Title: Esso petrol discount
Post by: GTS on May 13, 2008, 12:23:06 AM
Hi,

Can I check whether using the Citibank Dividend card at Esso entitles us to a total discount of 8% + 5% (station discount)?

Thanks.

I think it's 5% Station discount  + 3% card rebate leh..

it is 5% (station) + 5% (rebate) + 3% (citi promo with esso)

so let's say u pump $100... you pay $95.. you get back $95 * 0.05 as you dividened rebate and you get back $95*0.03 deduction off your credit bill also.

Oh man.. I din noe.. Wasted this good % for a few months liao.. So I guess Esso currently gives the best discount. Shall go pump at Esso now instead of Caltex which only gives 10% discount.

I think cannot use the dividend card... so no extra 5%...

See citibank... http://www.citibank.com.sg/SGGCB/APPS/portal/loadPage.do?tabId=Credit%20Cards&path=/prod/det/cc_xx_ess.htm

Means we got to show Smiles and privilege card?

Station is giving 5% and Smiles card (got discount or not), then Privilege another 3%? =8% only.

Am I wrong?

Tiger DBS card can give me 10% (i think)  :confused1: :confused1: :confused1:

Oh... then I'm mistaken then... so we're entitled to 13% just by using Citibank Dividend's card?

Oh. I shall go and ask at Esso if I use the Dividened Card. 13%  :yehyeh:

josho... can let us know after you ask Esso? Think if really 13% mi going to pump esso instead too... hehe...

i have been pumping with ESSO + dividend card for last 4 pumps

Yes confirmed. Citibank DIV gives u additional 5% rebate on the balance of the bill after station 5% discount. So actually, you get slightly < 10% in all.

For Esso, better to use DBS Esso Card, get immediate 10% off bill. Don't need to wait for rebate cheq.  ;D

5% off $10 = $0.50
Bill = $9.50
5% rebate on $9.50 = $0.475

Total discount = $0.975 = 9.75% discount!  ;)

on top of 9.75%, there's an additional 3% rebate tat will be reflected on ur credit card bill. so its 12+%.  ;)

your additiona 3% off your credit card bill will comes in abt 1 or 2 mths time... slight delay... think the addtional 3% promo only started around march.. if you pump esso think shld be able to see the advertisement abv the pump... heehee

only have station 5% if you got the smiles card... got to use it together with citi dividened to get 5 + 5 + 3...  :thumbsup:

I don't think there is any additional 3% after getting 5 + 5 on Dividend Card. I believe you are referring to the + 3% for the Esso Mobil Privilege Card by CitiBank? Normally, they will not overlap credit card benefits.

Quote from Citibank site "You will get an additional 3% discount on Synergy fuel ON TOP OF the prevailing station discount, or a minimum discount of 6% *, whichever is higher.

If the prevailing station is offering 10% discount, you will enjoy 13% discount on Synergy fuel when you use your Esso Mobil Privilege Card. When the station is offering Synergy fuel discounts less than 6%, you will still enjoy a minimum of 6% discount."

More info here: http://www.citibank.com.sg/SGGCB/APPS/portal/loadPage.do?tabId=Credit%20Cards&path=/prod/det/cc_xx_ess.htm

We can't use both Div & the Priviledge card together anyway.

went to pump esso today.

Citi did have 3% discount but I didn't listen properly when the cashier told me the promo will stop end of mth. What she told me is 8%, 5+3. I guessed that she didn't know I had smiles card. So 13% should be there but had to rebate when bill come. (I hope I am right...)

Using Esso is straight 10% discount from the Esso.

dividend dollar 5% on remaining purchase made <- on other items or from esso? Or just petrol only?
