlier last week. A couple managers were fired. It's a regional move to:
A) Restrict under 25 getting more than a Full size
B) Raise prices on suv's
Also, last week at JFK, manager asked if I'm local or flew in. Seems that if you're local they aren't required to give you a full size.

The price of a one way rental from montreal to ny is showing for 51$ why in the world is it so cheap an average company charges between 200-300$, and do you need proof to be part of the jewish comunity code?
What is the code for Jewish Community?

At first no issues as it was covered under policy but after some time they said I would have to pay as they contacted company and I did not have employment there - Have you any experience with a situation like this. They are asking me for $2900 in damages and have put me on a no rent list in the meanwhile.

How could you be covered under policy when you were using a code for a company you don't work for? You didn't seriously think Siemens would say, sure pay for the damage for this non employee who utilized our corporate code with insurance.

With out proof you cant take out a car under the Honeywell contract. the nasty manager explained to me that its because this ID is very sensitive.

Realistically, as you may know ,there are codes out there which can be used here and there, for him and shim to move on to get much better rates, and far off from their quoted online suggest cost.

I'm not minding that you're asking.. (I would try to say thousand range or so.)Realistically speaking, national price will be $900-$1300, or more, depending on which code you use. Figure at least $2000 for 2 months even with the best codes available.

Is your EC number on the reservation? If it is then shouldn't be a problem. If it's not you'll have to go to the counter or perhaps call and ask for it to be added.

Yes.Won't be able to get a minivan from any of the big companies. Probably the same with the smaller ones.
What about a Heimish company?
For an additional driver, that could work*. Just make sure to use a corporate code that waives underage and gives free additional driver.
*My one experience with a similar situation was before I turned 25, I had a reservation with Enterprise in Brooklyn for a premium car. When I got there the agent said he can't give me a premium since I'm under 25.
I asked him if he can switch the reservation to have DW (over 25) as the main driver, and have me be secondary.
He said that would work, as spouses can drive for free as secondary without him adding anything to the rental.
Not sure if him adding me to the rental would've not allowed him to give us the premium.

Unable to rent two cars regardless if there are additional drivers.
National confirms they allow this and I've done this quite a few times. Which location was this?
Sidenote..You MUST be in the car physically for both rentals upon pickup. You cannot just add AU and let them try to check the car out without you being in it. I'm guessing this is where you went afoul.
Here's what I do. Pick up 1st car with AU in passenger seat next to me. Check out at the gate and drive back around to the front entrance allowing the AU to take control of the car from there. Pickup second car. Try to go to a different booth to avoid confusion. No problem the few times I've done it.

National confirms they allow this and I've done this quite a few times. Which location was this?That part is obvious. They'll never allow an additional driver to pull out of the lot. I don't have personal experience with trying though.

You must be the exception to the rule, I've had personal experience with unsuccessfully taking out 2 vehicles. I've also heard quite the stories of people who tried circumventing the system by pulling out two cars.

Were you able to book it and at the reservation they said no or you couldn't book itWas able to book multiple cars. Picked up 1st car with AU in passenger seat next to me. Checked out at a national location. Drove to a second National location. Picked up second car. First location called and requested to return one of the cars because the rule is you can only get one car.

Odd. How would the first location even know the second location reservation system. You still haven't mentioned the location/locations? Wondering if they were corporate or franchised.
Other's have had success so it isn't just me. National customer service also confirmed you can have more than one car out at the same time, though I would never try more than 2 at once.
The only other thing I can think of which might be a factor is possibly insurance? I've had full insurance on the cars when I've done it.

It's not hard coded to not allow you to rent. It's up to the agent to allow you to leave the lot with another car or not.Are you sure it's even hard coded to show up that you have a different car?

Sometime in August, National at JFK updated their underage policy to only allow economy - fullsize.I was told about that policy from multiple agents and supervisors there for the past 2 years (and none would let me out with larger). Could be they weren't always so strict on enforcing it though.

