  • Thanks. I've just ordered table football between my son and daughter.

    It was reduced from £139.99 to £49.99 :D

    I also went through Quidco so I'll get 20% back eventually :D

    Thanks again x
  • b.u.m.p.!!!!
  • I received the footy table today. It is so much better than I could have hoped, for the price, and Quidco has already tracked £10.50.

    It's full size, excellent quality and it wasn't too difficult to build either (although I did put the little men in backwards first time round :o ).

    I can't wait to see the kids faces on Christmas morning. Thanks again OP

    Has anyone actually received the cashback offered via Quidco.com for using
    Alternative Gifts Limited as my payment has only been validated since I purchased 14/12/06.Speaking to Stewart at Alt.G at the moment and sent an enquiry to Quidco.Appears they are not listed anymore on Quidco.Stuart says he uses only one of his three cashback affiliates companies as there may have been problems.He will begin his investigation now to see if anyone else has yet to be paid as they have to pass on around 20-30% of the sales fees
    and he is not happy about customers being duped.More to follow.................

    After being advised by Quidco that Alt.G affiliate take around 3 months to pay out,I see that my March payment has now switched to April.Still validated though.We will wait and see if it arrives.

    Thanks for your recent update Unique Earthling on this.

    Anyone expecting a payout from Alternative Gifts can forget it......

    This is what Quidco have just said

    Alternative Gifts withdrew from Quidco at the end of December 2006, so
    given the amount of time that has passed since your transaction was
    made, it doesn't look likely that they will be paying your cashback to
    you. Apologies for this.

    Kind regards,
    Stuart

    I have emailed Stewart Fairweather who is the boss at AG.He previously said that he had paid an affiliate,clearly the cash was not passed to Quidco.I have asked for the affiliates details.

    I wait for his reply shortly.
  • Thanks for your update on this. I'm a bit confused though because mine has changed from validated to received this weekend and is scheduled for payment currently.

    I'm still waiting on £40 from British Gas and £25 from chit chat bingo though (since december) which I'm beginning to doubt getting.

    Hi
    At last Quidco are paying up(come on guys they have had this in their accounts and it's taking some chasing)Originally they had said they hadn't been paid(even up to yesterday).How many payments can they miss?

    This is today's email

    Hi again Corrado,

    It looks like we received a lot of long-delayed payments from merchants
    today, so I'm happy to have been wrong in my last email to you! As we've
    now received the amount, it should be paid to you at the end of this month.

    Thanks,
    Stuart

    So if it's not showing 'received', get your claim in.

    If the boss at Alt.G said he's paid it to Webgain(the affiliate) I had no reason to think he was lying.

    I do wonder how many other cashback payments might not be passed onto Quidco members.........this has been a very hard £10
    to get.
    Don't just give in pursue the company for payment and the affiliates details.

    Quidco seem to have a wait and see attitude.
    You should not have to wait months they should take more responsibility towards members payments.

    I have posted today on the Vent board regarding Quidco.
