    i have gone through quidco to get quotes on my car insurance and they have ALL been about £80 to £100 more than when i get a quote through other sites e.g direct line.

    is something going on here?:rolleyes:

    has anyone else noticed higher quotes or is it just me?

    cheers

  • Hi I've Had A Few Cash Claims Thru Quidco But On 2 Occasions I've Had Problems 1 With Comet. I Bought A Laptop Which Never Tracked & Had No Joy From Either Comet Or Quidco Towards Helping Me Both Parties Said That The Money Was Paid From The Other Party.
    Has Anyone The Correct Information.
    Also I Bought My Car Insurance From Morethan Which Says You Get £75 Back But For Some Reason They Only Paid Me £40. I Have Sent 2 Messages To Quidco With No Reply & Have Spoke To A Member Of Morethan Staff & Says It Is Down To Quidco To Pay.
    Any Help Anyone.
    Thanks

    gps - think I was having finger trouble first time I got my buildings & contents insurance, and did it as a combined policy. Having re-done separates, as mentioned, it's coming in far better :D

    Not tried quotes for car ins. yet as policies not up 'till Feb, however, car insurance is SOOO much more variable than house ins, it mat well be worth getting quotes from a couple of the insurers. Mrs GunJack is with esure, so it will be interesting to pop her details into esure via quidco when the renewal notice hits the doormat...

    I have a dodgy "i" key, so ignore spelling errors due to "i" issues, ...I blame Apple :D

    quidco is worth it! £114 back for a £23 spend. And Iuse the internet quite a lot to buy stuff so I imagine I should make quite a bit more back. I've only been a member for a few days though.

    For the first time I have had cashback declined fortunately it is for a tiny amount. The retailer was Choices UK for a dvd, however I notice that they are no longer listed on Quidco and I wonder whether they have withdrawn? would it be worth me perusing? Many thanks
    No Matter what you do there will be critics.

    choices have gone into administration (havent they? im sure this was a few weeks ago...) so that will probably explain why

    How did you get £114 back on just a £23 spend? Would love to know, thanks! :D
