Citi Dividend Petrol Cashback -- no $50, no 5% ?

[Timex1441]

 

Just realised the other day tat if i buy <$50 of petrol on my citi dividend card, i only get 0.5% cashback and not the 5% as i expected.

Anybody can verify this? (see the attached citibank chart's fine print at the bottom)

think there is another thread for this liao

 

in response to your question, wouldn't it be much more logical to call Citibank n ask?

What I understand is you charged your card for less than 50$ and you got only 0.5% discount (and not 5%) right? Have you tried to charge more than 50$ and found the d/c was 5%?

 

If yes, then they have implemented the rule of 50$!

 

Anyway, the other thread was quite active last few days, you join there!

This Dividend card is no longer the same as last time. They changed the rules

 

my suggestion is to cancel this card and got cards like DBS Esso which gives u straight discount. no need to calculate here and there. save your brain cells for more impt things.

Wow... How come your tank so small? what car is that?

[Jamstart]

Is the rule executed already? Thought I read somewhere saying it will start from August or something?

mazda2....fuel tank is abt 43L but there's a reserve of abt 8L....so at current petrol 95 prices, i estimated tat i need to pump 30+ L to enjoy the 5% cashback....

i think already started....their website never mentioned anything abt August leh....

Totally agree...discount on the spot makes more sense....
