    I've earned £437 in 2 years and nearly double that with Quidco. I booked our hols with on the beach a couple of months ago though as their rates were slightly better and the percentage of just over £1000 made it worth booking through them. I think that might have been a plus members perk and it has not paid out yet so dont want to risk cancelling the membership if it means I might forfeit my cashback claim. iyswim :o

    I have 'several' TCB accounts (through a good rate when you refer a friend) but only one with premium membership. I have looked at when it needs to be cancelled by and set a reminder on my phone to cancel beforehand.

    Go as far as you can see, and when you get there you'll see further.

    Dipdap those cakes are beaut. I'm not even a big cake fan but I'd gladly take a bite out of one of those!

    I spoke to Quidco. Apparently two more of my shops need to go to confirmed before I will get my payout bonus. I was confused because some people here had mentioned not having all of theirs complete but still getting the payout. I'm waiting on BHS and Cath K :)

    I'm in a small minority (it seems) of people who do not want their mothers/parents at the birth. I find it really strange and my mum certainly doesn't want to see me in that state. Having had 2 children I can honestly say that the last thing I'd want at that point in time is my mum and dad peering up my floo. :o But that's just me :rotfl:

    Nope, I totally agree with you.

    Just received an email from TCB telling me the meal deal I purchased did not match their T&C :mad: why then is the offer showing on my account. :(
    Also getting a bit fed up of chasing them for tracking too.

    That's what I wanted to check funnily enough. Sod 'em!

    I too only have one premium account

    so long as you can get one "refer a friend" a year then the extra you can earn always covers the cost

    You're not on your own:) I wouldn't have wanted my parents to see me either, I don't think mum would have helped. She's more of a panic now think later kind of person:). although they did arrive for the aftermath :eek:30 mins after having DD...who didn't want to be born after several hrs of contractions...too comfy I expect:) venthouse soon woke her up:eek:

    :huh:

    Were you taking a punt or did you genuinely think you could claim it?

    I thought it was pretty obvious it was for new members only

    this was on a new account :mad:

    But I'd say it's misleading to be displayed on all TCB accounts if you're not eligible. I wonder how many people have been caught out :o

    I've had 10 go to confirmed, 4 still tracked and 1 sitting on sent to retailer (manual claim) and had the £50 in my account yesterday (I say had, I've already withdrawn it :D )
    Hopefully your other 2 go to confirmed quickly :)
