    Has anyone done the quidco and recommend a friend together?


    Not sure about Quidco.

    But it did work with Rpoints (Submitted a HCP cliam to match Quidco cashback)

    But that was when it was £40 cashback not £75.

    My wife has received her £30 credit, she had just had her bill, she is now in credit with them. I assume i will receive mine once i get my bill later this month.

    Thanks for all the replies! I'll be asking three for the PAC code nearer to the end of the month... I know I can get a deal with them, but have decided to go for a brand new contract and get Quidco, possibly recommend a friend and a great clearance deal.

  • I purchased a Nokia 6280 refurbished, on the video talk and text 700, which is double minutes and text's for first 6 months, free internet for a month, £5 worth of downloads each month, great deal! £17.50 for the term of the contract 18 months.

    £75 through Quidco
    £30 recommend a friend bonus!

    Fantastic deal if you ask me! (and even if you don't)

    Yes, it's to keep your number.

    My husband got a great upgrade deal actually. The Nokia N80 for 12 months half price (18 month contract) on Video talk 700.

    So depending on what type of phone you want, you still might get a suitable deal.

  • so when i get the pac code from three how do i connect that to whatever new deal i go for as that phone will come with its own no. and can i get another three contract or do i need to go with a different supplier.

    Also the O2 offer was just an imaginary made up deal.
    So, basically you lied to gain a pecuniary advantage?

    That's called fraud!

    You probably know this already, but you cannot transfer a '3' number, back to a '3' contract.

    You'll have to port the number out to a PAYG (do you have any old 02 sims lying around?)

    Then after, you can port it back.

    I've just done this, and my old number is with Virgin.. in a weeks time, I'll ask Virgin for the PAC code so that I can port it back to Three.

    A bit of a pain, but I do this every year.

    BTW, I insured that I'd get another three deal, but buying a new contract before the old one expired.
