quidco questions

hiya

weve never used quidco before but looking at the forums on the site many people are not happy with the new site should we consider another cashback site (never used any) or join quidco?

can someone tell us how long it takes for payments to get into our account when weve used quidco?

ta for anyones help

the retailer page on Quidco that you use to click through to the site should have all the information about tracking times etc

Topcashback is another good site , same applies on there , each retailer page has expected tracking times

I've used Quicdo for 3 years now, it's great. I did have an account with topcashback but find it easier to use with Quicdo. The new layout is a little different but after a while you get used to it. Its just change.

I dont get why people start to moan about a different layout, its not as if you are charged for Quidco! (I like the new layout btw)

But you do pay for Quidco, £5.00 a year I believe

yeah quidco takes the first £5 out of the earningseach year

i personally wished i joined earlier, i started using it in June and have already earned £300+ in cash back (£60 of it paid already, and £218 due in the next week or so) plus have still got over £50 outstanding that has to be paid by the merchant to quidco.

i am not keen on the new version at all (a lot missing in my veiw ie no merchant stats as to speed and reliablility of payment being the biggest issue imo) , but at the moment you can switch back to the old style which is what i have done.

definatly worth it if you shop online, or if you are buying something any way, there are more "free clicks" on other cash back sites

best deal we have had so far is £150 cash back for an orange contract phone (we only took out the £15 a month dolphin contract which we were going to get any way, so have effectivly got the first 10 months free)

they have also started "quidco in store" where if you register your cards and use them at certain places (ie cineworld, halfords, little chef) you can earn cash back on the instore products

It is the NEW LAYOUT of the site people are not happy with, not the site itself ...

I have found Quidco reliable, even if some retailers take a long time to payout - but that is not the fault of Quidco.

The cashback rates seem good, and they pay each month, for whatever THEY have received from the retailers.

Yes, they 'charge' £5 per year, but it is only taken from earnings in that year. So if you earnt less than £5 in any year, they would not take any more from you.

Remember, ALL these cashback sites have to be paid for somehow - they are not free to run. So it is either in 'hard cash' like Quidco, or through lower payouts to you than the site gets from the retailers. My vote is in the Quidco model.

And lastly, it is money you would not otherwise get. You still pay the same price to the retailer, so there is no additional cost. There are even Cashback only offers, that you would not get elsewhere.

Just remember, only buy if you are happy with the deal. The cashback, IF you get it, is a bonus.
