Quidco- show me the money! (some good stuff lately..)

I always use quidco, I have earned £230 in around 9months! I normally do the bingo ones where you deposit a tenner get twenty back + any winnings and I won £1000!!!
My oh uses tcb and hasn't found it as good sadly.

Lovefilm declined my cashback despite me doing *everything* right on the free trial. I have also heard of others who couldn't get the DVDs back to them inside the free trial period (the DVDs have to be received by them for your sub to be cancelled). Be warned!

Apart from that Quidco has been nothing but plain sailing for me, have earned £480 so far (£360 paid already). I use TCB less often but have earned about £80 from it. :beer:

I use Quidco, TopCashBack and CashbackKings. I don't particularly have a preference - whenever I am about to buy something from a retailer I just check which site pays most cashback for that retailer. Sometimes it's the same, sometimes one particular site has a special promotion on or offers a higher percentage.

E.g I haven't used Quidco until recently when I was booking a holiday and they had a special deal on with Expedia which made it worth going with them even after I took account of the £5 deduction.

I signed up to the £3.99 a month love film deal when cash back was £22 and it appeared on quidco straight away. I haven't canceled it because I actualy like getting two films a month and the choice of european cinema is great.

Firstly bear in mind that all these cashback groups are profit making companies with money making execs behind them (Quidco included) - they all take money off you from somewhere.

I have to say, that's I went with Quidco as it was open to see how they make their money, and it's by taking £5 a year from members.

Topcashback and others will also be turning a nice profit each year, but where do they take the money from? I assumed they would be taking 0.1% here and there from your earnings to pay their salaries etc. They don't seem open about it. (It's also possible Quidco could be doing this too)

So while you're 'paying' Quidco £5 a year, the others could be 'charging' you £10 / £50 / £100 per year and you just wouldn't know.

have you set upu your bank details correctly? and also set the minimum payment amount. Mine is set to £50 so I receive nothing until they have been paid £50. It can be for as much or as little as you want but I'm pretty sure you have to complete that section too

I am a happy user of quidco :j

I've earnt just under £900 in the last year, from genuine transactions, not free trial stuff (lovefilm etc) and have not had a single problem at all. I have received £740 of the money into my bank account and currently have £40 waiting to be paid to me at the begining of May with the rest being tracked so am hoping they will be paid out in June/July.

I have no problems at all with Quidco and have recommended to several friends who so far have not had problems either

Based on the above I am more than happy to pay the £5 annual fee. And it's even better now that my transactions for using my card in store are starting to show up :T

I use both Quidco and TCB. As someone else has said I use whomever is paying the largest cashback for that merchant. In addition, some merchants are on one and not the other. I agree the £5 charge is a little out of date and Quidco should look seriously at dropping this in line with the competition.

I have found sites very reliable altough TCS does offer more flexibility in terms of timing of payouts.

I have earnt over £2000 across the two sites in the last couple of years for essentially doing nothing but using their links. I still can't believe that people don't do it.

I've just had my Lovefilm £18 paid from December. Didn't pay a penny for the trial and cancelled before the end and they received the disks back. This was in strike times as well.
