Becky - just had a quick look and I would borrow the smallest amount (£80), repay £100, so £20 loss, but with £65 cashback from Quidco, you will have £45 profit?

Has anyone else done it that can confirm?

yep, i think i made £40 full profit, borrowed £80, repaid £100 ... it was good...!

i don't remember having to jump thru too many hoops, they must've tightened up the rules, that's a shame hun...!

Yeah indeed - but ah well - it went all the way through and then got stuck there - same thing happened to Lenny I think - not sure what'll happen now they'll prob bombared me with silly phone calls now...

Ah well at least I have lunch to eat and its sunny and I'm om holiday in a few hours

Becky even if you got it to work, quidco isnt going to pay out to you before the weekend hun. Bank of mum and dad sounds like the best alternative

No but she would have £80 to get her through the weekend....

thats pants Becky - I would tot up how much it has cost you and ask them for reimubursement. Its not just about living close to the edge you are going away to New York and need to get your dollars......

and the 25th is tomorrow so as they say you are getting paid tomorrow? No Monday which is not tomorrow.

Sammy is cross for you.....

Yeah but loan would hit today - bank of mum and dad - oh my favourite!!! At least they can give me my birthday money *rolls eyes*

Thanks guys I thought it might just be me - I think its because loads of the upper staff are really rich and dont understand what its like to live month to month and plan things very carefully - so their attitude is ah well, you'll get paid on Monday!

don't be too sure Becky, I bet some of them a) have no idea whats coming out of their bank or b) or too proud to admit they are skint....

My OH is both of the above.....
