Is there a Shell loyalty card? I think I'm averaging around 20mpg in my 2.5 WRX.
It's impossible to not floor it every other set of lights!!! Lol

 

yes. And it can be done

 

Good stuff!
This tank of fuel cost around £80 and I'll be lucky if I manage more than 250 miles lol
Too much late night driving

 

IIRC the shell card is pretty pants.

 

250 miles to a tank is ok

 

I use my Shell rewards card to fill my lorry everyday and use it when I filled my Subaru up. I was getting nearly £40-50 every few months off on petrol, which is basically free fuel for the week in my Subaru.

 

Jammy git! I work for the council and I fill the van up at the council depo so can't exploit it like that!

I have just got back from the local Shell station, got my new card all registered. I guess it's worth it cos it looks like I'll be emptying a tank every week.

 

I filled the scoob, family estate and my 3.5t tipper on the shell card, for most of last year, and got no more than £ 6 off a quarter, so you must have to put huge quantities in for it to be worth it. Tesco momentum is always 3 or 4p cheaper round here, and you get up to 20p off a litre with shopping; even if you shop £50 once a week you get 2p off

 

Oh how I wish I had a fuel card for Shell when I fill my truck. Saying that though, my points go to MacMillan anyway, but, it would be more to them.

Had a Shell car when I was at City Link, they didn't like it when I was filling my van with V-Power diesel.

 

 

Been using one for ages I do at least a tank a week 250 is average mate done 180 first week of ownership lol the card is pointless unless doing 2-3 tanks a week shell are too ****ing tight to share the wealth

 

Shell only let you have a maximum of 150 litres on the reward card, so what I do is I fill up with 150 litres in the morning and then drive to my destination drop off my load and then on the way back to the yard put another 150 litres in the tank.
When your putting near 1500 litres in the lorry a week and then putting 40-50 litres of V-power in the Subaru a week it all adds up(Subaru is now gone though)!!!

 

Crafty!



You'll be back in a Suabru soon, I'm sure.

 

I've never had anything back and I only use shell

 

the guy in the local shell garage gave me a free cream egg once .....

 

Used to do decent Ferrari merchandise, now its all Waitrose. Still if you only use V-power then you may as well have something for free.

 

Shell loyalty is quite cack. Have to spend a lot before its worth while. Not sure on the amounts though.

Better off with a store card, tesco 99 probably my fave.

 

I use it to collect BA air miles via Avios. Flew to US free last year with the family.

 

i've earn 20k points + in 10 yers of ownership,,, lol


o and get it forged and pushed to 450bhp and you wont have mpg issues

 

Did you register it online and choose the Shell petrol rewards and not donating the points to charity???

if you have then maybe worth contacting them by e-mail, I know a lad at work never had anything back after 6 months, and when he contacted he got his rewards sent through a couple of weeks later!!!

 

Yeah but how much do you spend on fuel in the wagon, if I remember rightly, I used to spend about one thousand a week in my wagon.

250 miles @ £1.39ltr doing 20mpg is £78.99. If you can manage to find a extra 2 mpg it will then cost you £71.81. If you stay at 20mpg but get the fuel 10p cheaper per ltr (£1.29) it will cost you £73.31.

In sort iam a sad **** for working it out (have a app) but basically, better mpg saves alot more money than 10p a ltr off fuel.

If you want to save money on your fuel bill finding cheaper fuel is a waste of time, the only real way to spend less on fuel is to get better mpg, or wait for fuel to drop below £1.

Look at it this way, at least you dont do a average mpg of 4 like my truck used to.

 

Think you don't get much back from your Shell card? Spare me a thought... 10 litres at a time going into a bike that gets 60mpg.

 

Same here

And imo better mpg.

 

Yeah you can easily spend a £1000 a week on diesel.

It was my company who gave us the loyalty cards so we could get the points for rewards, As we had open cards and could use any petrol station and now we can only use Shell garages for our diesel.
