Can I use my Quidco account to do this?

My Dad wants a mobile phone contract, could I use my Quidco account to do this?

I'm not sure so thought I'd ask as I'm sure someone here will know! :)

    Dodgy ground - they don't have to pay out if it is not a contract in your name (they don't have to pay out at all!). I have been lucky, and was able to do my parents home insurance through Quidco, but it really is up to the individual retailer as to whether they pay out on any claim.
    Gone ... or have I?

    Hmmm, not sure what to do then. We both have the same surname and his banking details are in my address so the only thing that wouldn't match with the contract and my Quidco account is the 'Mr' part.

    Could you, possibly.

    Should you, no.

    Sign him up for his own quidco account. He'll just loose the first fiver, but that's OK thats how quidco make there money, its not unreasonable IMHO.
