  • Dunno - might be once per pay cycle??
    LBM = 10/10/10
    Debt at [STRIKE]14/10/10 = £56936.28[/STRIKE] --- 17/04/12 = £49673.01


    You cannot eat an elephant in one mouthful, just take a bite at a time!
  • Have earned around £10+ from checking in since the iPhone app launched - They always change where you can check in and recent ones have been HMV, Carphone Warehouse, Dorothy Perkins, T-Mobile, Jessops, Halfords etc,

    As soon as you check in the amount becomes confirmed and payable on your Quidco account straight away:money:

    do you get to check in at the same shop more than once or the check in deal is a one off only?

    They seem to come and go randomly - I have checked in at the same Carphone Warhouse about 6 times in the past 8 weeks.

    I guess technically you could use a touch if you where able to connect to wifi within the area of the store.... but most likey iphone only as you'd need the 3G connection.

    Yes you have to allow it to know your location otherwise it wont be able to locate check in deals close by - When you open the app along the bottome it states - Nearby, Search, My Quidco, Settings & Help.

    Under settings you can check that you have the location settings turned on and under the 'Nearby' button it will show all check in places local to you.

    By the way you don't actually have to be inside the store to check in - I have checked in at stores despite being on a bus going past certain stores!:rotfl:
