    Hello so I'm new to this... U apply 4 the topcashback credit card...? And get cash bk??? Is it only on specific items or??? X

    It is not a credit card, just a cashback site. https://www.topcashback.co.uk. All you do is go to that site first, before visiting your retailed (Argos, Ebay etc). You then get cashback on every purchase you make. It varies from retailer to retailer. Some take longer than others.

    Not exactly, no. Topcashback is much like Quidco, except that it doesn't charge you £5 a year, it normally pays slightly more cashback than Quidco, and it's much more reliable than Quidco at paying out.

    Topcashback also paid out its members not so long ago when DGM hit financial problems - Quidco chose not to pay its members, and those members lost a lot of money as a result.

    As I said, it seems utterly pointless to be paying Quidco £5 a year to provide a poorer service than Topcashback, but people still do it. :o

    quidco had an exclusive on a phone deal recently, so I went with them for the post office thing too. I am hoping my annual £5 isn't due before the post office cashback is sorted out, and I'm going to use TCB in future for anything that's not quidco exclusive.

    Another thumbs up for Top Cash back - i've earnt about £260 out of them this year on purchases I was going to make anyway - that is a result :)

    The more cash back you earn the more bonus they give you as well and if you like you can get your cash back paid in Amazon vouchers which gives you even more for your money.

    I raised a manual claim with Quidco on 5th July too and never heard anything either.
    Guess its just more waiting.

    Exactly the same here :(

    hav ppl started using the new card? is it necessary to use the card for cashback money?

    I have used the card, as soon as i got it really & still nothing showing for me on TCB :(
    Just to win anything would be great!!
  • Hi, can anyone tell me if they've received their £50 cashback from the PO credit card account

    I opened one in Jul and still cannot get the cashback. Does it take ages, or am I just having difficulty?
  • I got my cc in July and my TCB account tells me that the cashback is due to be paid:) by the Post Office on 30/9/11

    If it was via Quidco, the conditions were to raise a claim with them at once, and Quidco T&Cs did say it would take 4 months, so waiting patiently - but do raise a claim.
  • Still no update on my claim raised 13 Jul. Their stats on quidco now suggest someone has had a successful payment within 90-180 days of claim submission
