I'm going to assume that you have to show a Costco membership card when you pick up your car if you use that discount. Anyone know for sure? I'd love to take advantage of it, but we don't have a Costco in my area so I couldn't really be a member even if I wanted to be!
Sorry, the sun pass is not required but if I get it from the rental company it's $9 per day. If I don't get if from the rental company and don't have one and I accidentally go through a toll without paying, there is a $75 admin fee for each toll. We don't have toll roads where I live, so I'm afraid I may go through an unmanned booth and get screwed. I think I'll just stop somewhere and buy a stick on one for $5. We are staying on Disney property but we will probably leave Disney for shopping and maybe a few meals.
I booked directly through alamo.com and entered both the Costco code and the Visa codes, sorry I can't recall which was the coupon code, which the contract ID, but try both ways. I even acknowledged I'm Canadian, not US, and the great pricing still came up. The best price directly through the Costco site for me right now is $220 USD, so this worked out much better. And Like booking through Costco, no prepayment.
I meticulously pay the tolls, I'm the passenger counting the money & handing it over as we approach the toll booths. However, last year, a month later, I noticed a charge with late fees added on my credit card which, after a few phone calls, found out there's this phantom, elusive, unmanned toll, not to be found which is supposed to be in the airport when I returned the car. The charge strangely said NYC with a phone number something or other, I called. It was some collection agency located at behold.... NYC. Typical, they said their duty is only to charge the fee. Me oh my..... I haven't seen anywhere with people complain about this.
I disputed this with my cc company and the fee was waived. This year I'll go with the sunpass. Yes, its a money maker for these people.
Curious you said the toll was at the airport. By the letter we received from Thrify, the 'missed toll' was called an 'airport toll' and would have occurred around the time were leaving the airport (MCO). My Sunpass record shows a toll 4 minutes after the 'alleged' infraction, on the 528 which went though. Hmmm.
