Double Cashback tracking

I need some advice. I'm taking out a new phone contract and I went through top cash back. I got an email saying it had been tracked. All good. I then got an email from Quidco saying the exact same thing. Guess I should have cleared my cookies.

What will happen? Will one of them just bounce and the other one go through?

    As much as they have tracked, nothing has been paid. When the deal goes through after the X days stated, the phone company or seller will get back to either TCB or Quidco and confirm the deal went through, it really depends on if they confirm with both or either tracker which I'm guessing from their POV would be "who do I have to pay less to". Guess you gotta wait and see.

    one of the persons I know had similar thing happened last June.when te payment time came,none of the parties paid him as both claim that the commission was claimed by another party. As you he had not cleared the cookies too,some other websites might have claimed this commission he thought.
    BUT you could be lucky too.....each these cases always tend to be unique...
    Ifthe amount is small I would try my luck,if big enough I would be wary.
  • Well it was only £15 so not biggie lol. And they were both £15.
