Quidco or Greasypalm???

Sorry if this is in the wrong place.

I need to renew my car insurance and Churchill will save me around £200 per year when I change. Both Quidco and Greasypalm are offering £70 cashback but which will be quicker to pay the cash? :confused:
I'm new to both of these sites and haven't yet had a payout but my balance is slowly creeping up on both.
Thanks

    Not sure about paying speed. In the last six months greasepalm have declined payment on large cashback citing no tacking record. So I have diverted to Quidco and topcashback sites.
    main stream media is a propaganda machine for the establishment.
  • Quidco much more reliable. I never use Greasypalm any more, had trouble getting query sorted and never got the cashback I was entitled to.

    My Greasypalm cashback for Prudential car insurance was not forthcoming for 4 months. I then got a message that it was being refused. I sent a message back saying that I was not happy and that if they did not respond within 8 weeks I would complain to the FSA. 2 days later cashback was in my GP account. (FSA said to me it was something they they may investigate but I would have to give company 8 weeks to respond)

    Quidco is a sure fire thing only for those paid out ?? I took a Churchill car insurance policy out after clearing cookies and all the witchcraft stuff but was refused with no specific reason. The cashback was supposed to be £60 but turned into nothing.

    My daughter used Quidsgone on Saturday last week for a car insurance with More Than but up to today has not tracked so yet again looks like another £70 quidsgone ! I would try topcashback or greasypalm as they surely must be better then this outfit.
  • I used Quidco on monday night for Churchill car insurance, it tracked within a couple of hours and the following day it was validated! I havent used the other cashback sites so can't comment on those.

    Churchill tracked immediately, and validated from December, then in February came up as "unsuccessful" ticket closed.... so best of luck
  • I got mine through Quidco, at the time £80, it was tracked all the way through and was paid after 4 weeks with no problems

  • I tried Halifax Home Insurance with Quidco using firefox as a browser and have just received my £50 cashback. Everything they said occurred, although it took about 3 months. However with introductory discount and cashback, although I've saved approx £250 over my previous Home and Contents Provider, I could possibly have got it even cheaper by doing a little more research with other providers.

    You do need to be careful though as a friend to whom I recommended Quidco had already found that SAGA's Home and Contnets Insurance was significantly cheaper than Halifax. I looked at Quidco which was advertising a £68 cashback as a result of buying it via their site.

    When my friend tried this, the quote he got from SAGA via the Quidco site was £70 more than the quote he got direct from SAGA! So all I would say is check directly with the providers site first and then confirm that you get the same quote via whichever cashback site you use.

    I use quidco for my cashback and ive had no problems with payouts.

    Infact my home insurance with NatWest will be just £28 after I get my £100 cashback. If you look within the retailer in quidco most will tell you the average payout time (labeled as payout speed) so that should give you a good idea of how long you have to wait.
