I think that Alamo would rather rent a car to someone who may use a questionable code than not rent one at all.
The statement comparing using those codes to companies allowing shoplifting- The company put the codes out there. If Wal Mart or Macy's put out a shelf of freebies or coupons, you can bet those would be snapped up too.
Alamo chooses to allow the codes, why get your knickers all bunched? When the company decides to discontinue the code, they will do that. It cracks me up that some people act like they are St. George defending the innocent little car rental companies from the big bad dragon consumers.
The best way to stop it if they chose to do so would be to require the TA number when making the reservation. If the number cannot be produced, then the reservation would not go through. It's not rocket science and if it truly caused them to lose business $$$, then they would implement something along these lines.
EXACTLY........I've been on this board for awhile, and its amazing the people that come on here just to argue their rightgeous ways. I like the St. George comment, LOL.
Alamo would not be in business too long if they 'lost money' on these codes. That does not take a business degree to figure out.
