Quidco cashback quick question

Hi everyone
Sorry if this is in the wrong section I've searched and can't seem to find a good place to put it!
I'm not sure if this is a big issue or not. I'm new to Quidco - I've only made one purchase through the site and it was for car insurance through their comparison site. I bought a policy with Admiral through Qudico - £556.95 (cheap for 21 year old!) The cashback stated was £24.09 and it now has the 'tracked' status on my quidco account. However the 'amount' now stated in the tracking box is £696.87. I've checked and double checked and no more money has been taken by Admiral - the amount I've paid for the policy has and remains £556.95 so why does it say £696.87 on Quidco?
I'm not out of pocket at the minute but just wondered whether this will change when I try claiming the cashback once Quidco have it - will this suddenly become an issue or is it simply a mistake?
If it did become an issue could I say £556.95 was the price stated and alongside that it said £24.09 cashback so this is what I'm entitled to even though now the price seems to have gone up?
I don't want to raise any questions with Quidco incase they see the difference and claim something's not right/not entitled to cashback? I'm a bit suspicious because £550 is cheap for cover (although I have £600 excess) and £696 is more like the amount I expected to have to pay for insurance. Highlighting any descrepencies might leave me worse off?
Thanks for any help!
