Barclay insurance and Quidco

Has anybody taken out Barclay's house insurance with Quidco and got the £125 cash back? Looks like a good deal now Zurich have finished with Quidco.

  • yeah got it on quidco tracking just now
    Isn't the knowledge that comes from experience more valuable than the knowledge that doesn't?

    Yes, it tracked very quickly and payment was received into my Quidco account in little over a month.

    What is your definition of tracked quickly. I did house insurance yesterday afternoon and it has not tracked yet whereas the TSB Insurance tracked straight away.

    Still not tracked , what reason should I give when/if I cancel. Slightly embarrassed to say it's because I won't get £125 cashback. I have now found a another reason - quote/premium is higher if you say you pay current insurance by monthly instalments, even though you can still pay Barclays by instalments at no extra cost. So redo quote saying yearly.

    Already taken out contents with TSB, if I now take out buildings with them (after cancelling Barclays) will they pay out on 2nd policy (thinking of Zurich situation here).

    Update it has tracked.

    Has anyone received the £125 through Quidco AND managed to do a "Price Match" through the Barclays "Price Beat Team" and got both payments?

    thanks

    Has anyone managed to secure the cashback for both the contents and the building insurance by doing two separate applications?

    Thanks

    Not me. I tried but had to phone, so missed the Quidco cashback. This was back in Sept/Oct.

    It says on Quidco site '£125 for each accepted application (Not possible with price matching, as that is done via phone). Rate will be dropping in April'

    I would advise if it has not tracked to cancel policy, they seem unable to get this back if it has not tracked, i think you ge about 14 days to cancel if it hasnt tracked by then i think its fair to say you not gonna get it, mine never tracked in june 06, and still have not received it and no doubt ever will
    This is good advice, I bought car insurance from them over 2 months ago. This never tracked, and I have heard nothing since, so £85 they owe me, I will keep you posted if I get it, but not holding my breath! I wish I had cancelled it now.

    I reckon the reason it wasn't tracked is I saved the quote 2 days before i bought it. I then went online 2 days later and the quote I got was higher, so went to the saved quote and bought that! Bad mistake, never again.
