quidco and paydayuk - £45 profit
[Deleted User]
Posts: 0 Newbie
If you go to through quidco, paydayuk are offering £65 cashback for new customers.
Complete rip-off like. Basically, minimum they lend you is £80 and then you pay abck £100 on pay day. Works at 1000s % interest.
However, £65 cashback minus £20 = £45 profit....
I've done it successfully.
Of course, the parasites ring you a few days before payday to see if you want to extend it by another month (another £20!). Just tell them no take the £100 back please!
Feel sorry for people who get tied into something like this....

I'm glad I'm not a genuine customer in need of "urgent" cash as they claim to offer...
I borrowed £80 from them via quidco today at about 2pm, was immediately accepted and it said I would have the money in my bank within a few hours.
5pm: no money in my bank. glad i dont need the cash to go out with tonight! Nothings tracked in quidco either, maybe i made a mistake?
7pm: still no money in the bank but now I get an email saying that the loan has been finalised. (eh? i thought it was all sorted 5 hours ago?)
11pm: so much for "instant transfer" the £80 is still in limbo somewhere between them and hbos. At least its finally tracked in quidco.
I dont have any quarms whatsoever about taking £45 off this company. they are a load of robbing ********'s charging me 139455% APR. I know looking at APR is a distorted picture but it's a scheme that can only make the rich richer and the poor poorer. Makes me mad! and when the vultures ring in a few days time to ask if I want to extend it, then I'll tell them no and make sure they know never to call me again.
I hope everybody manages to take a tidy £45 from them. Tell your friends! The more that know about this, the better.

I did this through topcashback. The paid £50 so after borrowing £80 and paying back £100 I cleared £30. Easiest money I ever made.
Can I do it on Quidco now? Even though I've done it on Topcashback.
I agree they are robbing bar stewards, Payday UK. I had no qualms whatsoever about taking this money from them. It tracked really quickly too.0 -
exactly same situation as my friend that applied tonight.ctjorourke wrote: »Tried this yesterday eve 6pm originally said u have been accepted, then received an e-mail saying can not verify you live at this address (even though i have lived here for 25 years and on the electoral register) can u send copies of passport ot driving lisc and utility bill, i did thid since then nothing

if quidco dont track it properly because of the delay with faxing/emailing id documents in, then they will end up £20 down, not £45 up! so i suggested that they abandon this application and try tomorrow in his wifes name instead.0 -
I did this successfully. It took several days to track but I didn't get any phone calls (so far anyway) or passport requested.
When I checked Quidco today it now says 'received' so should get paid in September. Quickest thing I've ever done through Quidco - less than 2 weeks from applying to them receiving the money. From my experience I would recommend this for an easy £45 profit.£10 a day challenge for July: Goal £310: £50 so far

I guess you could try quidco and topcashback. Depends whether they'd suss on the address was the same. You could end up getting no cb and losing £20 on the deal...0 -
I've been tempted by this offer on Quidco before, but I wonder what effect (if any) applying to a company like PayDayUK has on your credit score/rating.
Does anybody know?0 -
I have pretty much 0 credit history (CC and phone contract taken out last month thats it) and am on the electoral roll. Any chance of me being accepted for this?Nothing I say represents any past, present or future employer.0

Has anybody that has emailed or faxed their ID to paydayuk had their quidco cashback validated or does it never track?
i think theres a high chance that you would be accepted for a small amount like £80 especially as you are on the e/roll. Theres no harm in trying!I have pretty much 0 credit history (CC and phone contract taken out last month thats it) and am on the electoral roll. Any chance of me being accepted for this?0
