Is this a good deal ?

  • Generally, Topcashback is more reliable that Quidco at actually tracking and paying out, and with TCB it has been reported that its a lot easier to chase missing cashback than with Quidco.

    Some people can use Quidco no problems, but judging by reports it's just not as consistent basically.

    There are a few threads dotted around regarding Quidco/Topcashback which can make interesting reading sometimes :-)

    Reliability and no annual fee.
    Also, you will not find the same deal for t-mobile at quidco.

    Thanks Grumbler. I still can't see how I go about getting the cash back. Sorry, I'm not sure how it works. Is there a link to the phone deal?
    Thanks

    Hi Party Animal

    You register with your chosen cashback provider. You then find the appropriate retailer. It should tell you details of the cashback you should receive. There will be a link to the retailers website. Click on that link and make your purchases. The cashback provider should track the purchases you have made because you've gone via their website. You will then receive the cashback at some point afterwards.

    I wouldn't do it at the same day though if the contracts are on the same name.
    Otherwise you can even open the second account at TCB for extra £5 RAF bonus.


    Sounds like a plan - they're going to be in different names anyway, but may as well do one in my account and then refer my Dad for the 2nd one. Thanks Grumbler :)

    Have you read Martin's guide that I posted the link to?
    Is there a link to the phone deal?
    Best deal on an orange san francisco?

    It's £90+£10-£5(cashback), not £90 though.

    For t-mobile if you need it:
    T-mobile Cashback loophole. Get £55 and free minutes for nothing.

    At t-mobile you buy sim-only contract.
    You buy the PAYG phone at prepaymania (or elswhere) and unlock it (if it is locked, free) to use with the t-mobile sim.

    Thanks Grumbler, sorry for being a bit slow. Can you really unlock the San Francisco for free?
