    Just looked on TCB. There are no transactions on my account. Should it not show yet?
    Thanks
    Tmobile Sim only £80 Topcashback too good to be true?

    Cashback tracked. It took TCB about 9 hours after a late night (early morning?) transaction.
    They usually send a e-mail automatically.

    I hope you've done everything correctly, i.e. cleared the cookies first. Also IMO it's better to use IE for such transactions.

    No, its the first time I've used them and I used Firefox but went through their link. I didn't clear cookies. Nothing shows in my account. Can I cancel this contract if it doesn't result in cashback?
    Thanks

    It's too early to say, but have I not directed you earlier to Martin's guide: Top Cashback Sites?
    Rule 5:
    Consider clearing your cookies

    Cashback sites track your visits by putting cookies (little bits of info that identify you to a specific retailer) onto your computer. Many other sites e.g., comparison sites also add their own cookies.

    So always ensure when making your purchase that you click through to a website from the cashback site and not from anywhere else as the rule's normally 'the last cookie win's'. To be doubly safe, if you're expecting big cashback, clear your computer's cookies first to ensure the cashback is tracked.

    Cheers, no haven't seen that before. I definitely clicked the link from the site. What about TMobile is it easy enough to cancel?
    Thanks

    I'm just not sure how you get the cashback with Quidco etc. Can anyone advise?
    Use TCB instead.

    ...
    All online purchases have at least 7 days cooling off period.
  • Sometimes its easier just to go for the cheapest cash deal than rely on cashback sites that don't always deliever leaving you paying £10.21 per month with no cashback compared to £6 deals that don't rely on cashback discounts.

    As I said above there is almost no risk because you can return the sim within 7 days.
