just thought I'd let people know that my Cahoot savings account has paid up to quidco, I joined in July.
Also Catalink 0.40p and pickthem.co.uk 0.10p
I noticed these from someone else posting otherwise I'd never have got that 50p!
Paid out already since July - £53.51
Validated to be paid this month - £20.50
Still to be validated - £200.85
:T not bad for 2 1/2 months "work"!
also got £290 from pigsback in 4 weeks
but £255 of that was from booking 17 hotel rooms for work;)

Nice one!
I just started looking at quidco yesterday, to make that much out of it do you mnd me asking are you just getting cashback from the things you buy or are you buying things for other people?
It just seems that you would have to be buying an awful lot of things to get that much money back or is it from changing services like gas\elec etc?
I use an egg card to make all of my puchases so I take it I'd get 1% back on that as normal then whatever quidco give me too?
Cheers,

I've "spent" about £40.00 to earn that, well £1090 because I booked my £1050 holiday through thomsons and earnt £20 cashback that way. But the majority was earnt through changing car insurance, Cahoot Bank account, Blockbuster DVD free trials, easy mobile SIMS (2 x£1 sims), signing up to Bingos.co.uk and Betfair (£10 deposit) I've only earnt true "cashback" on the holiday and £1.70 from ordering some flowers for my mum on her birthday, so most has been made from signing up to things and free trials.

Quidco is no good for me because I'm on talktalk and apparently the IP is being routed as non UK (or something). What they have basically said to me is my IP is coming up as non UK so any promotions or whatever that I join on Quidco, I will probably not get paid for because on my non UK IP address????
Is that right?
Anyway, in a nutshell I can't earn anything from it - shame.~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Hi,
you should be able to load this page then look in the top right corner to see what country your ip address is marked as.
Mine is UK so I should be OK I'm guessing.

Let me know how you get on, I'm curious now?
we used it to work out the country emails were coming from to filter out people pretending to be in the UK when we sold my GF's car.

Ah no, I had this problem and it is easy to sort! Apparantly each time you log on the IP is routed differently, and sometimes it will be non-UK and sometimes not. I contacted quidco with this problem as I am also with TalkTalk and basically if you get the non-uk error, just log off the internet and back on again, sometimes more than once, and eventually you will be able to log in! It definitely is OK as I have been using quidco for 3 months and I have about £130 to come to me, all tracked with no problem - and another £110 if Lloyds tracks my car insurance but lots of people have had a problem there I think.
So you can still use quidco!
Hope this helps

i joined quidco yesterday. i `m already a member of mutualpoints.com and i usually use them for the cashback on purchases, but on looking through quidco the cashback they offer is far higher!
Is there a catch somewhere, do they not generally payout, do your purchases not register quite a lot?
car insurance with £70 and house insurance with a 100 cashback......there must be something wrong here, with mutualpoints the most i ever got was in the ragon of £18 for a transaction.
Who else uses quidco, what's your experience and opinion? and do these insurance company's really give youu 100 quid cashback for a 400 quid policy :shocked:0 -
allan its true
they do pay out, slowly but they do... just remember if you are going to buy anthing off the web see if quidco do cash back first :rotfl: i have a list of sites that sell all my xmas presents needed and i am buying them this month... if they all track/validate i should get over £40 back from £100 presents :rotfl:
