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

[Cumzilla]

just like to know if the credit card can be used together with the petrol station card for SHELL? I was thinking if i only use credit card for payment just to enjoy the 3% rebate, how am i going to get the 6% discount and also the escape points by using the shell card?

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!

 

I agree but Shell is nearest to my home and office

==> Equivalent to $937.50 of petrol

Shell . Not worth to pump Shell!

 

With HSBC Card, $10 Caltex redemption for every 1900 - 2000 pts.

==> $1 = 1 pt or 2 pts (during promo)

 

With OCBC Card, $20 Shell/SPC redemption for every 4400 pts

==> Currently am getting 2 pts = $1 spend

I'll just go with Caltex and OCBC or HSBC. Titanium OCBC gives good rewards (have redeemed many $50 vouchers for use at shopping malls - these are preferred as they can be used as "cash" even when shops in the mall are having promos).

 

Coupled with the good Caltex points system, it's good enough for me.
