    Many thanks to all that have posted on here. The offer is still there to anyone who has missed it so far and as has been previously mentioned, the Tesco triple credit deal is also quite good for those looking for a sim only deal whereas the free cashback available on Sim cards has amounted to £8.70 with zero spend. Will now let this thread expire if no more responses but this one final post just to flag it up for those that missed it
    Freebies you don't really need can be given to your local Hospice Charity shop so they can raise funds they desperately need. Pass on your good fortune :A

    Hmmm
    Seems the MSE effect has hit them (15,000+ views has probably seen them hammered.

    Currently on Quidco Free Sims get the following
    Tesco £2.00
    T-Mobile £1.00
    Orange £0.80
    Three £0.50
    o2 £0.30

    TopCashBack
    T-Mobile £1.00
    Orange £0.80 (only after a £10 top up shocker) :eek:
    Three £0.50
    O2 £0.30

    Sadly this now only amounts to £6.40 (excluding the shocker from orange)
    But, still - its free money

    If you use CBK then they are offering £4.20 for Tesco sims still (Now requires a £10.00 top up but with triple credit activated FIRST - check the packaging to activate triple credit) as well as the T-Mobile, Three and O2 deals as above so those still looking for a good cashback can get in here, but be quick, because as we've seen they will pull the plug

  • Did anyone actually get paid for this?

    My Quidco transactions that initially tracked at £0.00 (as they should) have just changed to 'Paid' at £0.00.
    They completely skipped the 'validated' at £4.50 stage :(

    No enquiries permitted either; oh well.
