Quidco

Hi ,
I used Quidco for the first time at the weekend.
I bought AA breakdown cover for £121 , opting to pay in monthly instalments.
As I am spending over £99 , I should get £50 cashback , but the site shows my account as being credited with £21 ( the minimum cashback amount ), as my first payment is £11.
Have I misunderstood the way Quidco works ?
Thanks for reading.

    Hi,

    Exactly the same has happened to me.
    I took out cover in August. I too spent over £ 99 and at that time the cashback was £ 42. It tracked at only £ 19 and then the cashback has since been declined.
    I've yet to submit a support ticket. It's not uncommon for rates to track at different rates apparently and then revert to what it should've been in the first instance.
    I've never had to submit a ticket before so I hope in doing so we'll both be lucky.

    Karen.

  • Our insurance was with kwickfit, it was also declined. Raised a ticked for them yo claim cashback had gone elsewhere which is not possible. So no longer use Quidco.

    Useful things to know



    Any fraudulent activity will result in immediate termination of your account. Earnings can only be paid to your account if it is set to receive payments through BACS. Any package over £75 will track at lower rates and will be updated upon validation. *

  • I have been waiting since February to be paid £50.00 they said i would receive for taking out home insurance with confused.com through them, when i 'raised a ticket' with them like you have been advised i was informed they dont query confused.com so i will most likely not be paid so dont hold your breathe!

    Thanks for that info.
    My account's set to receive BACS payments and, I've been a member for over 4 years.
    Have never had a declined situation before so I do hope that this will be overturned.
    My cashback's gone from tracked to declined. No mention of validation.
    I'm now wondering if it's because I'm paying monthly as the OP too.
