    Can I add that 'myoffers' is extremely spammy so it's worth setting up a disposible email account for that one.

    Could be down to the fact that your £5 sub multiplied by a million Quidco users means they can employ decent staff and get better deals.
    .

    Well their payed staff just aren't interested in you if you don't get your cashback... and that's first hand experience......... :mad:
    When you are paying staff (£5) you expect them to go the extra mile...
    What if the Hokey Pokey really is what it's all about !!!

    They always have for me, on the two rare occasions that I had problems at least.

    Why is this turning into a competition anyway? No-one is right, no-one is wrong.

    Agreed - with Quidco I queried 3 times in 4 years and got all 3 queries approved no problemo.

    In fact my Lovefilm £15 cashback ended up £20 so I was well chuffed.

    Then you think both sites are equally good?

    I had a look at the TCB site and it seems rather inferior in terms of the deals on offer and range of partners.

    Could be down to the fact that your £5 sub multiplied by a million Quidco users means they can employ decent staff and get better deals.

    Pay peanuts, get monkeys.

    Having, unlike some, used both sites I've found TCB infinitely better in every way possible. . . Range of retailers, % rates, Highest Cashback guarantee that works, simple manual claims system, extremely friendly staff, questions easily answered, money paid out correctly and on time.

    Edit: Blimey. . . I forgot top-ups!

    Quidco were very poor in terms of communications. It took me half a dozen attempts to get off their mailing list when I left. However if people are happy for them to take a fiver a year from their cashback then so be it. Diff'rent strokes and all that. . .

    Err I didn't expect this to turn into a mine is bigger than yours topic! I'm only new to Quidco in the last few weeks. If only I'd used it when I first started looking at the Grabbit forum I'd be £10 richer :rotfl:

    I don't mind the £5 fee as the way I look at it, I was always going to pay M&S £46 in the sale so the £1.38 that tracked and will be deducted from my £5 is of no consequence. Every purchase or click that gets me above the £5 is a challenge.

    If anyone else spots a deal then post it here and I'll update the first post. That includes anyone who has tracked a deal that may not have tracked yet for me.

    I did think this was a no purchase board, not a discussion about which is better. Thank you for this list. Will work through it tomorrow.

    Small suggestion - Could the title poss be changed to state 'quidco - little or no purchase' to make it clearer? :o

    After seeing your post and a similar thread for TCB I've renamed as suggested. I will have a further look for click throughs tomorrow and update as I find any or as payments track or validate.
  • Thanks to the OP my Lenor, cheap flights and research poll have all tracked so far....with quidco :P