Starting to rent about twice a month for work and I'd like to use the same agency consistently to build up points/status whatever. I have Exec status with National through Amex. The prices of Avis seem to be usually cheaper but how about their points and rewards compared to National? Or other agencies for that matter? Open to advice and opinions. Thanks!Depends on length of rentals. If they're short term (1-2 days) then use National (free days); if long term (4+) use Hertz (points)

Also, would they allow a spouse or business associate to pick up the car without me being there? TIAdont know about the first one but for the second question the answer is no the primary renter must be there to pick up the rental

Problem with waving the underage fee or getting a better car?Getting a better car. There were full size SUVs in the lot. But they wouldn't let anything over a full size car

Post by: Abebee on January 04, 2017, 08:32:12 PM
Anybody know?Never seen LGA. But JFK has like 2 rows for emerald and 2 rows executive. IMO it's all luck, someone could have just taken/ return the car you wanted.

Oh wow. This was with asking?I saw the couple get in the Corvette so I asked what's them how much is it per day? He said he reserved a mustang and when he was at the desk( this was 2am so you first have to go to desk before going to aisle) she offered it at no extra charge.
So when she was walking us to the aisle I asked what other nice cars she has, so she said only thing she has left is the Maserati and she said she'd gladly give it to me
Forgot to mention that when I declined the offer she said that's a first! And told me I can bring the van back in empty

This code works to waive under age fee, but it says 40c per mile driven.Look for a button that says "rate options" (or something like that). There is usually a higher daily rate that includes unlimited mileage (which doesn't matter since the coupon covers the entire daily rate).

Aha. Is the treatment significantly preferential for elites over executives? I'm working towards elite but don't rent often enough.Not really. It all depends on the agent, whether or not you get an upgrade. I have never really pushed, as it really doesnt matter too much to me. On the occasions where i have asked, most of the times i have gotten something different. IE. convertable BMW 3 series, Infiniti q 50, lincoln nav, x3, etc.. but im a big guy, and for me the chrysler 300 works well. Its powerful, roomy, and gets pretty good gas mileage.

I'd be using a free day that covers one-way, but my preferred pickup location says no vehicles available for one-way rental on my dates (it is available for round-trip though so that's BS). Additionally, other nearby locations that do allow a one-way are blocking certain car sizes (anything larger then Full Size).
I tried calling once before I had the car and they weren't able to change it (same situation). Didn't end up needing that rental so don't know what would've happened if I tried after..
Post by: Alexsei on April 03, 2017, 05:03:28 PM
Anyone ever make a rental for round-trip dropoff, then call to switch it to a one-way while they have the car?If you can book one way with a regular cash rate you can call in later to apply free day

Additionally, other nearby locations that do allow a one-way are blocking certain car sizes (anything larger then Full Size).
I tried calling once before I had the car and they weren't able to change it (same situation). Didn't end up needing that rental so don't know what would've happened if I tried after..
Sometimes they block OW only when using Free day

So how do I reserve a minivan with them? I don't see an option online. I'm very new at the rentals thing. Thanks!they should have the option of minivans online, maybe for the dates your trying to book they are sold out of minivans in that location, maybe try calling them and ask
update: i just tried and they do have minivans in lga, so probably the dates u need are sold out

It was round trip and it's not available indeed. I ended up reserving Alamo for a minivan from Next Sunday for a week for $604. Last minute, I know, but ridiculous. Search online and you will find pretty much all others for $1,500...
Anyone has any better suggestion for me? I do need it for the morning already. Thanks!

1)Do rentals with 1-2free day coupons count for rental day credits towards free days?
I think it doesn't but you can call in after returning the car to apply the free day (some reps will let you some won't but don't say it's a free day just say I want to apply a coupon to a previous rental)

Post by: yellowj on June 11, 2017, 09:52:37 PM

Premium gives you access to the Aisle and the Emerald Reserve spots for Premium, FullSize, Midsize, Compact & Economy. Don't mind the app not displaying it.
BTW, careful when choosing premium in that screenshot as it will take you to the fullsize pricing if your a executive member. The fullsize pricing looks to be quite a bit higher. Choose luxury if available or call National to book the reservation. They can force the Premium price to lock out the Executive "one class lower" benefit.

