cashback sites. the best and worst. Hints and Tips

ukbandit

i've seen loads of these cashback sites, but have never really used them

are they any good and whats peoples advise on how best to get the most out of them?

should i register with a couple and just go with the one that gives the most, or are there any tips i need to know?


thanks

p.s i have read the MSE article on buying online, just wan tto see if there are any updates to it, e.g. topcashback.co.uk etc.

Have a look at EDeals
http://www.edealsuk.com/Cashback-Users-Login.aspx
I have never cashed in yet, minimum £25. :beer:

I use www.greasypalm.co.uk - they pay out after you reach £25. I also use
www.rpoints.com - you can withdraw £1 at a time into your Paypal account.
You can accumulate cash on both these sites by using the shopping comparison sites without spending anything - this is only a few pence at a time but it all adds up.

i use http://www.quidco.com/... made one transaction... no probs so far!... got money. they charge £5 per year though... better than nothing!... havent heard anyone complaining about quidco yet either

Ausweb

Another vote for quidco - they may charge £5 per year but they give you the full amount of cashback with everything you do - Most other sites only pay out approx 50% of the amount they receive, (the rest is theirs)

Quidco also do not have a minimum amount to achieve (once you have paid their £5), I have set my account to pay out any monthly cashback greater than £2.


Got £25 last month, and currently have £60 waiting to be paid - would be nowhere near this figure using the other sites mentioned.

Quidco for me, seem to have higher payouts than others.

I got £130 for swapping buildings & contents to Zurich, that's £65 for each, just about free cover for the year :j

Also got about another £70 through Dell, Freemans, etc etc.

If you are buying something online, 1st look for a discount code and then go through quidco...you know it makes sense :money:

Another Quidco user here, I used to use RPoints a lot but find Quidco is a much higher pay out.

I would only bother registering with Quidco for the majority of your online shopping as their payout levels and customer service are excellent.

It might be worth signing up to www.pigsback.com if you don't purchase much online, as you can still earn a steady amount in vouchers with their free 'clickthroughs'. Pigsback also offer a better rate for Goldshield (vitamins and supplements) Amazon and CDWOW.

i use greasypalm and topcashback. got £60 from greasypalm for house insurance and £90 from topcashback for car insurance.

both sites are very good and not a problem getting the money.

topcashback for me..... better than quidco as there are no fees at all! (and usually offer just the same cashback) I've had over £370 from them in less than a year.

Thumbs up for Quidco, Topcashback, and Pigsback. The first two give great rates of cashback, the thrid is good , as someone said for building up points towards regular vouchers. I personally would avoid the rest because they either don't give as good cashback rates as these, or the more newish ones are run very amateurishly, with a lot of probems occurring through going out of business, or having non-existant customer care, or simply not paying out when they are supposed to.
