Thanks. Mine doesn't show as tracked but it does show as a recently visited retailer. Hopefully they will honour.

I would expect,some kind of reply,by lunchtime today.

Reply from Quidco rep:

Good morning,

@Bazwaldo & @Careful_ly - It's Nationwide who have changed the rate and not Quidco but if raise support messages and ask for them to be passed to me I'll pass them to the relevant team who will contact you directly. http://www.quidco.com/contact-us/

Kind regards,
Jules

So is it going to be honoured or not? I'd guess not. Still, at least we haven't lost anything.

Interestingly it says that early closure is allowed with an interest penalty, so if you have a spare £5000 lying around, you could probably do this offer and withdraw the funds back to where you borrowed them from.

I'm only thinking that with an offset mortgage, you are effectively free to draw down funds in your mortgage without asking anyone, so long as you pay your full debt in the term signed up for (eg 20 years).

I think I could lay my hands on the £5,000, but not for a year.

I think the interest penalty is 90 days so you would lose just over £30, so not really worth it.

Then I'd guess it was Nationwide's mistake which led to an offer being made to customers who then accepted that offer - i.e., not the altered offer. If Nationwide have already taken your money as a result of the original Quidco offer, surely they have to honour it?

No, they don't - but if enough people complain to them they might do something about it. Though, thinking about it, I doubt they would - Nationwide don't give a toss about their customers these days.

You're assuming that it was a Nationwide mistake, though - my money's on it being a Quidco 'mistake'. Topcashback is much better to deal with, charges no annual fee like Quidco, and paid out recently on some problem claims that Quidco refused to pay up on. Why anyone continues to use Quidco (except for the rare occasion when they're offering something unique) beats me. The web's full of examples of people failing to prise their money out of Quidco.

I've just read the thread...didn't realise there'd been a problem I signed up the other night when it said min£1....we did put a lot more than £1 in but not 5k.....
It's still tracking if it doesn't get honoured will be really peed off because it so obviously did say min £1!:mad:
