Perhaps those are different than the DGs.

-1.
You can call to confirm they will work in advance and get a $0+tax total.

Basically, there's a number on the coupon to call for reservations, you give them all the info, plus the coupon codes and number of coupons being used. You can also call the regular listed reservation line, or preferred, presidents, etc.
If it's not valid for those dates (blackout, etc) then the reservation total will not include the coupons.
When you bring in the coupons is when the actual discount is applied. There generally should not be any issues for using them..

I will be in FLL in 2 weeks - anyone have experience using them there?
I believe I may have. However, the total is not going to be $0 because of high airport taxes and facility charges. It can be $7-8 a day, not sure exactly how much.

whenever I tried using a business rewards coupon over the phone, they always said can't apply the coupon until i bring it in
Meaning, the total should reflect the discount with the relevant coupon, but the actual discount is not applied until you actually hand in the coupons. (unlike other upgrade or $25 off weekend/weekly coupons, which are often paperless).

I'm aware now.
I was referring to DG certs where they will still email you a $0+ reservation.

Just make a dummy res and see what the facility charges are.
Percentage based taxes aren't owed.
