  • I paid my 3rd payment on the 9th October and have just rung the post office to query when my cashback letter would come , this was what i was told .....

    Over 1000 people are due the cashback ... After your 3rd payment it takes aminium of 2 weeks to show up on their system ..... Then up to 28 days for them to send out the letters ( with barcode to exchange in the post office for cash ) ..... They have told me to ring them again to chase it up , if i haven't received the letter by the end of Nov .....

    So at the moment it looks like i will have to pay at least one more months direct debit ...... maybe even two ....

    So here's hoping that it arrives soon !!

    terri xx

    Thanks for that:T , it's useful information for everyone involved, I was going to ring but will leave it for now as some poor person at teh post office is proberbly inundated. I'm sure we are all in that 1000 :eek: !!!
    Just trying to be me.....

    I wouldnt cancell direct debit until you receive everything

    Technically you should be able to cancel the DD and still receive the cashback as you have fufilled the T&C's. However, for the sake of one more DD, do you want to take the chance?

    Having problems with the quidco element to this.

    By the time my application was completed the £43 PO Life Insurance cashback had been removed from quidco. So, like others, I selected the next highest PO insurance which was £27.20 and submitted a ticket. That amount has never been updated to £43 and I notice it has today validated at £27.20 with Nov 08 payment date. Anyone else in the same boat? I've contacted quidco to see what they say.....
    Quidco ~ £3,718 | Greasypalm ~ £354 | Freefivers ~ £45 | Pigsback ~ £260 shopping vouchers + 15 CDs
    Total cashback / freebies / money-saving: 2006 ~ £3,961 | 2007 ~ 3,610 | 2008 ~ £4,159 | 2009 ~ £1,449

    Got my letter also
    Applied 7th Aug at 10.15am
    3rd Payment - 1st Oct
    Quidco currently saying - Validated £43 - Payment Date Nov

    Do you think it is safe to cancel my Direct Debit now or would you wait until the Quidco has definatly paid ?
