    Nothing for you to worry about. It isn't income - just a discount on the purchase of goods. Not taxable in any way.
  • I booked flights with Monarch through Paypal offers last August 2008 to travel in October 2008, at the time Monarch were offering £20 cashback per passenger (there were 3 fare paying and one infant) , and that it may take 100 days after travel to receive cashback.

    I am still waiting for this, so I have been busily emailing Paypal, paypal offers and Monarch only to be told today that Monarch never offered any cash back - can anybody help me here? How should I proceed?

    Apologies if this is in wrong place, if so can anybody direct me? Thanks!

    Having the same trouble with my first experience with Quidco. I bought car insurance from Zurich, which hasn't appeared in my account with Quidco. When I try to make a missing transaction, it says it cannot investigate transactions for this merchant. WHY then does Zurich still appear on Quidco's website? Unlike some con-merchants, the insurance is now up and running and I have no intention of cancelling it. FUMING

    You'll be VERY lucky to get any cahsback from Quido on anything!
  • I use TopCashbackl all the time. So far this year I have earned £34 for applying for American Express cashback card, £27 for buying a holiday through Lastminute.com and expect to receive £60 for changing my energy supplier to EDF and lots more. I would have used these sites anyway - I just made sure that when I found what I wanted, I went through the TopCashback site to get the commission. Unlike Quidco, they don't charge an annual fee.

    Good luck earning cashback!

  • I have used a cashback site for the first time being Quidco.

    I have registered etc and i can see the money i have earnt.......but how on earth can they pay me?I dont recall being asked for bank details etc or indeed how i want payment.

    I have gone to the 'settings' tab but this is only asking about a new email address or a new bank account etc.It doesnt ask me to actually register my bank details for the first time.Has anyone got a clue what i am saying?..am getting confused, Thanks

    You might want to be aware of this thread before using Quidco for any large transactions. There have been a lot of problems over recent weeks getting the money out of Quidco, as they themselves admit:
