Hello all, apologies if this has already been posted...
Looking at quidco i saw that paydayuk give £50 cashback to new customers.
They do small loans that you pay back on your next payday
Minimum you can borrow is £80 and u get charged £20 so u pay back £100
now...
if u go through quidco, u can get £50 cashback
u pay £20 in interest
but get £50 cashback
= £30 profit
People on quidco are saying the payout is within a month. What do you all think?

I'd say steer well clear, personally, but that's because of the whole payday loan thing. I just wouldn't want to get tangled up with that. Not for 30 quid anyway!PROUD TO HAVE DEALT WITH MY DEBTS0

That does sound pretty interesting. I'll probably give it a go. I'll be flushing all cookies first, but provided it tracks the only way things could go wrong is if you don't have the cash in your bank account when they come round to claiming their cash.I like my Money For Nothing.

Payday Uk Cashback raised to £65 until midnight 31 March, so profit on an £80 loan if the Quidco Cashback comes through is £45.
Would be good to take money off scumbags charging mind-boggling APR of 1737% !!0 -
i have done this before, had no problems at all
borrowed 80 paid back 100 quidco at the time was 70 , made an easy £50, easy to cancel etc!Mortgage Start jun 2007 £88500 Outstanding Balance £51000
Overpayments 2007 Nil 2008 £1040 2009 £7853 2010 £10000 2011 aiming for £18000 (6k so far)

They're currently offering £65 cashback for an accepted loan. Have just signed up for one and been approved. Should be an easy £45 if it works.
Thanks for posting

Worked for me a few months back - I dithered for ages in case it all went horribly pear-shaped. The only downside was the sheer volume of junk emails from similar payday type companies - went into the hundreds for a while, and I'm usually pretty good about ticking the opt-out boxes.
Still, makes a nice change from the requests to enlarge my penis!All shall be well, and all shall be well, and all manner of things shall be well.
Pedant alert - it's could have, not could of.0 -
would this have any sort of negative effect on your credit rating?0

How do you make money from this. If you have to pay them £100 and get £50 back then surly use loose £50.Come on you Irons0
