So what you're saying is - that it's impossible to view check ins only, like before the app was updated.

Also, what you say in a way is correct, but also debatable. If i decide i don't want to buy anything in that store (or don't need to) then the check in is more money, even if it's just 5p. A shop could offer 100% cashback, but if i'm spending no money in the store then it may as well be 0%.

It looks like the stores or Quidco are phasing out the check ins. Good while they lasted. At least the wife will be happy we no longer have to check in at various places any more.

the other thing the old app did better was the distance setting . When i check nearby it gives stores upto 20 mile away . granted im in the sticks but even so need fixed . I'm on android 4.3

Most likely the shops involved with checking-in deals were getting fed up with paying 5/10p a time to see little reward in increased customers. Considering the number of stores available to check-in at has decreased quite a bit in the last 6 months, more stores are redrawing from the scheme.

I did notice in the past few weeks of the "old" app, it would fail to load when selecting check-in deals only.

Hi JustAnotherSaver,

Through feedback from our members and retailers we are concentrating more on the in-store offers.

A member who is shopping on the highstreet would much prefer 10% off their purchase than 10p checking in to the store.

I do understand your frustrations if you used this alot, Please don't worry though as we still do have check-ins available for you to use.

Many Thanks

Anna

Hi devizes18193

What you need to do, is register you card and then just purchase as normal with your registered card.

This will then track into your Quidco account within 28 days. You can use the app to see all the nearby deals and see the rates that are being offered on your High Street.

You can also use the app to upload grocery reciepts for our Click Snap service.

We also have voucher codes that can be loaded and then you just show this at the counter.

I do hope this has helped

I booked a holiday for December through Quidco and today RIU declined my cashback. The price of the holiday had been adjusted by RIU reservations and booked through the RIU Class site so I assume as there is no QUIDCO link to the RIU Class Page it looks like my holiday has been cancelled when in fact it hasn't. There seems to be a way out of everything so why offer the 5% in the first place?

Hi hildibobs, funny you should mention that. I have made three separate transactions with Quidco for Riu and not one tracked. I was on the chat with Quidco this morning and wasn't satisfied with the answer. I think we can wave our cashback out the window.

can anyone clarify something about the xmas bonus offer - do all 5 retailers have to be from the same percentage group or can the 5 be from any across the range?

cant seem to find any answer about this from anywhere.

thanks

Across all the retailers.

yeslek

was hoping so - thats an easy enough goal

thanks

Totally agree with you there. Do you know that if you book a holiday on the RIU site and the price comes down you can ring them and get them to adjust the price for you. So I guess I will get my cash back one way or another. My 2nd option is to cancel the RIU holiday Riu reservations booked in RIU class and re-book using Quidco again however the same may happen and RIU reject it again.
