Quidco/The Phone Spot cashback link problem?
Anyone else having problems using the Quidco cashback link to The Phone Spot? Worked fine for me until about 5, since when all it does is load a blank page. Could some kind person with a Quidco account test it for me if possible please? I need a phone, but I don't want to miss out on the Quidco cashback!
