As the subject for this post is "Free Carling Lager" you could argue that you weren't really the target audience

you'd have to pay me to drink Carling :confused:

With different receipt, yes

Nice work. So far we've had two successful Checkout Smart claims and PayPal payout is due on one from re-use on iPint. Since we still have another (week old) receipt to put through iPint, we're wondering if we need to open a new Carling account on another device.

This seems to be better than first thought... With many more free Carlings!

Free pack 1: purchased 4 pack and claimed through Clicksnap

Free pack 2: download iPint and enter the promo code from your first pack for a second free pack through the iPint "four pack rewards"

Free pack 3: same as step 2. Use the code from that free pack to get another free 4 pack. I waited for the cashback from the 2nd free pack to validated and payed to my PayPal from iPint (payments done on Thursdays)

iPint "4 pack rewards" seems strange. The offers appear in the app. There's the £20 off a football shirt through Kitbag, a few others for Now TV and there's always one for a discount for Carling. This seems to vary from £2 off to a Free four pack.

You can see the offers BEFORE you need to enter your code though. So it's worth closing and reloading the app a couple of times a day and waiting for the Free four pack to appear.

After I'd entered the code for my free pack in step 2, the iPint offers for free four pack disappeared and became £2 off a 12 pack. However once I'd made a withdrawal request and the cash was transferred out to my PayPal, another free four pack offer appeared.

Not sure if there's a pattern to this or not. Maybe they only give out so many free four packs a time? Or whether it is related to how many you've claimed.

So far I've had 3 packs. Granted it's carling but 12 free beers is 12 free Beers! Surely iPint app can't just keep furnishing me with this....

Eurgh Carling!!!

Whats that? Free you say? Tell me more...

Have you tried the carling app if you've not used your receipt for the clicksnap app then it should be valid ( if the timing is ok too ) there's a code inside the wrapper worth a try.

yep Im the doofus who just bought 4 Carling's instead of nice beers, not realising the offer has ended :P

Got £3.75 confirmed
Thanks everyone

Thanks for that

There is no charge on iPint as there is no minimum withdraw but regardless of when you request the payment it's always payed on the following Thursday hth

Glad you guys having luck with iPint. I registered and it said an account is already registered to you device and to contact support to login with a different account. No idea what the account is as this the first time I have used the app and registered an account.
I have been talking back and forth with support for 3 days now. They just got back to say there must be another account registered with your device!!!
So I replied yes that is why I am contacting you!!! wtf!!
Nightmare!

Quidco paid and I put the code into the app and then scanned my second purchase receipt it's been accepted and looks to be transferring to PayPal my only concern is there's no mention about any charges as checkoutsmart usually charge for redemption of less than £20 but there wasn't anything I could see about that on the carling app.

Same happed to the wife and me.

Quidco paid out but receipt declined on Carling app.

Update...

After uploading my receipt in Clicksnap, I uploaded the same receipt in iPint for a free 4 pack (accidentally, I didn't actually mean to,I was playing round with the app).

Clicksnap tracked after 24 hours. But I had a notification from iPint today that it has been rejected. It said this was because the date wasn't shown. This could be true as I can't be sure if uploaded both photos (was a double sided sainsburys receipt).

However the app does let you upload another receipt after rejection. So there is a second chance, it's not a one shot. I've bought another pack and uploaded the new receipt.

Be interesting to see if anyone has managed to redeem through Clicksnap and iPint with one receipt... Getting the free beer and the profiting £3.75!

To be fair I'm quite happy for 8 free cans!

Got free 4 pack confirmation on ipint app and Mrs too ,so 16 free so far. Carling not my favourite lager but when it's free it tastes even better :smiley:

Nice one. :-)

I entered 3 codes in my iPint app. First code won me a free 4pack, which I claimed. Second one gave me a £2 off voucher and third one another free pack. Do I have to claim the second voucher first or can I ignore it and claim my second free pack ?
Thanks

See my above comment regarding remaining redemptions or check the clicksnap tab of your 'my activity' page.
HTH

tried uploading the receipt but no confirmation nothing been almost 24 hours now?

Mine got declined

Now says redemptions 0 available, which is promising, hopefully will get a confirmation at some point, thanks.

