Shell Citi VISA Credit Card: a review

Overview
With the new Shell Citi VISA, you get the HIGHEST fuel rebate in the market.

5% rebate on Shell fuel purchases at participating Shell Stations.

Plus, enjoy these exclusive benefits:
  • 0.5% rebate on non-fuel purchases.
  • 24-Hour Nationwide Emergency Roadside Assistance for emergency towing service and minor on-site repair assistance through International SOS at 632-7000.
  • Discounts at Shell Helix Service Center.
Travel Inconvenience Protection
If you charge the full cost of travel to your Shell Citi Classic VISA, you can get the following:
  • Missed/Delayed flight Protection – Up to a maximum of P7,000 (traveling alone).
  • Delayed Luggage Protection – Up to a maximum of P7,000 (traveling alone).
  • Lost Luggage Protection – Up to a Maximum of P21,000 (traveling alone).
My Personal Review:
With the soaring prices in fuel, saving more than P2 per liter is quite of help. I give this card 8/10.

I don't really see any negative side on this card type, only that the 3.5% interest rate Citibank charges can now be deemed too much with the emergence of Eastwest Bank's 2.25% or the PSBank's 2.5% rate per month.
