Free money from quidco with credit cards

Options
Ive just noticed that there are a few credit card companys offering cash back via quidco if you take out a credit card... doing a quick add up you could get £140 in total.... has anyone tried this yet??

    Its ok if your not going to get into debt and not planning on getting any other finiance in the short term, multiply searches and applications in a short time can cause chaos with your credit rating.
    If it doesnt pay rent sell it.

  • I normally only take cards out for the offers and not the cashback.

    I use them once - claim the incentive, then cancel the card.

    I am surprised the credit card companies still let me take out their cards.
  • Egg didn't track for me as the site convieniently goes down at the final stage of the application so even though you've been accepted it doesn't track, quidco sees it as non successful!
