Totally agree, at first I suspected TCB because they didn't charge an annual fee, but they would not pay out on large sums and then say "their hands are tied and it's with the merchant".... and then disappear into infinity.

Now Quidco are at it, they pretend to pursue claims, yet never have a resolution. I'm willing to bet that despite us not getting any cashback due to merchant tracking issues, Quidco WILL pursue their own cut.... I bet they're all having a laugh in Quidco HQ and preparing for a massive Xmas Quidco bash on our declined transactions...

We need transparency and not on their word, which means nothing.

Same here :smiley: Nice spot OP

Great deal but it is only for new Quidco members? :innocent:

Great deal but is it specific to new Quidco members? :innocent:

Same here :smiley: Nice spot OP

Thank you! Will stack with my Waitrose Coupons that came through the post yesterday :smiley:

Most excellent! :smile:
Thanks the porter! :innocent:

Yep good find.

Hum dinger of a deal. It's gonna get so hot it will help thaw my frosted windscreens

Cheers OP, I'll stock up on booze me thinks!

Has anyone got their £10 for the Quidco Argos cashback last week? I didn't so don't trust these deals any more.

hope it stacks with the 20 off 100 vouchers they have for first time shoppers! (20 off 100 for first 5 shops from now until Feb28)

Does this include Tesco Direct?

Mine says £8.80 cashback for new customers only :neutral_face:

So its £60 spend plus delivery to qualify for this . . . .

do you need shopping delivered by 23.59 4th December or checkout make purchase by 4th December & delivered later next week.

No £50 excluding delivery costs

So £18.80 cash back on a £50 spend at Tesco (for new Tesco customers)? Seems like a good deal.

I'd be inclined to skip the Ocado new customer deal as there's usually better vouchers around. It's unlikely a claim for cash back will go through in addition to the vouchers.

​Says £50 excluding delivery on mines

Will it still be honoured if I use a voucher does anybody know ? I have a £10 off £60 fo Asda but there isn't anything in the T&C's from what I can see

Can someone explain the Quidco thing? do you need to pay for it?

Thanks a lot buddy! I'll be making my shop now :smiley:

The offer says £50 excluding vat and delivery, so you have to spend at least 60?

My experience over the last week has been that using Quidco results in no cashback! At least the coupons are guaranteed! :wink:

Waitrose £40 John Lewis voucher and £20 off £100 first five shops promos are featured on the Quidco page. They should be compatible with this offer. The latter seems like a hot deal - £100 of shopping for £80, minus £5.50 cashback and £10 bonus = £64.50.

Morrison's, £5 off £80. £80 of shopping for £61.50

Yes, I have some £10 off £60 Asda coupons sitting in my online account, at least you know you can rely on them :wink:

I'm just waiting for a delivery... :smirk:

What a dishonest PR spam. Spend 50 to get 10 back. Except its not 50 at all.

Eligible account holders by email only

I've found recently noting is tracking properly with quid, using Topcashback instead.

just speaking to quidco

you must be a new customer to get this cashback

Hang on, so you have to make a "cashback earning purchase", but Tesco and Asda grocery don't give cashback for existing customers do they, so existing customers can't get this deal, right?

Where does it say that?

B*gger, I've just ordered, and I'm an existing customer.

Can someone please confirm which way it is so can cancel as appropriate!

so, no email, no cashback

No, because a lot of food grocery items are charged zero rated vat and not standard 20% rated.

For example, it is possible to purchase £50 worth of cold meat and veg (excluding delivery) to qualify.

I didn't get an email the offer was just there when I opened quidco this morning

Ok, T&Cs

You don't have to be a new customer of Quidco, but if they haven't contacted you directly, you're not in. That excludes me, unfortunately..

Having said that, this is what it told be when I clicked on the OPs link:

Start shopping


So I guess I qualify anyway.. Just cause they said that I did.! I hope.

is this for food only ? thanks

mine didn't even track though, I sent a query but it says their final decision is final and they wont go into any correspondence with it so that doesn't really inspire confidence.

Cheers, I must of missed that, I never read things properly !

+1

Does everyone get the 'you've qualified' message when they click through?

None of the supermarkets ever pay cashback so pointless mines still tracked from october 2014

then recomend your self via a 2nd email adress and get £20 referral fee once the new account makes £5 cashback so all together £30

what does +1 mean ?

Just be aware that Quidco are being quite underhand with these deals.

They deliberately leave out vital details when unleashing a deal, only for it to have clauses in the T&Cs...
Like ex Vat before you qualify and also I noticed this...

4.Quidco holds a list of account holders eligible for this promotion. Ineligible account holders will not receive communications regarding the promotion from Quidco and will not be entitled to receive the £10 bonus.

So if you just clicked on this deal and expected cashback and didn't get an invite/email, you won't get the cashback.

Quidco know people will click on the link and buy, so they win out. If Quidco had any common sense, they would have included an eligibility checker in the deal link, but they'd happily overlook that for greed...

Quidco, i'm onto u :wink:

Okay this issue really needs to be addressed. Its been brought up before, I've asked a quidco rep to answer it, but even though they read and comment on these threads they never mention it.

If they condone these HUKD posts where you can click through to a quidco page and 'activate' the offer while logged in, surely you don't need to be invited by email? I suggest boycotting till we get a clear answer. Making store-specific purchases without using coupon codes just increases the cost of these items.

I haven't had one single deal with the £10 tracked or confirmed yet. Gut feeling tells me we aer not going to get this money either.

It's not clear whether it just has to be on food or new customer and of course they may not deliver a few items which means you need to be well over that £60. Too time consuming and possibly won't pay off means a no from me.

