    Same here :confused:

    Edit: Just tried again. I went through Quidco, logged in to Virgin Mobile then Copy and Pasted the full url of the mobile from the first post into the url field and got the phone up for £9.99.

    Would this not stop quidco from tracking though by using a different url ?

    I'm not using a different url, this site shortens them so I just extracted the full url by right clicking on the link in the first post and copying it from there.
    Anyhow it worked and Quidco tracked for me too! :money:
    This site has saved me a fortune :money: ...it's also cost me a fortune! :doh:

    Ok heres' what I did:

    I followed the link in this post, logged into my account and added the phone to my basket.

    I then closed the page, went to quidco, > Shop and the phone was in the basket at £9.99... I would think this would track properly now :)

    Thanks OP

    If you are already a Virgin Mobile customer and don't need the SIM then it might be worth actually ringing them up instead. We had to replace a lost/stolen phone with them on Friday, as we didn't need the SIM they knocked £10 off, then because of my wifes top up spned(which is spectacularly low anyway) they knocked another £10 off on their loyalty scheme. All in all the new phone cost £2.99 delivery. And it doesn't rely on Quidco tracking working etc.

    For every £100 you spend on Virgin (PAYG topups or Contract) they put £10 on your red rewards. You can use this to save money on upgrades. Your wife must have spent £100 to get the £10 knocked off the phone.

    For those of us who do not have any red rewards they best option is the quidco route.

    I ordered a few of these (xmas presents) they have been delivered and all contain a sim pack even though they are upgrades. I guess it all depends on who does the packing at the logistics centre.

    That may not be correct. Got a phone for my daughter last week as an upgrade phone because she already has a sim. The phone arrived and so did a free sim card to 'pass on to a friend'

    Followed this and noted what some others had said. So I clicked in and found out that I was not entitled to any bonus money off yet but when I clicked further it still reduced the phone to £9.99 so does this mean if I had had a bonus reduction the phone would have been free?
