Has anyone actually had £40 confirmed (payable) through Quidco from Halifax yet?

My Quidco has tracked on 14th Jan
No sign of a payment date yet.

My switch completed on 22 Jan and I got the £100 from Halifax on the 23rd Jan.

I'm not sure how long it should take for a payment date to show on Quidco. Does anyone know?

Can be several months until you get a payment on cashback sites. If the purchase has tracked, it's a matter of sitting tight.

Can I switch an empty account for this offer? It has no money in and no DD's or SO's.

Do the terms on Quidco say you need to have any money in or any DDs or SOs?

Guys can I ask...cab you get the 40 from quidco on opening just a normal halifax current account and not the reward one? After reading their conditions I'm not sure? Thank you...

This makes it pretty clear:

£40...
...for using the Current Account Switch Service to transfer into a new Halifax Reward Current Account and close your old account held elsewhere

Has anybody received this payment from Quidco yet? I'm still waiting from the 9th December, still only showing as tracked.

Based on the quidco site it can take anything from 6 weeks to 3 months for the Halifax payout. Often they are done in batches as well - so may only be transferred every couple of weeks.

You can always send a reminder via quidco support.

PS Cashback can take some time to pay out - I nearly had to wait 9 months for a payout once despite it tracking on the date of purchase!

Yes - but it might be worth paying £5 in so there is something to transfer over.:D

If you want to get the £5 a month for the reward account after its opened you will need 2 direct debits and pay in £750 a month. But for the £100 switch and £40 cashback you don't need anything at present - but Halifax can of course change the rules at any time.

The Co-op changed their rules recently - requiring 2 DDs to be transferred in to qualify for their switch incentive whereas before it could be two DD and/or standing order and before that nothing at all I believe. Always check the detailed terms.

No payout here, but I only switched in early Jan. It was showing Tracked by the next day though.
