    Steve, sorry if I seem to be nitpicking but the point of my reply was to question the statement that by clearing your Cookies, it would track with Quidco. That clearly is not the case, as myself and others on here will confirm.

    Yes, I accept your point and I agree that it is a valid one.
  • I have been with Quidco for over a year and received about £500 for various things. There have been a lot of hints here, but one thing I would mention is that when you set up your BACS details, put the minimum payment as 0 or very, very low. It took ages before I got paid for anything and I was quite upset by it, but as soon as I reduced the minimum premium things started coming through like magic!

    I think they did have a few problems chasing up things last year, but took on more staff. So saying, I am still waiting for a bingo site to pay out and M&S, but that is the vendor, not Quidco's fault.

    I love Quidco and am happy to recommend it. When you think of it, I would have had to receive a salary increase of about £620 to get cash of £500. I think it's great.

  • If you don't make very many transactions online per year, I think it's best to use Topcashback - they offer pretty much the same % of comission as Quidco but they don't charge you any subscription fee either so you get ALL of your cashback.

    I swear by cashback sites. I've had £175-ish back in the last few months, all money I wouldn't have otherwise had! Just don't rely on it because there are odd occassions when it doesn't track.

    Ebay may be 45%, but it's not as good as it may first appear. The cashback is based on Ebays charges to the seller; it is not based on the price paid for the item listed.

    Ebay is now 50% on Topcashback :beer: Even if it is just the percentage of the listing charges or what-not, t'is better in my pocket than theirs!

    Just got life insurance through quidco with sainsburys.

    They are paying £70 per policy.

    Did hubbys first and it tracked within 2 days. Then decided to do mine, and thats tracked too!

    Only £5 odd each per month too.

    So thats £140 coming my way! Thanks Quidco.

    Would you be so kind and advise me how to do this, please. I have now done this.


    Go into firefox, click tools, then options and go to privacy.

    Agree to accept cookies and keep them 'till I close firefox'

    Seems to mostly work :)
