    Hi there,

    I know to make sure (as much as possible) that all clicks track that I would need to delete cookies between visits to different sites. However, is there a way that I can clear only those cookies? I would imagine that by clearing all cookies I would lose all my stored details everywhere and have to manually enter my user names and passwords constantly? If this is the case then it would make online banking etc a nightmare and probably not be worth it for me.

    Many thanks in advance for any replies/advice you can give me.

    Hi all,

    Well as you can see from my signature I am up and running on the daily clicks. I started mid-late September and did get some bonuses for signing up but cannot remember how much.

    Am doing it religiously everyday but think I may take Thursday nights off as I have a uni course in the evenings.

    Thanks to Eagerlearner for pointing me in the right direction :D

    Wow, Lilith! I am seriously impressed, I could never manage to reach that - is it ALL on free clicks, even the Piggypoints?

    I'm trying my hardest, though I can't help but feel the sites that take the first £5 of your generated income are a bit of a rip-off when it can take so long to make it that far in the first place. I may give up on them completely, as I am finding this very time consuming even fitting it in between other things. I will keep going with the other sites, though. :)
    I reserve the right not to spend.
    The less I spend, the more I can afford.

  • Hi just wanted to say a big thank you to Eager Learner for the spreadsheet and email - fantastic help - will really get going now - and will post a total as soon as I've worked out what is realistic. Will subscribe to thread as you're all so helpful - thanks!!:beer:

    Hi dmv - hmmm, I never lose data when deleting cookies. You may mean deleting Browsing History or Form Data? That is the only time I lose usernames / passwords etc.

    Nyk I know it may not seem worth it but the sites that charge an admin fee are generally the ones that offer the highest realistic levels of cashback, whereas othersites may have lower or no admin fee probably don't pass on as much cashback. You are right to take it slow but do not give up entirely... If you can, give it 12-14 weeks so all transactions have a chance to track and then decide what to drop and what to keep...

    I know it drives me mad too if something doesn't track! I have lots of Quidco ones from 2006 and 2007 still being queried, hoping that the next Amnesty will clear some of those.

    WELCOME to all the newbies and hope you are enjoying seeing those initial bonuses start to add up!

    Remember to let me know your current total so I can add it to page 1. I will do this at the end of each month.

    Hi EL

    My total for 2008 as at end of September is £410.08. This is actual money in the bank.

    Cheers, Marie :)

    With regards to end of month totals, are we talking pending, validated or actually paid to our banks?

    If it's paid, it's £0 for me as only been going a week :o

    I'm registered on about 10 different sites and run them all through Internet Explorer and just delete all the cookies between each visit to avoid mix ups. It doesn't always work but it's worth a try. On 2 occasions, I've had cashback and points paid on what I thought was the same transaction but I've also had transactions completely fail to track. It's maddening when it's a financial one! :mad:

    I'm registered on 12 and naturally can't do them all each day, but do have many that don't seem to have tracked. Erdoh is the worst culprit, it hasn't tracked on any of them!

    Do you have a program called CCleaner?

    It's free and very useful and you can choose which cookies NOT to delete within that.

    I've just done Erdoh on Cashback Rewards and it tracked within minutes :rolleyes:

    What was I just saying about Erdoh never tracking? :rotfl:
