Has anybody looked at this site before? Inparticular the cashback incentives?
I'm looking at this cashback offer on o2 broadband. £9.79PM with £75 cashback. Works out at £3.54 per month for the first year (Would be even less if I took it with the 3 months off deal)
LINK to o2 BB with Quidco
There is a lot of money to be had if the bills can be kept right down by using these sites. I'm about to become a homeowner so am starting to look for deals as the sale gathers pace! Are they reliable? I take it there is risks involved and you might not get your cash. Was wondering if anyone had tried it.

I use Quidco. It sometimes takes a couple of months to get paid the cashback, and you need to remember to always go to the sites via the Quidco site and not directly, but yeah, it works.

I've been using Quidco for almost 2 years now. Went threw it when I jopined o2 broadband at the end of August and will be getting £50 put in my bank at the end of this month.
In the 2 years I've been using it I've had almost £200 most of it by getting 12p etc each time I buy a CD or DVD from play

Do it through TopCashBack instead of Quidco.
Cashback amount is the same (assuming you are talking about the 'Premium Home' broadband, you get 3 months free broadband, but the deal clincher for you I think is that TCB don't charge a £5 "annual membership fee" like Quidco does (so in other words, membership to TCB is free and you get the full £75 cashback, not £75 - £5).

i've done exactly this.
got o2 broadband with a discount (My old man has a o2 contract). And on top of the quidco has given quite a bit of cashback.
So in all it works out a couple of quid per month.

Quidco is a brilliant concept, massive savings to be had especially on insurance policies, phone contracts, credit cards.
Since Oct 2006 i've saved £862.28 in total.

Sam,
How does TopCashBack pay for their site and expenses? I think quidco give 100% of the advertising cut back to the customers and charge £5 a year.
If the other site is giving more cashback and not charging a fee how is it funding itself?

I think they make their money by taking a cut from the retailer and the Google Adwords on their site.
