£4.50 cashback NO SPEND - Loophole on Tesco Free Sim EXPIRED

emerald21

I applied for one sim and called 282 and it validated on Quidco on the 12/03 at £0.00. Nothing has changed since so i called my home number but didn t answer would that have been enough or should i have actually answered it to spend some of the money on the sim ? If there s anything else i should do to ensure it changes to £4.50 could they please tell me. Thanks

No need to spend money on the sim. Allow a few more days. Mine did go validated at £4.50 same day, but I know that some companies only validate at set intervals, upto as much as 1 month apart (i don't know tesco's affiliates policy so maybe weekly fortnightly or monthly), so it is possible I was lucky to activate in time for that validation period. If after a month any small amount hasn't activated on any Quidco transaction, raise a support ticket unless the terms tell you otherwise (they don't in this case), but I am afraid sometimes patience is needed. Do post back here if you still get a problem or if it does validate after a set period so others know how long it will take

Thanks

I did this (I was actually the 2nd poster on the thread).

* QuidCo cashback tracked almost immediately at 0.00p
* Received the SIM card 4 days later.
* Made one call to my home number to activate SIM
* Received notification today from QuidCo that my cash back is now tracking at £4.50

Simple!

Many thanks to the OP.

Same for me too, thanks OP :T

Activated my SIM on the 12th Mar and it has validated this morning, so it's taken a little over 2 weeks. (I activated my SIM around 3 weeks after I recieved it, I simply forgot!)

Thanks toxic

New terms are

You can activate your card within 12 months period however your cashback will only be received after you've activated your sim within 6 months from order confirmation One registration per member. Please note that if you order more than one SIM per transaction, you will only receive cashback for only one SIM. You can order maximum of two Free SIM cards. This will initially track at £0.00. The correct amount of cashback will then be added to your account within one month of you activating the SIM. This merchant is unable to accept enquiries.

Looks like the mse effect has happened.
But you can still get £4.50 cashback each for those that missed the opportunity to claim on multiple sims.
Of course you could still have multiple Quidco registrations. One for each of you with a bank account. I.E you and your other half for a legit example. Any other way of having multiple Quidco accounts shouldn't be mentioned
You are still also able to also claim this on other cashback sites on top of Quidco

Info on other cashback sites offering same offer would be appreciated. Please post
