Post Office Loophole - £143 Cashback for as little as £15 spend
Comments
-
Letter came this morning - I discovered it when I called home at lunchtime. Promptly took it to the post office on the way back to work with a utility bill and my passport (just in case). They didn't even question the "Over 50" bit on the letter (despite me being 24 and looking younger!) he even put my date of birth in to the system to confirm my ID.
I was most amused when he gave me my £100 and said "Thanks for choosing the Post Office". No, no, my postal friend - thank YOU. :rotfl:I don't believe in doing things the easy way.....0 -
Well done everyone :T
Just a little reminder, please make sure you thanked the OP James10999 on the original post, there's only 71 thanks and I'm sure more people than that benefitted from his generosity in posting this.0 -
Went to get mine-Wednesday "Early closing"!! didnt realise the PO is still stuck in the 60s-no wonder there all closing!0

When you shout every day and make everthing a catastrophe,
no one will hear you when you need to say something really important.0 -

I got my letter today and have collected the cash from my local post office.
Quidco is validated at £43 but not paid yet.0 -
I took out a policy in my name and one in my boyfriends. I was going to get his £100 and use it to open him an ISA and put it in there, as the start to his savings!
The only trouble is, I put my boyfriends address down as mine, so all correspondance will come here! Now there is no problem with me getting my £100, but how the hell am I going to get his? It says that you need to bring a utility/household/telephone landline letter that confirms the same name and address that is printed on the letter. I assume from this that I would have been able to go in and collect it on his behalf had I got any bills in his name at my address, but now I am totally stumped! How am I going to get the £100 out for him so I can open the ISA?MFW 2011 challenge - Aim: Overpay £414.26 a month/£5,000 a year.

Maybe you could try taking both forms of ID and just say hes moved address since?0
