    Thanks to op for this one. I did 'slip up' a little bit on my first order. Ordered dear Zoo £3 and open the barn door £2.50. Only got £3 cashback on dear zoo didn't read t and c correctly! Did better with next shop for hubbie. Open the barn door is a really small book and not worth the money imo.

    Hi all,

    Not sure if this has been posted, but Topcashback have an offer with Amazon from 10th-22nd September where they are offering 100% cash back up to £5 towards any book on Amazon so technically making it free.

    If the book is more expensive, you get a £5 discount. Definitely worth a try : )

    Apart from this current (small) transaction using the link (thank you) I have not used Topcashback for a long time. This is what is on my account today:

    Can you please tell me what the procedure is now to get the special £5 Amazon voucher and how does it arrive?

    Thank you

  • Crimson did you only purchase something at 0.01p? It's 100% cashback on book up to £5 so you would have to buy a book at £5 to get £5 cashback which would be payable through your topcashback account to your bank or in Amazon vouchers

    This offer is limited to a certain amount, first 20,000 rings a bell it may be more though. Tracking might not show because the redeem limit has been exceeded?

    No I do not think it is that.

    All our orders were placed at more or less the same time and other people have placed orders since then and they have tracked.

    Thank you, Cheapchick. I misunderstood so thank you for explaining! I bought a second hand book for 1p (plus postage.)

    I don't think mine worked the first time so I was going to try again, but I can't work out if it's finished early?
    Something about 101% ?

    I just had a quick look. From what I can tell the offer is still on until 23.59 tonight unless they reach the maximum no before then, but TCB should clearly say when this happens and the offer has ended. Looks like the same terms and conditions - you still get cashback on purchasing one book up to £5 maximum - but they're now calling it a percentage cashback instead of a monetary value ie up to £5. The deal is the same, they're just giving it a different title. They probably did this to make it a bit clearer for those thinking they could automatically get £5 back regardless of their spend. And I think the reason yours shows as 101% will be because you get a 1% topup bonus on some transactions.

    If you've tried it before and it didn't track, I'd make sure you clear cookies etc before trying again, to give you the best chance of success. Good luck!
