3% rebate from Shell + chance to win $500 petrol vouchers

[Atlantis80]

forget about shell and the lousy 3% rebate.

go for those that offer you direct 5% discount!

[Rodmansakura]

i still prefer the Citibank dividend platinum, 5% cash rebate on transaction price

i only pump about $250 each, getting back about $12.50 per mth

[Cheekg98]

ocbc and hsbc still the best ... 5% rebate upfront for caltex petrol

[Vblaster_w211]

Shell moved from OCBC to UOB. OCBC has moved to Caltex with 5% discount. Not sure what Shell has now.

 

Caltex also stopped their promo with HSBC since their new tie up with Shell.

 

It's a bloody musical chair!

[Cheekg98]

i can still use hsbc at caltex ...

[Vblaster_w211]

Thought they stopped with HSBC? Notices outside Caltex for HSBC have been changed to OCBC.

[Cheekg98]

HSBC still ongoing ... asked the cashier that day...

[Vblaster_w211]

OK, so 2 cards ongoing. But Caltex is definitely pushing OCBC more with notices outside.

 

Just like Shell, for a while going with OCBC and UOB. But soon, OCBC's no more with them. Like I said, musical chairs.

Let me guess here. Any marketing campaign that bang on consumers' gambling instints to entice them to bet on lucky draw is not a sincere campaign but one that tries to maximise maximal profit. This is evident of tha fact that oil companies are making record profit even as the crude oil prices are increasing. The explanation that they have to pass the cost to consumers DO NOT HOLD WATER HERE but JUST A MERE EXCUSE to make more money. The essence of competiton do not really exist amongst the few competing oil companies as they are truely funtioning like what every economics teck book describe them to be a CARTEL. True competition truly benefits the customer at the end of the day not the oil companies themselves with record profits!!!!

lousy Shell, last time I get $1 smart dollor for every $30. Now with the 3% rebate, the $30 is only giving me $0.90

 

Also, remember that the Shell point is 1 point for every 1 litre petrol vs some co like caltex who give 1 point for every dollar spend.

 

Also, I just realised that now you need 700 (previously I recall is 600)points to exchange for $20 dollar petrol and 1350 (previously I recall is 1000) points for $40 petrol.

 

 

Shell ESCAPE redemption is the least attractive amongst all

 

Let's put the price of pettrol at $1.50 a litre for 95RON.

 

Shell: 350 points = $10 petrol voucher

 

1 litre of petrol pumped ($1.50) = 1 point

 

So you need to spend $525.00 before you can redeem for $10 petrol voucher with Shell

 

 

But with Caltex, you get 1 point for every $1 of petrol pumped.

 

So I need to pump just $300.00 of petrol to redeem for $10 petrol voucher.

 

 

For Esso, you get 1 point for every $1.25 of petrol pumped.

 

You can redeem for $30 petrol voucher with just a mere 750 points

 

 

 

You do your sums and tell me which is more worth it?

 

Shell . Not worth to pump Shell!

tat time shell also display ocbc when customer can use both ocbc and uob card at shell...

[Kaer]

Quit using UOB since the smart$ decrease. Citibank dividend straight off 5%. Is there other cards higher than this?

[Spinworkx]

Citibank Dividend got 5% meh? I thought all along only 2%?

[Vit4wd]

Citibank Dividend PLATINUM 5% rebate on nett price after discounts.

[Kaer]

Paiseh, I missed out Platinum.

[Cheekg98]

but shell loyalty point sucks

[Godspeed]

any idea which petrol got the most discount

[Cheekg98]

citibank gives dividend platinum card to anyone who qualifies for a credit card
