    Hi, I changed gas suppliers via quidco back in March and have just logged on to renew my car insurance through them and I have a payment from my new gas supplier that says 'validated'. What does this mean and when I can expcet to received it??

    thanks!

    Sorry if this is in the wrong place:o

    As far as I am aware 'validated' means that your new gas supplier has validated this transaction - you will need to wait until Quidco receive the payment from them before you get paid - From past experience it averages about 30 days, but in some cases takes 60 days or more. They then pay you on the first of the month if you are using BACS.
    If life gives you lemons, make lemonade.;)

    yeah validate mean the retialer or in your case gas supplier has said 'ok' to paying the money, but hasnt actually paid it yet, dont hold your breath either, i waited over 2 months on validated for sky HD, just came thru the other day finally.

    mkae sure you add your bank details before it goes thru other wise you will have at least another 10 day wait on the money as they hold anything for 10 days after changes or new bank details are added

    Hi Guys,

    I have been reading loads of posts all over the forum on how to make daily money. But could someone please explain to me how Quidco works? how can you do daily clicks without actually having to buy anything? sorry if I sound thick/stupid, but if someone could explain it to me, that would great!;)

    thanks

    Have a read of EagerLearner's thread here:

    She's an absolute pro on this subject and has a guide which she'll send you if you want it.
    As far as I know, it works on the same principle as cashback for buying things, but instead of buying things, you are doing searches and clicking on to websites who will (presumably) pay the cashback websites for each click made on to their websites, then they give you all or part of the cash. Hope that makes sense, I tend not to ask about the how and why tbh, just do the clicks and enjoy the free cash! Its not a lot and takes a bit of time every day but every little helps!

    what is this and is it any good?

    thanks
  • quidco is a cashback site than offers you money back when you buy things for example.

    sign up to quidco go through site to access another like play.com and they give you 5% cashback for example.

    I have earned nearly 2k in 3 years using quidco just buying things i would normally online.

    also worth using topcashback.

    cheers, ive been looking at getting some deals from play.com etc seen alot of deal websites mentioning quidco.

    So it basically works as a further discount from the rrp?

    how often does it pay out.

    Quidcos great but check out topcashback, wepromiseto and cashbackkings
    too all similar sites. Sometimes they give better cashback , you need to compare them with each other.
