Cashback websites

Has anyone ever used them?
Which is the best one?
If you do use them, what is the key to ensuring you always get credited what your due?

Quidco, used for years, clear cookies before you go to quidco then click all the way through to the site and buy, never had an issue

Instead of clearing cookies have you tried a private browsing/ incognito window depending on your browser, does it work?

I use topcashback. Has always worked fine for me.

I use topcashback too, never had a problem with them.
Had loads of problems with greasypalm.

Neither have I, in fact I didn't know about them until I read this thread and Googled them.

Sounds too good to be true, which in my mind means "keep well away"

Same here, not remotely interested.

err, I've had well over 500 quid cash back over the years for doing nothing more than clicking through a website before buying something I would be buying anyway? stuff like car insurance you can often get an extra 20-30 quid back after you have found the cheapest quote, mobile contracts are often even more lucrative... electronic stuff like TVs/fridges etc that I've bought having found the best deal often offer an extra 4-5%

seems a no brainer to me. Obviously some people have too much money to worry..

cashman · 26-09-2013, 06:54

Not really,its whatever floats yer boat,have no objection to people doing it, why would i?

its just not fer me simples.

jaysay · 26-09-2013, 17:39

Car insurance, mobile phone contracts, wow, seeing I don't drive now and use a laptop money back wouldn't be much use to me

I don't spend much £ online nowadays-not in places suitable for Topcashback anyway.

Despite this though I still find it well worth it. I did presume they were a scam at first, until my super cash savvy Mother recommended TCB.

I've had about £50 out of them this year. My Mother makes a lot of large purchases online and cashed just under £600 a few months ago, if you're going to spend online anyway, then they're definitely worthwhile-just takes a couple of seconds to use their website instead of going directly to the website you are purchasing from.

Lol I have no need for porn-no I mean most sites where I buy clothes/consumables are not on topcashback. It depends what sort of products you buy regularly and where from, as to how much use it is to you!

I get a lot of clothes/products on eBay for example, TCB isn't an associate. the Mister buys clothes online, but his taste is quite obscure and again TCB isn't available.
