    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!

    I ordered again, without clearing cookies, I ordered before I read this.
    Is clearing cookies the same as clearing history & why would I need to do this?

    No
    & why would I need to do this?
    Cashback sites can only pay commission/cashback to one "agent".
    So let's say you search for insurance through some comparison site. They will set up cookies and it may be that if you get a quote through them that when you go back and buy that quote it will send the commission to them (that seems fair enough).
    Personally for insurance purposes I either use one computer for quote e.g. home and one computer to buy e.g. work, then the "agent" gtetting commision/cashback cannot get mixed up.
    Other methods are using different browsers or clearing cookies.

    So basically the answer is to make sure another agent you've visited doesn't get commission as that will mean you don't get cashback.
  • Thanks for this
  • Thanks for posting ordered my DD a klutz book for Xmas for £4.49 fab offer
  • I ordered on 15 Sept and have received the book, but have no mention of cash back/transaction in account. Has it taken this long for anyone else.
  • I have lodged a cash back claim, not impressed so far !

    I have done the same. My first transaction using TCB, definitely not impressed. :(

    It is not listed as a visit to Amazon.

    It is listed under visit to "Get reading with Topcashback" you can submit your claim with that.
