switched with moneysupermarket- cashback??

hi all,
hope you can help out, I am feeling a bit dim at the moment! After getting our latest gas and electricity bill which states we will now be paying £260 per MONTH (!!!) we decided to switch to n power last night. I wnt through moneysupermarket but can't understand how I get the £30 cashback, can anyone tell me how this works?
Thanks
T

    After four or five moths nPower will pay moneysupermarket some money. Moneysupermarket will then give you £30 of that. The process takes between 2 and 6 months. (nPower are particularly slow wrt cashbacks.) This is, of course, if the cookies on your web browser track things correctly.

    As with all cashback deals, NEVER buy a product that is not decent value before any cashback is included.

    By the way, you said your bill suggested a payment of £260 per month. Remember to compare the actual prices of the tariff, not just how much someone says you will be paying. If you were paying £260 per month, chances are you have quite a flat useage all year round to have such high bills so automatic increases in your DDs may not be accurate.
  • hi Kim,
    thank sfor that, I did look at three or four comparison sites and npower came out as best on all of them, I then went through moneysupermarket as I knew they had cash back . I knowI sound stupid but what do you mean buy comparing the actual price of the tariff? We don't normally pay £260 a month, up until this month it has been much less.

    OOO I wish I understood all this, you would think with a degree in maths I would have some clue, lol.
