Switching utilities and cashback - help

Decided to switch gas and electricity supplier via energyhelpline but thought I'd check out cashback via quidco. If I go into this website and go to energyhelpline I believe I can get £20 cashback. If I put in my chosen supplier (EDF) into quidco I can get £80 cashback plus the offers from EDF. Do I still get this if I go through energyhelpline via quidco? Maybe being a bit thick here but wondered if anyone can advise?:o

    You'll only get £20 if you go via Energyhelpline. Go via the cashback site for £80.

    Make sure you clear all cookies from your PC before applying, otherwise Energyhelpline might end up with the commission if you've been browsing back & fore.

    The EDF cashback comes direct from the supplier so you get it whether or not you go through a third party site.

    Other cashbacks are essentially some/all of the commission a supplier pays their referrer. As only one company can refer you to the supplier, there is only one referral company the supplier pays out to and so there is only one amount you can get.
