My gf was using my work discount for a while pre-COVID through Avis w no issues. Then they implemented the verification. I have never been asked to show work ID. I think it’s hit or miss

I haven’t, no one has asked me to do so. If you don’t want to, tell the friend that the rental car agent will probably ask for proof that they work for your employer when they pick up the car so it’s too risky that they would be left stranded. Realistically the rental agents don’t ask, but when i make my reservations there is a blurb that i should be prepared to show proof of employment with this employer when i pick up the car.

I’ve only done it for my husband and haven’t had any issues. I wouldn’t really suggest giving it to a friend just in case they do happen to ask for verification.

I know Avis has recently implemented a verification process. Not sure about the others.

Help!! My bestfriend is doing two months abroad and was trying to fly into turkey when they told her she couldn't because her passport expired within three months.

She went to the US Embassay in Athens knowing she had a month left of traveling, and gave her an emergency passport and punched holes in her exsisting one. Now no country will let her in with her emergency passport.

Can her mom get her a passport in the US and ship it to her? Is there anyway around this?

Thank you!!
