Does Quidco always give the best cashback?

koru

I have found that Quidco seem to give better cashback than the other similar sites like Rpoints. Often double. OK, they deduct £5 per year, but I've had £100 from them in 6 months, so £5 is not a big deal.

But has anyone found any examples where you could buy from the same retailer via a different site and get more cashback than Quidco offer? (I mean the big retailers, not obscure specialist websites.)

eg, I notice that Amazon are not on Quidco, but it looks like you can get 1% cashback if you buy goods from Amazon via MutualPoints.com.

I think Topcashback also give 100% cashback but can't vouch for them as never used them. Had £700 from Quidco in 3 months so why go elsewhere??

Thanks. They look pretty good. On a quick random comparison, they give the same cashback on most things; in cases where there is a small difference in the rate, it is more often in favour of Quidco. If I'm about to make a big purchase, I might check them before buying through Quidco.

Hi koru,

I've only been using cashback sites for about a year, but for the last six months I've stuck with Quidco for everything. They give the best rates, and if the rates rise, they give you the bonus instead of keeping it for themselves. I've had over £700 from them now. The only exception is for Amazon. As you said, Quidco don't feature them, but eCashback pay 3%.

Hope this helps.

However, Quidco seem to have a lower percentage of payouts for individual retailers compared with Rpoints, which is kinda dodgy if you ask me

Rpoints also have a cashback promise to match the likes of quidco. Thats the reason I stay with them, as they don't have an annual charge and can pay cashback direct into your bank account and not via paypal, etc

Quidco are paying direct into bank accounts too ( as from August ).

Think Quidco are charging something lik 5p for every payment made directly into your bank (BACS)

Perhaps Quidco could try to get Amazon on site for us all:j and a few othres that are on other sites. The one thing that lets Q down is the lack of daily clicks.

True, but only fair to point out that they take the first 500, to match Quidco, in awarding Highest Cashback claims. As I found out the first time I claimed
