Esso Extra Privileges fuel discount requirements are ridiculous
Hi everyone,
I haven't posted here in a while but I thought RFDers might be able to offer some feedback. Essentially, I signed up with Esso Extra points and the Extra Privileges program back in April 2017. I immediately signed up for the fuel discount offer of "Buy 80 litres by April 28, 2017 and receive 2.5¢ off/litre for 40 litres." After achieving that within 3 weeks, I had a new offer, which kept pushing the litres required up (albeit with the litres eligible for the 2.5¢ discount also increasing). Anyway, here is my history of rewards/achievements:
Now having achieved the latest reward, my next offer is as follows:
Really, Esso? You're just going to automatically keep bumping up my requirement each time I achieve the previous one? Talk about pushing the limits. Does anyone know if they do this just to determine what your threshold is and then keep it there for the remainder of your enrolment? Does the requirement ever go down? Or do they continue increasing it until you just no longer use the program anymore?
