quidco tracking

Options
I know there are several threads on quidco, but just have a quick question.

Registered a few weeks ago, but havnt really had time to look properly to today. It mentions either emptying cookies (dont really want to do this) or getting an alternative browser just for quidco.

However, I just ignored these now, and clicked on a couple of the links (hih street web and couple of the survey ones) and they all seemed to have tracked in the my earnings tab.

SOOOO, is its absolutley necessary to delete cookies/get another web browser, and is it likely to cause me major problems if I dont do one of the above.

    You can only use the Kelkoo link once a day for a 10p cashback

    Does anyone know how long it takes for a purchase to show up as tracking and how long to wait before questioning it at quidco?

    Depends on company; quidco will not let you question before time!

    I have had two transactions which failed to track recently. First one with Prudential car insurance which should be £100 cash back and second with Direct Line pet insurance for £17.50 cash back.
    I have no way of knowing if these problems were as a result of not clearing cookies or cache but have now installed the "slimbrowser" recommended by Quidco and will see if things improve. Slimbrowser is an excellent browser, by the way, I now use it all the time which rather negates the purpose.
    It would be helpful if Quidco had some method of checking your tracking like Greasy Palm do.
    I have queried both these transactions and Quidco have a record of me going through their site on both occasions so the problem is tracking, not any failure on my part.

    I know what it means by tracking (I think)...but why do some transactions not track?

    Where do you find the click throughs on Quidco? and what does this actually mean I understand it is a survey page and you get paid eg 5p for going there but do you have to sign up with your information everytime you go to get the eg 5p if so how do you manage more than one click anyway false info everytime?
    Thanks
