New unsure Quidco user - where'd that 3 broadband for £7.50 deal disappear to?

Options
I signed up to Quidco on Sat night so I could get the £7.50 for 5GB mobile broadband deal Martin kindly told us about. I'm sure it showed as a £7.50 offer as soon as I clicked through from Quidco - it definitely went straight to that page. Needed to check a couple of things, then went back in tonight to buy, but now the link on Quidco only goes through to the standard 3 homepage and deals (ie £15/month for the same deal.)

Do I click on the £15 month deal and then automatically get the refund back through Quico, or has the deal suddenly disappeared (no!!!! please no!!!!)? I haven't gone through Quido before and don't want to find myself paying the £15/month by mistake...

Thanks for any help to make sure i get this right

    hey. I signed up for this offer last night too and it all went through ok. Here's the deal I got

    Handset Model Handset 3 USB E160 Stick Modem Black
    Price £0.00
    Price plan Broadband (5GB)
    Price plan cost £7.50 per month.

    All I did was have one window with Quidco signed in (to make sure I was signed in to Quidco) and then had another window open with MSE link and clicked it. Took me straight to the correct offer at 3 and then signed up.

    Reason I had another window open with Quidco signed in was that when I clicked the link on MSE on it's own it took me to the offer page, but I had to sign in. As soon as I signed in, I lost the offer, had to search for 3 and then was given a bunch of offers that were nowhere near the £7.50 offer.

    hope that helps

    Thanks Andy. Tried it but nope - doesn't seem to be working.... All I get is the home page. Anyone else having this trouble?

    Sorry but I think the offer is finished. The thread that was on the grabit board has been moved to "It's gone but was it any good...?"

    (you are now hearing the sound of me kicking myself if this is true)

    It was meant to finish end July but apparently was extended to end August. At least Quidco still has it up as going till then, and it was there yesterday, but then the link doesnt go to the deal when clicked. Have posted a query with Quidco - hopefully will hear in the morning.

    think I might have got the last one then as my sign up email states the same as the offer :confused:

    I only just heard about this, but that looks like a good deal, I'm quite sad I missed it now :(
    Just because you made a mistake doesn't mean you are a mistake.
