    Hello ladies and gents!

    Ive got a question about quidco if ayone can help

    ive had a bingo transaction track - £20 CB for depositing and playing through £10 - i deposted £10, but im not sure if i wagered £10 :S as i won a littel bit and withdrew. Will it just track then decline?? :(:(

    If it would decline, if i deposited again and played through it would that work? The only T&C on quidco was it was for new customers only, which i was
  • Okay, here is my summary of ideas and the reasons why I'm doing this challenge

    Psychic and tarot readings via email (have set up website)
    Domination website (working on this now)
    Ebooks that I've written myself
    Making art from recycled materials, to be sold at local art market
    Small craft items (eg crocheted brooches and belts)


    My main income comes from chatlines, although this just about covers rent and bills. There's nothing left over, so I want to increase my income. The challenge proceeds will be used for the following - paying back money I owe my mum, tax bills, trip to US, and starting a savings account.

    I also do occasional freelance copyediting for an academic publisher, this is quite lucrative but erratic. It's the kind of work that comes from contacts, but I really should approach some more publishers to see if they have work available.

    The fundamental reason for doing this, though, is that after years of health and anxiety problems that have prevented me from working, I am finally starting to take control of my life and take care of myself. The best way of achieving what I want, especially given that I live in Spain, is by going it alone, rather than working for someone else - I'm too much of an independent mind anyway. I want to create businesses to secure my future and bring in a decent income.

    Oooh I've found a good seller on eBay who is selling massage beds on eBay (can also use for facials, waxing etc) but I'm struggling to make myself buy it. I know I've made the money by selling stuff on eBay.

    If I charge £10 a massage (and make it clear I am only a student etc) I could make my money back in 6 clients, oh I don't know.

    Someone make the decision for me :rotfl:

    PS tomorrow's payday!

    Everyone's looking for a good deal at the moment nikki, £10 for a massage would be brill! Besides, you'll need a bed once you qualify.

    To be on the safer side, it is worth wagering initial £10 deposit for getting the cashback even if does not mention in terms. That way it will not be considered as if you are just doing it for cashback....;)

    My opinion is deposit again and wager few more to reach at least £10 and not to withdraw immediately... and wait untill you receive the cashback....HTH
  • That reminds me - I'm also qualified in reflexology and head massage.

    I'm no damn good at self-promotion, that's my problem - lots of ideas but no clue how to go about realising them ...

    What i did was deposited £10, played slots/BJ won some, played some, then withdraw £12, my issue is i dont know if i wagered my inital £10 or just wagers what i won (which was over £10) :S

    It says on hte bingo website that to get there 100% bonus you have to wager your initial deposit (which im not eligable for yet, so i havnt wagered my original deposit) - but im not bothered about the bonus , just want the cashback

    it doesnt say on Quidco weather its wager £10 original deposit or £10 all together dep or winnings
  • Not any real money as such but today I found out that as my electricity is with EON I get 1 clubcard point for every £2 spent on my prepayment meter. This means I get around £5 - £7 a year in points. Not very much but oh well.
