Jackzhangxiao Neutral Newbie July 21, 2013 Share July 21, 2013 Since UOB is out of Shell and HSBC and citi came in, which is a better choice at Shell? just to round up: HSBC Visa: 10% (station) + 8% (rebate, need to spend 600+ every month, not necessary to be patrol) = FES 17.2% Citi Dividen: 10% (station) + 4% (cash rebate) + 4% (Dividen rebate min 50 spend in patrol) = FES 18.1% BUT!!!! for HSBC card, whenever you spend, like dining or shopping or NTUCing, S$5 = 1 escape point and fyi 600 points = 20 dollar shell voucher. very very complicated! why they cant just give discount when we pump. haiz... have been using Citi for months and now thinking to switch to HSBC. what.s your thought? ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mcf777 Turbocharged July 21, 2013 Share July 21, 2013 i think for this month only, if using HSBC to pay for the petrol, you get double SHELL points. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jackzhangxiao Neutral Newbie July 21, 2013 Author Share July 21, 2013 I just applied the card today and the sales guy didn't mention the 4 dollars to me. After some calculation, I still think the HSBC is worth a try so I will put my dividen into Leng Gong Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pplater 1st Gear July 21, 2013 Share July 21, 2013 so complicating. Gas men just want to confuse us. In the end I just kept pumping at the station nearest to me. That extra couple percentage discount didn't bring me to a further station. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RadX Moderator July 22, 2013 Share July 22, 2013 used SPC for 2 tanks and the overall FC was abt 10.5 km/l W V power i get 12.0 km/l so to me the extra 2% is not justifiable if i need to pump more over a shorter distance cf gg a longer distance with vpower. full tank gets me abt 700km and redlight district no come out yet ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
