Topcashback or Quidco - Which is Best?

squack

at the moment TCB are offering a christmas bonus of an extra 1% or better on a lot of merchants. we will see if Quidco follows suit. Also whereas Quidco pays on the 1st of every month, you have to request your earnings from TCB when they become payable, which is more flexible in a way. As a new customer, on either site it will take a couple of months for your first lot of commission to trickle through the system:money:

TCB for me as well, as stated the 4 major advantages are:

1: No admin fee.
2: Top-ups - I've been getting 107% for the last few months (it all adds up).
3: Payments on demand, no waiting until the end of the month.
4: They will match a higher advertised cashback and also pay the top-ups on this.

O/P and others, be sure to check what rates Quidco are offering because whilst TCB do HCP and pay top ups on top of the HCP, Quidco do get the best rates and top exclusives in the first instance, one startling current example is EDF. ( Ive just done this on TCB solely due to the "topups", not everyone has the time or inclination to look around for the highest rates)

I really rate TCB though tracking my ebay purchases is a bit a hit & miss which can be annoying. I used to use Internet Cashback all the time but the % payouts aren't as good as TCB. I've just received £45 for moving my car insurance to esure & i'm just waiting on £80 to clear for a new More Than home insurance policy. It's sooo worth it, I can't get my head round people who don't do it!!!!

You have to treat both as different stores selling broadly the same range of items. If they are both selling the item you want to purchase, then you pick the net cheapest.

I use both but would go with TCB if all other things were equal.

Out of the two i probably have had to raise more queries with Quidco than TCB but in the end everything was paid out. So have a slight preference for TCB.

Nonetheless i always use the cashback maximizer here on MSE and go with whoever seems to be offering the best deal. Used to use MrsCashback quite a lot but they dont seem to have as good deals as the others.

After several years with Quidco and many tracking problems/disputes, it's TCB everytime for me now with not one problem.

Hi

Speaking from my experience anyone must be better than Top cashback. I've been waiting for 5 months now for a £70 cashback that was supposed to take a maxiumum of 3 months. I've chased them twice and while they come back quickly nothing happens you're just told to wait. I'm not going to use them again until they at least sort this one out and maybe not even after that.
I'm starting to wish I'd never seen Martin's post on them as it's now starting to annoy me so much. But I'm not giving up ! !, they said they'd pay out when I went through them with my purchase so why should I. :mad:
