Made a call to DBS to ask about this.

 

The T&Cs are not straightfoward. You only qualify for a discount based on how much to spend using the card in a month. Generally - the qualifying total rebate for the month is 1% of your total spending bill (petrol plus everything else).

 

So for E.g. I've a $250 a month petrol bill. And a spent $1,000 on the Amex. At 1% I only qualify for $10 rebate. Which works out to be 4%. If I really want to have a 10% discout ($25), I need to spend $2,500 on the Amex a month.

 

But if I only spend $500 on the Amex, I only qualify for $5. What is little more than 2%.

 

It's very much a sales gimmick to make you use the Amex more.

sorry to hear that. i think self censorship is one of singapore's greatest 'strengths'. forums also got OB markers yes? imposed by a sense of right and wrong by the ruling elites.

[Goldenvodka]

better stick with caltex 10% off straight with OCBC card

[Sstar]

using citibank divident card at Esso is better:

 

station discount 5%

3% rebate on next month bill

5% rebate at all petrol station, will mail check to you when divident reach $50.

 

All together around 13%.

I used this...SPC Card (think call SPU or something like that)...It offers 6% discount upwards depend on our prior month usage. Pay by Everyday Card..get additonal 5% rebate..which can be used for next usage of this card. Generally, I get 11 to 12% discount.
