My FC getting worse.......help!!

[Jo_Lee]

How does ur discount works? If u pump $50 and get  station discount of 5%, then u pay $47.5. Then citibank gives u another 8% discount on $47.5 tat was charged to the card, so the final amt tat u pay is $43.7?

If it is 13% of $50, then u pay $43.5 right? So which discount u get?

 

u pay $46.08 1st which is after 3% rebate from the statement...the 5% rebate of $2.38 will be refunded to u
when u hv accumulated $50 of rebates..thats mean u get $50 worth of petrol which cost u only $43.70.

Hm.m.m.m....does this means tat u get more than 13% discount for a normal pump? I have discount card tat can get me 14% at caltex for normal pump...

i also hv 14% discount from caltex..but the area i stay doesnt hv any caltex station..i hv to travel out of my
area juz to enjoy another 1% discount on caltex which i find is not very worth.

Think FC is really dependent on how u drive...my last tank gave me 13.3...but previous tank 13.7....my guess is the last tank was mostly driven by my hubby....and the previous tank by me....will try to be more light footed on the gas and see if this tank improves back...

Haha, we seem to be going off topic from "My FC getting worse.......help!!" liao =)

Mileage is also dependent upon outdoor temperature.


The lower the temperature, the more economical.

let me finish my tank first. coz i just change to shell, use to use caltex b4 shell.
my friend tell me got to keep changing brand after 3 tank, see which 1 give u better FC.
for caltex i got 12-14. hope shell can give me more, coz this is my 2nd tank. later try other.

i used esso/mobil initially... changed to caltex which gives me better mileage :)

Caltex not worth.

Caltex
1 litre ($1.90+) = 1 point
1400 points = $40 petrol voucher


Esso
$1.25 = 1 point
750 points = $30 petrol voucher


You save an extra 3% $$$ with Esso.

i got 12% discount with esso(no rewards points)... 16% with caltex(with rewards points). so more sense for me to stick to caltex

[arias48]

In summary, which card give which petrol with more $$$ discount?

Citibank Dividend credit card on Esso as quoted by clarence?

"It is a 13% discount if you pay for your Esso petrol using Citibank Dividend credit card.
5% station discount and 8% Citibank rebate. Plus another 3% discount when you redeem 750 Esso Smiles points for $30 petrol voucher."

[clarence]

If you work in certain govt sector, like Temasek Holdings, you get to enjoy a corporate 16% discount card with Caltex.

For those unable to enjoy this benefit, Citibank Platinum Dividend Master Card is the next best alternative to allow to enjoy 13% discount at Esso, PLUS a further 3% rebate when you exchange 750 'Smiles' points for a $30 petrol voucher.

The 5% station discount is applicable for the $30 petrol voucher too.

3 Cheers to Esso!!!

Clarence, how do I get to enjoy Esso 'Smiles' points? Separate card is required?

[clarence]

Yes, you can apply Smiles card for free to accumulate the points.

Instant collection.

the esso station i went to at aljunied road gave me $3 vouchers (i think they gave me 20) which each $3 can be used for every $50 pump

this is only top of the 5% + smiles + 8% dividend rebate
