    Surely they can't expect people to use a temporary number for a few months while they wait for their cashback?
  • can this be done twice onthe same quidco account do you know? was wanting to get one for my daughter?

    Thats what I was thinking. I really dont want to carry 2 phones around with me. I dont see why and how it should affect the cash back. But they say it might.

    Hi all, I have had 2 orders track on quidco for this: first was placed on 2/8 and tracked on 4/8, 2nd was placed on 3/8 and tracked on 5/8. I am new to quidco so do not know if this is normal or not.

    Also do not know the impact of using a PAC code in terms of getting cashback however have just used mine earlier to port from o2 back onto o2 ie without needing to go through any form of pay-as-you-go. Was told it was ok by the o2 agent and that it would take 2 working days to be processed ie my old number should work on the new sim on monday.

    fingers x'd!

    It was supposed to finish on 3 August. If they have extended it, why not try going through Topcashback instead of Quidco for your additional purchase. They are offering £100 too. (However ordered mine through them and it has not tracked yet 7 days afterwards but they are generally pretty good)
    There are three ways to get something done; do it yourself, hire someone or forbid your kids to do it.
  • Hi, I purchase the O2 12 month contract sim on 1st Aug, i received the SIM on the 4th. My Quidco transaction hasn't tracked yet. If i go to "submit an earning enquiry" then i can see my O2 Transaction listed there. But i cannot summit a enquiry until 14day after the purchase. This is the same period of time i have to cancel the o2 contract.

    I do not want to risk this not tracking. Was thinking could i try purchasing another sim through quidco and see if that tracks quicker. If it does i can then cancel my first sim? Or maybe i could purchase the second through topcashback?

    Has anyone had experience of cancelling the contract with the first 14 days?

    Just adding my experience so far, in case anyone is in the same position.

    My o2 contract ended today and I'd ordered a new sim as a new customer on Monday. I called o2 today to transfer my number on to the new sim. I was put through to retentions who offered me a dongle to keep my account. I explained that I took out a new account for the cashback and that a dongle just wouldn't swing it!

    She was fine with that and said that I'd be issued with a PAK code even though this is o2 to o2. That way the accounts stay separate, i.e. I become a new customer, however I lose my loyalty bonus (no discounts, it would seem - just the offer of a dongle!).

    My order still hasn't tracked through Quidco, but o2 tell me that I am now considered a new customer, so there should be no problem with the cashback.

    Hope that helps someone!
  • Can anyone confirm this is still running?

    It is still on Quidco at £100,but I know it was supposed to end on the 4th.
    Had a look around quidco to see if I could have it confirmed but couldn't find anything to say it had ended :confused:

    Thought about getting it for my DD and buying her a handset separately.
