Done the bingo and spent £10 and won £12 , though it tells me I have only met 1% of my wagering requirement! So not sure how much I have to spend to get cashback! Will try again tomorrow or later today!!

Fristrating isn't it? I had similar problems on paddypower earlier.

I deposited £10, bet £10, won £16 but it would only let me withdraw £10. :think: :think: :think:

Turns out they had credited my account with £5 bonus money and that formed part of my original stake without me realising.

You can only withdraw any winnings from bonus chips once you have bet, won, bet, won 50 times over :eek::eek:

The cash back will/should track at $40. Your unlikely to withdraw anywinnings though
... Cash back is based on your deposit not winnings hth

So if you simply sign up and upload £10, play a couple of times and leave it at that you'll be a net £30 up?

i also keep all receipts. You just never know when you'll need one

For example, tomorrow I'm going to B&Q to buy another 2 of the curtain poles I got for my living room 2 weeks ago

Not because I need any more but because they have just been reduced. So I'll buy them tomorrow and then return them using the full price receipts

I've done that so many times with B&Q because they always seem to have events on

I found I was forever doing that over Christmas:mad: I thought I would start shopping for presents early online when discounts were about...only to find that further discounts/reductions came in again and again during the lead up to Christmas.

Thanks both

did have £20 bonus money, so guess orginal stake came out of that.

Just been checking the t&c for the wagering requirements and see that bingo is 100% towards it whereas other games are not some only 1.25% :eek: towards it.

In a nutshell, but my thinking was this:

deposit £10 (assume you will lose it)
get £40.40 cashback
Accept cashback in the form of CC points which they top up by 5% so you get £42.42 in CC points
When your CC vouchers get sent out exchange them in a double up instore promo or a 3 or 4 times face value reward

i.e. a £10 stake is worth either £42.42, £84.84, £127.26 or £169.68 depending on what you exchange your points for in Mr T

Bear in mind there are lots of sites offering similar deals. Also you can do each deal in your name and OHs name. Plus you can refer people to TCB for more cash

And remember, all this assumes you lose your original £10 stake. You might not, you might get lucky and win something