The not entering into correspondence is standard t&cs it doesn't mean they won't speak to you, it's just one of the things you always include.

There was a offer to spend over £50.00 last week. I signed up and spent over £50.00 for Currys rewards, they haven't given me £10.00 cashback it's been over 3 days and no confirmation as well.

Does anyone know if this has to be delivered before 4th December or just placed before then please thanks

snap

The rep will tell you to raise a claim.

Personally I think there is more chance finding a tenner on the street, so you're best returning your purchase.

Was your transaction eligible for normal cashback?

If no then you won't get the bonus.
If yes then you might, depending on the resolution to the confusing wording of the T&Cs and the deal's appearance on the Quidco homepage.

Quidco cashback is never guaranteed.

Reason: They will generally not pay larger claims and simply trouser the cash themselves. Just check out their accounts on Companies House - they make literally MILLIONS of pounds in profit, despite (apparently) paying out 100% of cashback to members. The numbers simply don't add up.

It's about time the Government launched an enquiry into Quidco & TCB and insisted they were independently audited.

I was thinking the same thanks for your input. I ordered three items that I would've ordered anyway 1. Chromecast £18.00 2. Philips headphones £24.99 3. Roku £17.99 so total came to £60.98 what do you think shall I return it or keep these items

Morrissons does not delivery to my area... :disappointed: Does anyone know if thye offer click & collect?
I can't find such info on their website...

I'm not sure if you don't understand how these sites work, or if you are deliberately misrepresenting the facts?

It means i would like to know the answer to this as well :smiley:

Chase it up with Quidco. Send them a message.

​+1 on this been asked a couple of times now. I would like to know as tesco don't take money till day of delivery and I would like to order for Tuesday as just got my weeks home shop from them.

​yes I clicked through, logged in & clicked on activate offer.
got message you have qualified.

thanks

How can they say in small print it is only for invited by email customers when at the same time the first thing you see when you open their website is prominent banner saying: Enjoy a £10 bonus on your festive essentials.???
And when you click Opt-in box you get: Great news! You've qualified for your £10 cashback bonus
Offer activated! Nice work, you're part of an exclusive group.

Underhand tactic IMHO

It doesn't actually matter whether you buy food that has VAT on it or not.

What matters is if the merchant reports your spending including VAT (most do this) or without VAT.

When I've gone through Quidco before for Tesco, they report including VAT, so a £50 spend will show as a £50 spend on your activity history. Not sure about the others though...

Nowhere in the Ts & Cs does it say that, so I'd assume you're fine to order whatever.

Grocery orders for me have always tracked at the price on checkout and this has never changed if the delivered price has been different due to items being out of stock.

It doesn't tell you that you need to opt-in via email.

You just need to have opted in and can do so via the link on the website or via an emailed link.

Specifically: "Participation is by eligible account holders making a cashback qualifying purchase at either Asda, Tesco, Marks & Spencer Christmas Food to Order, Waitrose, Morrisons or Iceland, and opting in via email link or link on homepage, http://www.quidco.com/incentives/grocery-ten-bonus."

It's because they use the same generic t&cs that they use for the £10 bonus offers sent to selected members by email that they use for these bonus offers that anyone can opt-in for, they're just being lazy.

£3m profit for last year. There is always going to be a difference between the money that they receive from retailers and the that which they pay out to account holders. I don't think I have ever seen a claim that they return 100% of cashback to members and can't see that they would have a business if they did.

That said, there does seem to be an increase of purchases failing to track.

My concern is that I already have a Tesco account. I can click through Quidco and order my groceries as usual. However, that would not generate a "cashback qualifying purchase" as no cashback is offered unless it is a new account opened.

Confusing T's and C's.

Not sure why showing as expired, I just logged in and opted in

I clicked the link, got this

We're really sorry, you're not eligible for this offer

Well heck, I must be in the minority then as two large payments that tracked quite happily have been refused. I have claimed again, been on chat, claimed again, double checked all the details and they still refused. After having said that, the majority that do get declined do eventually pay out (quite often at a reduced rate mind you!), but I am now very very cautious about factoring in the quidco value when making a decision about going for one supplier or another based solely on cashback. TopCashBack seem more helpful when this happens.

Deal EXPIRED ??

Totally agree, at first I suspected TCB because they didn't charge an annual fee, but they would not pay out on large sums and then say "their hands are tied and it's with the merchant".... and then disappear into infinity.

Now Quidco are at it, they pretend to pursue claims, yet never have a resolution. I'm willing to bet that despite us not getting any cashback due to merchant tracking issues, Quidco WILL pursue their own cut.... I bet they're all having a laugh in Quidco HQ and preparing for a massive Xmas Quidco bash on our declined transactions...

We need transparency and not on their word, which means nothing.

promotion has ended? that was quick! I thought it was running till 4 dec?
Ahh well prob wouldn't have got this anyway.

If you were going to purchase them anyway, I would say stick if you're happy with the price, without cash back! I can see from your list that they were heavily discounted anyway. You could return, but would there be a better offer before Christmas?

Not me. My Argos purchased didn't track and so I'm still waiting for the result of the claim.

I opted in earlier. Have I still got up until 4th December to purchase and it'll track?

I ordered and never received my cash back so i emailed them they rang me back and said i had to be a new customer.

lost all confidence in Quidco. They have become a very deceitful organisation. Going to stick to Topcashback from own on. Pointless having headline grabbing offers if they never pay out.

I think the main problem is that eligibility has not been defined by Quidco. Surely that should be the centre piece of the ts&cs. That omission makes them inadequate IMO.

But it quite clearly states that you're eligible if you click the opting in link on the website or sent via email and then make a purchase that qualifies you for cashback (the qualification for which being stated on each retailer's page on the website).