Check your redemptions remaining. It should say zero. Sometimes it takes days for the freebies to actually pay into your Quidco account :smiley:

My Mrs got her free lager confirmed this morning. I had to inform her that she had bought some lager yesterday :wink:

Whilst messing around with the iPint app I accidentally managed to upload the receipt to claim the free pack in there. I've had confirmation that my Clicksnap has tracked, so I'll wait and see if the Carling one tracks with that same receipt or not.

Like you I suspect it won't accept the same receipt, and I also agree I'll probably lose the chance for another go (given that you need a pack code to activate it.) Have to see what happens!

I would pay you to stfu.

Just got mine confirmation and I did it 9am this morning.

Just had my conformation I did it last night don't forget to claim the competion entry it's worth another penny

Many for your help lugsy3 I was very confused. I will wait and see.

Patience they take few days , you don't get confirmation or show straight away like other apps.

Right I tried to upload the receipt again but it says I have already done it. Yet there is no information whatsoever on my quidco or clicksnap account anywhere indicating it has acknowledged my claim for my offer. I consider my self web savvy and I am at a loss. Certainly not for the uninitiated.

This is so complex. I have registered entered all my personal details on quidco, bank details etc. I have linked my tesco club card as requested. Bought the beeer kept the receipt perfectly flat as requested, uploaded am image to the clicksnap app and nothing. No acknowledgment and nothing showing in my account. What a nightmare.

Strange I signed up then just clicked on free 4 pack and then box comes up for code. I don't know , are you signed up?

how do u select them... nothing happens when I click

You have to select offer you want eg free 4 pack or £20 off shirt then enter code to claim that offer.

I see the enter your code here box but when I click it just lists the rewards that seem to be greyed out.. android app

how do I enter the code on the app?

That would be my understanding too...

...game theory might say you could TRY to submit the same receipt for a second time and CheckoutSmart's system MIGHT let it pass through the system [ie a single receipt being used to support multiple CheckoutSmart/affiliate claims in breach of their offer T&Cs] HOWEVER if it got rejected I suspect you would not get a second chance to make another iPint 100% refund claim, ie would have done yourself out of that extra free 4 pack.

So I've uploaded my receipt to ClickSnap.... then downloaded the Carling app and 'claimed' another free four pack from the code on the pack I've got.

I assume I can't just upload the same receipt in the Carling app to claim another £3.75? Given that its administered by checkoutsmart for both clicksnap and Carling I guess they'll reject one of the claims? No worries, I can just go and buy another 4 pack and upload in the Carling app...

I tend to do the offers through clicksnap rather than checkout smart if possible as there's a charge to withdraw from checkout smart unless it's £20 or over which I find is quite a number of months to accumulate to that level.

Tip: Finding the Carling 4 pack code - to enter into the iPint App:
It's lurking INSIDE the plastic wrap in dark grey inkjet print on the medium grey.
On both packs I've seen the 10 character alpha-numeric code was just below the App Store/GooglePlay icons.

ClickSnap is part of the Quidco cashback website (and also 'connected' to CheckoutSmart).
Any validated claims you make via ClickSnap (either via the form on the Quidco website, or via the App) just get added into your Quidco a/c for you to withdraw like any other Quidco a/c balance - eg to your bank a/c or with a bonus on Amazon vouchers or loads of other ways.

I'm a bit late to clicksnap (and I presume it's the same for Shoptize), What is the process for actually making money. Couldn't see exactly on their website.

Thanks op 4 on my account and 4 on the Mrs , free lager for tonight :smiley:

Should it change from 0.00 to 3.75? I did mine last night, no confirmation yet?

No not normally,but they have started messing people about.Declining regularly and making you re upload.

Im pretty sure it says somewhere that it can take them up to a week. Usually it's just a day or a couple of days I think. It's the weekend now though. No need to re-submit if you took a decent photo then it will confirm in due course

Thanks, uploaded now.

Does click snap ever fail to pay out? And how long does it take to get the money back/ money to track?

I've submitted it but it hasn't appeared in my account? Should I wait or do it again?

Thanks for posting - i don't normally check this app for new postings unless something has been added to CheckOutSmart and would have missed out!

