I would guess that you have to change networks for it to actually work.... that's usually how these phone offers work. I.e. you have to be a *new* customer.

Now, given that in my house I sort out all the bills, pay them out of my account and then get them back from my flatmates, would it be morally wrong to get insurance etc renewed through quidco but charge them the same?...

My favourite option so far is not telling them, but putting all the quidco money into a drinking stash for a night out in the future

Yeah, you could give them a nice surprise night out

you have to remember that the average payout is around 3 months.

How long does it take for the insurance deals to track? Did mine yesterday but no sign yet. I had a previous transaction fail too so I wonder what I'm doing wrong.

Aye that's what I was thinking, not gonna give them the discount/cashback now cos I'd end up out of pocket!

Could probably get quite a bit really with all the various house expenses, if only you could get quidco on council tax, lol

It should say on the quidco site, the length differs depending on who it's with. Says on the right hand side when you're looking at the company.

I've just saved myself around £500/year by combining both gas and electric (as I should have done ages ago) and picked up £61 from Quidco for the privilege of doing it!

Yeah, I combined years ago and also try to make use of capped price offers while the market is heading upwards like it is now (the rate can be a little higher than standard to start with, but it can soon pay off with all these 15% hikes going around). The price usually takes a shocking jump when the offer ends though.

PS - thanks Jen. It turned up this evening. \o/

How long is it normally before the transaction appears in the Quidco account? I just cancelled a play.com pre-order and re-ordered through Quidco.