Had big issues with Honeywell in yul earlier this week. The guy said he already had 3 people earlier that day that admitted that they didn't really work for honeywell. He was giving some nasty attitude but he backed down when I stuck to my story. Still had to change the reservation though.

Anyone know if I can add a free day onto an existing rental and take it one way? For example if I rent for one day to return to the same place, can I extend it mid-rental with a one way eligible free day?
You can call in after the rental to apply a free day.
You can call in middle of a rental to change the return location, except one-ways to canada (or canada to the us) where you'll have to call the branch.
If you change a rental to a one-way, it'll reprice the whole rental not only the last day

Since Enterprise doesn't really upgrade National Execs in the US, why do you think LHR will be any different. Expect to drive the class you booked.

Any reason why a National rental in Miami for 1 day would be $169 + fees for a midsize, whereas Enterprise is $35 + fees? I was a Sapphire Reserve, and would like to take advantage of the status, but obviously, not at that price!Is the renter underage?

Quote
How do I earn credits?
If your rental is 1 - 7 calendar days, you will be rewarded 1 credit
If your rental is 8 or more days, National rewards you even further by dividing your total rental days by 4. This means:
At 8 rental days you earn 2 credits
At 12 rental days you earn 3 credits.

The main difference is 1,2 free days expire in June and are only good for up to a fullsize car. Both are good for one way rentals, except in places which restrict coupon use (Manhattan).

For regular free days, you need to call CS and have them transfer it to the other person (takes a few days to process). What they essentially do is convert the day into a code and then email the code.

For regular free day, once converted to a code the expiry can't be extended like the free day could (book cancel)?

Need to rent at IAD on 6/11 for 1 day but not showing any availability except for a pickup and minivan for $100. When I search for 2 days everything is available for $50 per day. If I rent for 2 and drop-off after 1 will I still be charged for 2 days?
Happens all the time where they don't want to deal with 1 day people. Sometimes I've seen even 3 or 4 days is not available, only longer periods.
IME, you should have no problem bringing back and getting credit for that day.

Is there any new way to get Elite status? That AMEX offer says it expired in Jan.
I just used this to get executive. 1 step closer anyway.

Just click on enroll now and then login your account. It will make AMEX your preferred contract rate, but you can change that back later.

Picked up a BMW today. USE THE APP to checkout! They have a new self-checkout feature. You find your car, follow the prompts on the app to scan the car into your reservation and you are done. You have to show the gate the barcode on the app and they scan it and verify your drivers license. 2 seconds and done. I was using a different code today, not the one I posted, but I spent a total of 10seconds at the gate. They scanned the code on my phone and then just glimpsed over my ID and opened the gate. For you folks playing with codes, make sure you have everything you need online. Your CC, license, status helps, and you will be one and done.
This was in Boston, this morning. BTW, I didn't like the selection this morning and told the dude in the National section that I was Executive Elite and wanted something different. He asked what I wanted, I told him a BMW 3 series. He went to Alamo or Enterprise and grabbed one for me. Legit!
Good luck folks!

In LGA they refused to let me use the Honeywell code unless I showed a Honeywell ID. It ended up tripling the price of the reservation. Any ideas on how to argue after the fact to refund some of it. As I needed the car for a short visit and didn't have the time to pull up other codes or rent with another company.
What is there to argue? Either you have a Honeywell ID or you don't. You accepted the terms of the rental, when you drove off the lot after they removed the Honeywell and repriced the car at the going rate.

Any1 have any idea what "subject to audit" on final price item line means?, Just closed out a rental.
i never pay attention that it says that,but probably just means they are reserving right to readjust if something is messed up in the calculations or maybe the car is damaged. Dont think you need to be concerned.

It means they reserve the right to go back and alter your final total based on a few factors. This can go either way, whether them noticing damage/excessive dirt resulting in additional charges or them overcharging you resulting in a refund.

