Hi everyone,
In this instance our highest cashback guarantee can be applied. We are offering 1.1% and I can see Topcashback are offering 15%. Please note we state in the terms of this guarantee 'Any increases will only be applied to the advertised rates and will not include "Top-Up" or "Bonus cashback" increases available on other UK cashback sites.' This will include any additional amounts you receive for being a 'Plus' member etc, the guarantee is applied to the base rate.
Doubling the difference here means a rate of 27.8%. Please be advised to have a good read of our terms and conditions before going ahead with your purchase.
Happy Shopping! What a deal....
Kind Regards,

Just live chatted with quidco and they confirmed they would beat this offer and give 28.9% which would bring a £230 bundle down to about £163

Would double the difference Quidco policy come into effect here
Quidco rate that I can see is 1.1%
TCB rate is 17.25%
So would quidco offer 32.3% (double the difference)? think thats right, it's late

I'd stick to TCB, it's more reliable than Quidco, imo.

They have a maximum 10% flat increase, but that is still up to 27.25%

I think that only applies to certain categories such as gambling. Is anyone willing to take a pint on the quidco double the difference though? Considering it.

If they do it I work it out at the 33.4%

I'd get the bundle with GTA4 and tomb raider for £230. If they did the 33.4% that would work out at £153

it's double up according to their advertised cashback.
TCB 17.5%
Quidco 1.1%
You'll get 18.5%
See their example.
Quidco will double the difference of the cashback rate offered by a rival UK cashback site (for example if a rate of 8% is advertised by a retailer on Quidco and 10% is offered elsewhere by that same retailer with the same stipulations, Quidco will increase the cashback by 4%, thereby upping the total cashback rate to 12%) :wink:

Not sure where you're getting 18.5% from? The difference is 16.4% (17.5 - 1.1) double that gets you 32.8% then include their original 1.1 gets you 33.9%. Unless I'm doing something wrong?

If you'd going to gamble on the quidco double the difference you would have to go with the 15 percent online as you have to give them a URL of the offer

HI Jack,
Can you confirm if I were to buy a console bundle that the increased cash back would not track?
Thanks

Hi Jack, sorry I dont think that was clear- can you just confirm this guarantee is only for the console and not any of the console bundles on offer.
Many thanks!

9 Dec 16#22
yeah I've done it wrong, but anyway you won't get more than 10% on top, therefore it'll around 27 % I guess.

9 Dec 161#23
Be careful everyone. As they have advised they would go by the letter of the T&C etc.. and not common sense.
As the TopCashBack description states "PS4 Consoles", I wouldn't put it past Quidco to deny matching/doubling cashback by saying that it excludes Console Bundles as it is strictly not just "console" but "console and game".
Unless of course they put it in writing that it includes bundles as well.

Thanks for your post. As the rate on TCB is listed as 'PS4 Consoles Excludes PS4 Pro. For Home Delivery and Fast Track Collection' and not bundles, the guarantee can be applied.

Can someone explain to me how i go about getting the quidco 28percent cashback? When i go onto the site it just says 7percent for ps4?
ferrim to rezonegames
9 Dec 16#32
looks like quidco have now upped their % on PS4's so you won't get the 28% anymore. You need to purchase at this price then submit a query using the link towards the top of this posts comments

£16.10 confirmed on Quidco, now I've submitted the claim,will see what happens.

9 Dec 16#34
Now that Quidco knows about the cashback difference between theirs and TopCashBack, they would be silly to not increase their (now it seems) 7.7% cashback to 15% (remember it excludes TCB top up bonuses).
I believe they always had a disclaimer somewhere stating cash back is always subject to change (or words to that effect).
So I believe that by the time cashback is confirmed it will be 15% and they'll say that they decided to increase their advertised rate to 15% therefore there would be no need to double the difference anymore.
Or would they be silly enough to say, "oh we knew TCB were giving out 7.3% more than us but we really want to double that and pay 22.3% in total"?
ferrim
9 Dec 16#35
Thanks, that would be there 7.7% then

Also T&C states:
"Cashback will not be paid for Reserve & Collect purchases, unless specifically stated"
"Cashback will not be paid on any Fast Track orders (pay online, collect in store), unless specifically stated"
Some of the different Quidco rates:
8.8% for Laptops and PCs for home delivery and Fast Track collection
8.8% for all Surface Pro 4’s and Surface Books
7.7% for selected PS4 consoles
6.6% for Final Fantasy 15 for Home Delivery and Fast Track Collection
Note it does not specifically state the cashback will be paid on PS4 Reserve & Collect or Fast Track, unlike for laptops and FF15, so that might also be a get out clause for Quidco too.
Cashback may initially track at a lower or higher rate and update once confirmed, so it might mistakenly track if you don't order for delivery. It could then so easily change to Nil.
I really hate how Quidco likes to be so ambiguous/vague all the time.
