T-mobile Cashback loophole. Get £55 and free minutes for nothing.

Basically what you do is sign up to T-mobile's 30-day rolling contract sim at £10/month and keep it for 3 months. In return you get 100 minutes and 100 texts plus one booster. If you do this through topcashback, you get £80 cashback. First month is £5 and the next 2 months is £10/month. So if you cancel after 3 months you will pay out £25 and receive £80 so a profit of £55 for nothing. Just ordered mine and it tracked at £83.22 so it seems to work. Hope that helps someone.

    On quidco, the same offering of £80 has something about the tariff

    £80 "for pay monthly mobile contracts on £20 - £35 plans (including SIM only contracts)"
  • It won't work on quidco for that reason, you'll only get like £15. But doing it through topcashback will work. Also sun cashback only gives you £40. Your best bet is to do it through topcashback as it will track within a day at £80
  • It is low price offer from T-mobile for get more costumers.

    Unless topcashback have made an error on their site - usually quidco and topcashback tie up with the offerings.
  • I don't know but I would't risk it with quidco. It tracked at £83.22 for me on topcashback when I ordered mine. I plan on having it active for 3 months then cancelling it as that is what is required to get your cashback.

    Tracking is one thing, getting it approved and paid...
    Anyway hope it works for you. I just think it might be an error.

    Ok So it's been 3 months and I have received my money from topcashback and it is in my bank account. I have called up and cancelled T-mobile so it looks like I made £55 from nothing. It is still going on so it is possible to do it even now.

    When the cashback turned into 'payable'?
    Have you called at the end of the 2nd month to give one month notice?

    I got it on around the 16th december 2010. It turned payable on the 28th february 2011. I didn't give any notice, just phoned them up and asked to cancel. They said you can either turn the sim into a pay as you go which is instant or wait 30 days and the sim will cancel. I chose to turn it into a pay as you go and they said it would be done in a few hours and they wouldn't charge me anymore money.