Post by: KSMH on January 15, 2020, 10:17:53 AM
Midsize & upYMMV
Post by: Abebee on January 15, 2020, 10:23:19 AM
YMMVWhy not just reserve the first option (emerald aisle)
Post by: shmulik990 on January 15, 2020, 02:26:59 PM
Why not just reserve the first option (emerald aisle)Well believe it or not the cheapest option was luxury car. But it doesnt say that i get emerald aisle, so i was wondering.

Well believe it or not the cheapest option was luxury car. But it doesnt say that i get emerald aisle, so i was wondering.Anything above mid-size gets Emerald Aisle. Says so clearly in their terms. So sometimes you can save money this way. Their website has been buggy for years.

In terms of car selection, it looks like there is no difference between Executive and Executive Elite.That's correct! If you speak up to the agent and ask for something that not in the aisle and say you are EE it might work.
YMMV

In some locations after weekends the lots are jammed and you'll find anything you can think of.
What happens in JFK if you just hop into one of the cars in the upgrade section and try to drive out? Are the keys even in the car?Yes, they sometimes call the check out agent and tell them to charge you the upgrade fee

I have a reservation for a luxury car. It was actually the cheapest option. Anyway, I want one of the large luxury suv's i.e. qx80 or escalade. So my question is, assuming they wont have that in the aisle, can I get that anyway because i reserved luxury? Or will they tell me those are a different class?Thats a different glass, those are full size SUV and higher.

The same goes for all the real expensive luxury cars, they told me the only way they will rent it to you without the copy of your insurance is if the car is in the isle.

Post by: KSMH on January 28, 2020, 02:31:04 PM
Reserved a luxury car from JFK. When I got there, there were no luxury cars in the lot at all, except for an Escalade that they claimed wasn't working properly. The manager offered to bring in a car from Enterprise. I ended up taking out a Tahoe. Two questions.
1) If the Escalade had engine problems, would they actually put it in the customer parking lot, or were they lying to me?
2) Any use putting in a complaint that I didn't get a luxury car which I reserved?
1) If the Escalade had engine problems, would they actually put it in the customer parking lot, or were they lying to me? Possibly and most likely.
2) Any use putting in a complaint that I didn't get a luxury car which I reserved? try getting a refund for partial payment.

A. They practically are transferable? You can reserve the rental under someone else's name?
B. If AH has EE status, does that allow renter to choose from aisle even if renter takes larger than full-size?

I don't understand, how do you "reserve aisle"? The price only comes out as free when choosing full size and under. I don't see anything about choosing via the aisle ??? (I do have EE status and just tried, basing off that)

Reserve Mid Size / Full Size. At airport locations, that means Aisle (some times it will say so explicitly online, other times not).
Where did you hear that its not for 1 ways? It should let you select a rental as such online.
I don't know if it's still the case, but they used to show multiple daily rates on one ways. A cheaper daily rate with extra charge per mile, and a much more expensive daily rate with unlimited miles included.
Always double check that your rate includes unlimited miles..

If you are using free days then correct.
There are two types of free days, 2>1 and thru rentals...
A. The 1-2 Free days are stored in form of a coupon code, so anybody can use the coupon code to reserve out of their own account.I believe they allow some type of transfer up to 3 per account.
B. Renter can take whatever they are eligible for. If reserving Aisle, then whatever is in the Aisle.
Not according to the T&C.
"Emerald Club members can transfer 3 free days per year to an immediate family member. Immediate family members include any family member that has your same address. To request a free day transfer, visit our Member Services Contact Us Page, by clicking here, for location specific contact information."

The regular ones are indeed transferable, up to 3 per year. Those sell for much more then 1-2- Free, as they have much better class availability (if status account) and expiration.

1-2- free doesn’t waive ow rental fee when you utilize with enterprise.That’s because it’s billed as a separate 1 way drop fee, not part of the daily rate.
National doesn’t either waive it, if it gets billed as a one way fee / charge per mile (instead of the “unlimited miles included” one way daily rate.
