Caltex Starcard - 10 000 points to sign up

I saw this and will probably apply, i just sent them a message enquiring about if it works at Woolworths Caltex servos or just Caltex servos and does it work with any Woolworth discount vouchers etc.. Dunno if anyone here knows the answers?

I asked a similar question and was told only the star card discount could be applied. IE can not apply any other discount and then charge to star card.

However, I suspect there is a possibility this might not be correct. I get a discount through driving for Uber and one of the station workers told me the system does not have the ability to stop multiple discounts currently. I can get my 5c per litre Uber discount and then get a further discount through Woolworths Rewards.

Hmmm, thanks NoName, i guess it might be worth a try to see how it goes, without ever having had a Star Card account I don't know if purchases appear straight away and say could try buying $5 of petrol and use a Woolies voucher and see if it cancels the transaction out etc??

But yes Caltex responded and said no can do re Woolies discount vouchers...

Pity because I often use Caltex Woolies servos because they always seem cheaper than Shell servos except the odd times Flybuys has a offer for 10 cents off fuel at Shell servos which when linked with a 4 cent Coles voucher is a pretty handy 14 cents/litre off... When i get those offers Coles becomes the go to...

But may have to take a slight hit to get the 50k QFF points...

Last time round it worked at all types of Caltex
Unable to double dip with WW (or Myer) then

Pulled the trigger at lunch time and signed up. One of the easier chunks of 50k QFF pts earned I suspect.

Approval email came through from Caltex so will be good to go when the card arrives.

Linked the account number to my business rewards account. Also noticed my previous card is still linked even though it was canceled at least 18 months ago (confirmed by Caltex). Not that it should matter but anyone know how to unlink the old card at all?

Went through identical process yesterday with Caltex Agent on phone and she was clueless about unlinking previous card - TBH Caltex really are a cowboy oiutfit in this regard but that is good as we don't want them being too savvy or opps might disappear.

New star card arrived today. Nice quick process so far with this one. Here’s hoping that extends to the awarding of bonus points!

Anyone get a response after sending off their deed (if a company or trust)? I am not sure if it's in the pile being processed or if I should be expecting a card soon...

I got an email response a few days later and then the card a few days after that.

First fill yesterday swipe, pin and away you go.

Only thing I'm unsure about is when does the first month (for the min $150) start? From first transaction, when card is issued or accepted?

I think it will be based Caltex Monthly statement , statement start when the cards is issued or activated

I have received my first statement ending in 31 JAN due date 14 FEB , is everyone received the same ?

Can now confirm that no other discount can be applied. Once your other discount is applied - in my case Uber & in a different occasion Woolworths voucher - the payment failed when I swiped my Star Card.

I will only use this card for the first $150 of petrol each month as other discounts means I can get it cheaper anyway.

ok so best to wait till March to apply and have all of March to get that $150 and the next 4 months after that??

Up to you mate - process starts when card used first and transaction processed - I actually made 1st purchase Jan 31 but transaction not processed until Feb 1 - a 2nd transaction on Feb 2 got me over the $150 mark - now we wait til Mar 1 to go again

I'm still waiting for credit check to complete, it's been 12 days so far. I suspect they are a little overwhelmed?

Me too. Was unintentionally perfect timing. One more tank of petrol this weekend and that will take me above the $150 mark then cue in the rack until next month. Rinse and repeat.
