    I am referring to several claims one of which goes back 16 months.  They just keep saying they are chasing but cannot make the companies pay up.  They have never said I have not followed the process correctly.

    I suppose all this hinges on whether you trust Quidco to tell the truth or not. Given that I can compare my experiences over many years with both Quidco and Topcashback, I'm sorry to say I don't.  So I don't use them.

    Quid co have been getting gradually worse for some time now.  I have several claims that are way over 1 year old and they freely admit they are powerless to make the companies pay up.  When I asked them why they then keep promoting these same companies I never get an answer.  It seems that quid co are not fit for purpose but they don't seem to agree with me on that point.

    Sorry if this is in the wrong place, I find it difficult to navigate around on a phone.
    Hearing about people making money from cash back on purchases, I have downloaded the Quidco app onto my iPhone and registered.
    I then used their search field for a store that I want to buy from; it first gives me a ‘redirecting’ message, then I get another screen giving a warning, “This connection is not private. The site may be impersonating to get your financial information……”
    I want to know if sites such as Quidco are safe to use, or should I avoid them?  Thank you

    I am naturally suspicious and hear a lot about scams. It may be easy for you to say that, but how do you know?

    Quidco & other cashback sites use 3rd party co's for tracking.
    That is a normal page.
