Quidco anyone???

shades_2

Hi all im about to but the nokia N97 sim free from the nokia shop ...to cut a long story short i found out about quidco and that it gives 15% of purchases at Nokia.

My question is how trust worthy are quidco are they reliable?
Do they really give the money back?
Does anyone use it here and if so do you get the money regularly?

I appreciate all your help but i want to buy this phone as cheap as possible as it will be costing £500 so 15% discount (or £75 of is quite a bit me) but would appreciate your help thanks

loads of people use it here, personally i have never had a problem with getting my money from them, once a year or so ago i had to raise a ticket but it was promptly looked into and paid, i use them for all my online shopping have had quite a few payments from them

If you buy the phone directly it will be £500
If you buy the phone through Quidco it will be £500, but you may get £75 cashback.
Why not get another phone model , £500 does seem rather a lot ?
Is PAYG or contract ?

Just a quickie to say I've never had a problem with quidco and have used it quite a lot - I think my total cashback is about £1000 over the years. They do sometimes take a few months to pay out (depending on the vendor) but I've always eventually got the cash.

I've been using Quidco for over 3 years, i've been paid over £800 in that time. I've had the odd thing declined but nothing big. As long as you clear your cookies (if you've been on the website first) and go through the quidco link, using your quidco email address then you should be ok.

First of all thank you guys looks like im getting a positive vibe here from all that replied so I will clear the cookies now and try that

The reason why im thinking of buying this phone on a sim free after i get 15% quidco it will work out cheaper in the long run
Im with o2 and they dont want to sell the N97 as i think they want to concentrate on the release of the iphone which i think is slightly overhyped
So what i am looking to do is buy this phone for £500 get my £75 back from quidco and then upgrade on o2 get something like the Nokia 5800 sell it and should get about £150 for that and also sell my N95 for abut £90 which would ideally mean i get £240 from the phones and quidco £75 = £315 meaning i will have only have spent £185 for the phone and be on a £20 a month tarif for 18 months (I say this cos my wife got this deal for approx 600 mins some msgs and unlimited internet) = £360 so in total will cost me £545 all in so i would be happy

Sounds confusing but if you work it out not bad so wish me luck here i go

You can also set on your account when you want the money & minimum pay out to go to your bank account.

would have been good if the option of cheque was available

I've never had a problem with quidco, have received plenty of money quickly through them.
