Anyone used the others - any good? is Mutual Points similar to themutual.net?

I've not used mutual points, but there is a similar site called imutual which pays cashback and shares. I joined earlier this year and have been very impressed so far. No idea if the shares will ever be worth anything but the cashback seems reliable and often better than what I could have got at top cashback. HTH

Moneyfacts are running a survey on what people think of cashback sites they have used

You also get entered into a draw to win a £1000. When you've finished it sends you back to quidco so I assume this link is specific to them (I took it from their twitter page). But it asks for comments on all cashback sites you have used

I have read several articles and it is not classed as income, so you don't need to declare to HMRC or any other agencies.

Anyone else having problems with TopCashback?

I've been waiting about 10 months for tracked cashback from Red Spotted Hanky to come through. I contacted TCB but they asked me to wait four more weeks!

If you're looking at updating info regarding cashback sites, I would just like to recommend a site that isn't featured in the article at all. I found getpoundsback.co.uk after reading someone's recommendation on the forum here, and they are incredibly good and reliable. I'm not sure if it's a very small team who runs it, because every time I've had a problem, I've had a response from someone called Neil, and he is very helpful. So far I have not had one single transaction declined (since Dec 2012). I have had to raise a few claims, but all been approved, and their rates are very competitive too.

Dunno about problems but I have got two missing cashback claims open at the mo (one tracked and confirmed at £0 and one, worth about £20, that didn't track at all) and only ever had to open two ever in the 2-3 years I've been using them.

Do these relate to specific companies? I've used TCB for 18months now and not had an issue with tracking. I have noticed though that some companies take a long time to pay out. If I remember correctly, TCB also has something in place to match other cashback sites if they're offering more cashback

One is only for a quid or so (Bespoke offers) so not too bothered about that. The other is a £30 cashback from RAC, though looking at their recent reviews it seems I'm not alone.
