I work out the Public Bank Esso promotion tiered rates... if one spent RM1,000 on petrol in ESSO, the card user can get RM26.50 cash back based on the tiered-rate.... effectively 2.65% for such a high amount spent.
ReplyDeleteIf you only spend RM300 on petrol... ha ha.. cash back is only 1.17% or RM3.50 effectively.
Anyone can prove my calculation wrong?
