    Guys its been pulled:

    EXPIRED - POST OFFICE LIFE INSURANCE £43 QUIDCO AND £100 CASHBACKEXPIRED

    Are you sure?

    I have just been doing mine: I logged in through TopCashBack and completed my application. After reading your post I cleared my cache and revisited: TopCashBack is still showing the 43.00 pound cashback, and going through them to the Post Office site it still shows the 100 pounds for life insurance (although no longer on the separate page for over-50s life insurance).
  • Mine went through okay. I did have to go back in to the retrieved quote to get it to work, as it errored out in FF
    Comper and general cheapskate :)

    Doesn't say anything about it being "expired" on their website

    We're very sorry, an error has occurred with our online application service. Please accept our apologies for this inconvenience, and try again later.

    If you have been given a reference number, you should be able to retrieve your application and continue from where you left off.

    If you have only just begun your application, unfortunately you will have to start again. You can get a new quote by closing this browser window and returning to our website.

    It may take us a short while to resolve the error, so you may wish to come back later.

    This message came up at the end when I went to confirm?

    Yes, I had that as well. I used my reference number to continue immediately (after checking that the cashback details were still showing on-line) and at my second attempt everything went through.

    The nice thing about this: as well as cashback for us, I would imagine that the insurance company will be paying commission to the Post Office. So this is a good way to support your local Post Office, at the expense of some faceless financial institution.

    Quidco charge a monthly fee t6hough don't they?

    Got my quote, £5 amonth for ermmmm, I forgot
    :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl:


    No...just a one off £5 fee for the year, and you'll easily make that up in daily clicks and free signups without having to spend extra.

    However, if you use any form of online shopping and quidco list them as merchants, potentially you could earn more?

    Quidco charge a YEARLY fee (£5). I still use it.

    I put in for the cover to start on the 10th- was that daft? Or should it not make a difference, you think?

    What happens if you "claim" in the first 3 months do you still get your £100 cash back?

    ;)

    Shima

    LOL

    You'd have a job cashing it at the Post Office!

    Did it now my partner is signin up!

    I hope we get paid.

    BTW can we set up two DD with PO one same bank account????

    Take a look at the conditions, but I doubt it. (In terms of getting the cashback, that is- I'm sure they'd let you get insurance).
