I quidco'd home insurance last year because my previous rates had shot up. Now the current company have done the same, it's back to quido - to find my previous insurance company are now offering. Wonder if it'll get paid.

I always do moneysupermarket or a comparisson first on IE, then see if the cheapest places have Quidco deals in Firefox. Done very well so far

Careful with that though - if you enter sufficient details into a price comparison site to allow them to identify you, then using a different browser may not help. There was a big blow-up about that last year when some of the insurers paid the price comparison sites instead of Quidco.

Well Quidco is money for nothing, so if you lose out because you entered too much detail into a search engine then no big deal. Anything which tracks is a huge bonus. They don't owe me anything!!

I noticed yesterday that the car hire company I use when working abroad give 5% through Quidco. Nice!

Blimey, you could probably do quite well out of that

Apart from the occasional big insurance payouts, my best is the Ink Factory where I get our cartridges for work. They give 17.5%

I'll have a look at the Ink Factory too, we get most of our consumables from a stationary company who I'm sure aren't exactly cheap.

But yeah, I could make a few £ out of that. From the car I'll be hiring in Paris I'll get about £15 back. Not bad!

There are a few people who got their money after 3 payments left their accounts, but I'm not hopeful. Such a shame that a few stupid idiots have to spoil it for those of us who actually earn the cashback legitimately.

Ah well, we also got £70 paid out last week. Think it was from car insurance

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS, our Life Insurance from September just got validated

Fingers crossed that means £140 for us to use for holiday money. Chuffed!!

I always forget to check quidico. I so need to get in the habit, especially when I use ebay, it's not a lot but it all helps.

lostkat · 15-02-2009, 16:09

I was just about to tell you that they stopped doing Ebay. And they did, but when I just checked, it's back again. Fantastic

I have it in my bookmarks toolbar on Firefox so I don't forget to use it. I'm glad I can start using it with Ebay again though

All mounts up!
