    I love it too, I won a £100 voucher in one of their competitions yesterday.

    I think I've had about £1500 over the years from them.

  • Re: Quidco.... I love it

    B&Q vouchers ? I saw your post then when i was on there i saw the competition i did wonder if it was there where you had won them x

  • Re: Quidco.... I love it

    What's it all about then? I've been doing pureprofile and only just managed to get to £25 in a year!

  • Re: Quidco.... I love it

    I'd love to know too, I've heard of it but I don't get what it is/how it works.  Would anyone be able to explain?

    Basically you get cashback by clicking onto stores through quidco. The store recognises you clicked via quidco and pays cash into your Quidco account, usually a % of what you spend but sometimes a set fee. You also get free cash by clicking on shopping search sites through quidco- the high street web site pays you 4p every time you use its search engine. OK it's only pennies but I'm past the £600 mark. Some of the home insurance deals are £100+ cashback for buying them. I never buy anything online without checking if the supplier's on quidco too.

    Normally on theinternet, if you click on a banner or advert and  make a purchase, that website will pay a commision to the original site who had allowed the banner on their site.

    What Quidco does is pass back this commision to you the purchaser, instead of keeping it for themselves. Many cashback sites will only give you 50% back of the commision and keep the rest themselves, but Quidco give it all back, minus a £5 a year admin fee, which is only payable if you earn over £5, so if you earn nothing, you pay nothing. £5 is very easy to make though.

    Before you make any purchase via the net, check if Quidco has the retailer listed, they have hundreds there, including all the big names. Each retailer will pay varying amounts/percentages in cashback. You still pay the same prices to non-quidco users.

    The big and easy ways of making cahsback are clicking through the site for insurance and mobile phone contracts as some of these pay £100.

    You can actually make money on bingo.bookie sites where some of them will pay more cashback than they ask you to pay in e.g £20 cashback for a £10 play. You can also make free money by taking out dvd rental trials.

    Also try topcashback for a similar service- I do the same free clicks on each site and the pennies mount up. http://www.TopCashBack.co.uk/ref/mrssparkle is my shameless referral link- I get £2.50 for every new member I sign up who makes their first £5.

    Sare's right about the bingo sites- MSE has loads of info on which ones to do.

    Thanks guys - I've joined and will no doubt now be tempted to spend to accumulate! Dangerous sites like Next, Virgin Vie, Game etc.

  • Re: Quidco.... I love it

    It's a fab site when you remember so use it.  I just got £100 cashback after having sky plus installed but it took aaaaaages to come through.  At least my credit card bill is £100 less now though Big Smile