Yes I grappled with the same issue for a while. I thought the code would then 'win' you a prize or reward. It doesn't. You select which offer you want first, and then you trade the code from your pack for a voucher from the offer merchant.

So in my case I 'selected' the offer for the free pack, and entered my code, and this opened up access to the receipt submission page for my second pack purchase.

can you explain me how to enter the code, please? I tried to use the app on my phone and my tablet and every time I want to enter the code it takes me to the offers instead.

I have bought a pack and submitted my claim on click snap. I have serperately registered with the Carling ipint app (quick signup with Facebook) and have browsed the pretty poor selection of "rewards".

One, however, is 'free 4 pack of Carling' with 'cashback paid via checkoutsmart'. So I entered the code on there and it doesn't appear to want me to sign up with checkout smart, it just kind of integrates the receipt upload process into the Carling app. Says that checkoutsmart will pay the cashback to PayPal or bank account.

So looks like you can buy one pack, claim from quidco, use the reward code on ipint, buy another pack, and claim cashback via checkoutsmart via the ipint app.

So 8 free cans of Carling.

Heat

Too bad Stella isn't on it, don't think the women could cope :smirk:

been there done that...luckily it was only a small loss

yeah not showing at checkoutsmart app. but need to claim thru carling "ipint" app, to be processed by same checkoutsmart team. have to be different/separate receipts though, and enter promo pack unique code. not sure if need to create separate account for carling.

Great spot OP!

Only one word of caution... as posted from their T&Cs
"This is a limited offer, be quick before they're all gone."

So while the offer period is currently showing as Valid 10-12 Jun ie today Friday to Sunday, you may well find the offer vanishes early, ie MAY not be there to claim by Sunday or even by Saturday.

Tip: With such "limited offers" on ClickSnap ALWAYS check on the day you intend to claim that it is listed as available to claim in the redeem offers - eg if using the App click the camera at top right, then chose store (say Tesco) and 'Today' - ie the date your receipt will have on it IF you purchase - and see the offer is listed as available to select.

(Incidentally the Free Jack Link's beef jerky as Tesco seems to have been discontinued by Tesco. And in my Extra the [other] Beef Jerky's are now in among the Peanut snacks aisle rather than World Foods.)

Nope,that award goes to budweiser and skol

Nothing showing on my CheckoutSmart App/a/c for Carling?!?!
eg
https://www.checkoutsmart.com/deals [have to login with your CoS a/c!]

Ah - think I've discovered what you mean - ie that the Carling iPint App offers cashback that is administered through the CheckoutSmart system...

Good tip though re the App - on that topic:
"First up is ‘4 Pack Rewards’, pick up a promotional 4 pack of Carling Lager, Cider, or Zest from 15th February until the end of 2016 to bag yourself a great reward with every pack. All you’ve got to do is enter the unique code printed on the inside of the pack into our app and you will gain access to a reward pool of cashback on Carling, money off food bills, Now TV vouchers and much more."

However I suspect that'll be covered by
"A claim of this offer may only be submitted once across the CheckoutSmart publisher network which includes CheckoutSmart, cashback programmes, brand sites and other partners."

I guess the best policy would be: (1) claim on ClickSnap and await the £3.75 validated; only then (2) try entering the code on iPint and keep fingers crossed ?
(Though logically no direct connection between in-store receipted purchase and a unique pack code that could have been bought anywhere/time!)

Clicksnap app required for in-store redemption: https://www.quidco.com/clicksnap/app/?amcf=1465566261

I don't particularly like Carling, but at £0.00p i'm willing to give it another go! :smile:

Buy it or dont but noone cares about what you like the taste of.

£3.50 in asda and tesco so possible profit

Britain's best selling beer made with top quality British ingredients. Absolute bargain.

Thanks :smiley:

Can this offer be claimed twice, wife's account and then mine.

you'd have to pay me to drink Carling :confused:

Whooa free lager , cheers , have some heat sir

It's added to your Quidco total and isn't a separate earning but I believe the minimum for withdrawal is only £1 any way

is there a minimum amount needed from clicksnap to withdraw the money?

Woohoo free lager - thank you :smile:
