    Applied through Quidco months ago, was accepted and never recieved cashback. Just a warning...
  • Its a bit of a con if the £35 doesn't get tracked:mad:

    Is it easy to cancel your card when you receive it, if you don't spend on it??
  • Mine's just been tracked:T:j
  • I still have not taken advantage of this £35 offer (intending to soon) but thought I would point out that the offer is still on.

    My first ever credit card was an egg card but i cancelled it ages ago, can you reapply if you have already been with them? :confused:

    Applied 16 June. Currently £35 showing as validated for August payment, as is the RSPCA card from MBNA (£20) which I took out the same day.I downloaded the software from Egg who took payment on 16th. and credited £10 today (23rd).So that's £45 from Egg so far. THANKS!
  • Sorry if this is a n00b question, but if they charge you a fee for a BT does it go onto the balance and you get charged interest on that fee?

    Thanks in advance.
    I may be shy, but that doesn't make me an angel ;)
  • I applied at the end of August and the £35 showed up as tracked after 6 days on quidco, which is the current average. I received immediate acceptance online and received the card after 1 week. Once I actually receive the £35 I am going to use the secure messaging facility to ask if I can switch over to the Egg Money card instead.
  • Just to let you know that quidco paid me the £35 without any problems. I rang Egg and asked if they would transfer me to the Egg Money card but they would not. I have to wait a year and then I can apply for it. I have closed my Egg card account.

    All in all, I am very happy - I made £35 for doing very little.

    I should add that quidco are back to paying £20 rather than the temporary £35 but if you wait long enough, they might go back to £35 at some point.
  • Are there any advantages to the Egg Money card - other than stoozing - over the one on which the £35 Quidco cashback is available?
