Hotukdeals - impartiality?

  • I have an rpoints account but use Quidco instead. Will monitior this one. However, Quick comments:
    They have t&cs, contact us, about us, and their company name and business associations are clear and transparent, which I really appreciate. However no pictures or deal details when viewing thread, expired deals there but not marked as expired (eg the mis-priced Sony Ericsson K810i from Mardshall Ward that went weeks ago), no voting of "hot" so all deals have equal prominence.

    I can tell straight away that this is nowhere near as good as HUKD, from my point of view anyway. There's the numbers game, more users, more / better deals. HUKD has over 3600 viewers in total right now including 521 members, that's on a Monday morning. The specific Rpoints forum has 4 members right now, including myself browsing.
    I will be sticking with HUKD.

    ...edit...
    Oh dear, they only allow offers for sites that have signed up to rpoints. Definitely a no-no for me

    The way to work it is (also applies to MSE & HUKD), find the deal then go through Quidco so you get the benefit.

    Absolutely, that is what I do. In fact sometimes I use a fresh window of Internet Explorer for Quidco when I visit the site (Firefox is my default browser). This ensures that there are no stored cookies that may be in conflict with the Quidco one.
  • Came across hotukdealz.com which has info links on offers and discount voucher codes!
