Jackpotjoy/Cyberslots etc - which one?

I am thinking of joining one of these through Quidco this morning (as can do it now just been paid. I know JJ offers £20 through quidco and Cyber £10 - there are others but these two just popped into my head. Obviously from a quidco point JJ is the better of t he two, but which site have people found is better for actual winnings - I think i did see someone post last week they won £170 at JJ? - That would come in handy right now.
No Longer works for MBNA as of August 2010 - redundancy money will be nice though.

    We played Jackpot joy last week to get the Quidco cashback - I did Bingo and won nothing but Mr EL played Blackjack - he not only won his £10 deposit back, but also won another £23 too, so he was very happy. Good luck whatever you decide!

    In terms of user-friendly-ness (!) I'd definitely recommend JackpotJoy. Oh, and I won money there too! Cyberslotz was a difficult site to work for me and didn't seem to be of the same quality. Just be careful with Jackpotjoy because if you agree to a sign up bonus (when I did it they matched the amount that you deposited) that money is not withdrawable. I believe it 'plays' with your 'real' money first and then the 'bonus' money, but if you go to withdraw then the 'bonus' amount that you were awarded is deducted. So just be careful... you might think you have more available to withdraw than you do. Just say no to the bonus if you want to keep it simple!

    join cashback junction for £20 at cyberslotz. itsthe same payment as quidco. own by the same as freefivers and pays more on cyberslotz and bingoliner.....

    cyberslotz is the best out the two i've bombed out on jackpotjoy everytime iver played it...
    If i upset you don't stress, never forget that god aint finished with me yet.
  • Best I've done on Jackpotjoy was break even on the deposit & take the cashback/points but I've always come away in profit playing ice king on cyberslotz. read the ts & cs carefully on the sign up offers though & make sure you understand what you have to do to be able to withdraw your winnings.
  • well i have so far completed jackpot joy, bingos.co.uk and gala bingo. I have had the cash back from the first two and gala has tracked but not paid yet. once i am out of debt i will work through all the others. i must say though on gala it was the same user names winning all the time, very unfair :rolleyes: never 'won' anything on any site though only got my cash back.

    How do you not agree to the bonus when you sign up with JPJ? By the sounds of it it complicates matters, but it looks like it's automatic when you register and deposit...

    There was definitely an option to not have the bonus when I went through the registration process but that was a while ago. And it was in very small print if I remember correctly! :rolleyes:
