Quidco

[AndyA]

Anybody have any experience of using Quidco to get cash back from Goldsmiths? They advertise 13% cash back on all full price items except Tag Connected, wondering if anybody has bought an omega from them this way, as its effectively a pretty substantial discount. Thanks in advance.

I'd expect to get 13% off most omegas. It's also 13% after VAT

Out of interest what would that equate to in reality? I have been looking at the Omega tresor and they don’t seem to have much discount going on these.

10.8%.

10.8%.

I get it at 10.4%

If £100, price before VAT is £100/1.2 = £83.33 (not £80).

13% of £83.33 = £10.83.

Trouble with Quidco and TopCashBack is they always say it's not guaranteed (for whatever reason) so, if you can get money off guaranteed some other way, that might be a better option.

Many thanks.

I bought an Aqua Terra some 5 years ago now. Bought via Quidco and Goldsmiths. Quidco advertised 14% off and this INCLUDED watches bought on interest free.

I suspected this was an error, knowing you rarely get discount and interest free in a store. Anyway, I ordered and took a screenshot of offer.

Sure enough, as time passed and the cashback was due, it was rejected by Goldsmiths. It turned out Quidco made an error. I presented Quidco with my screenshots and they stumped up the £400 or so that day.

Thats helpful! It seems pretty unambiguous on the website, but I know jewellers discount offers often wont include any of the "luxury" watch brands, thats what made me a little uneasy.

Thanks again.

I use Quidco but it is not very good at paying out and whatever percent is advertised, it is never the amount expected. Booked flights for approx £1450, received less than £5. I treat Quidco as potential cashback.

[TaketheCannoli]

Exactly! I had a Quidco claim for a TUI holiday purchase and they didn't pay it. There are loads of ways for them to wriggle out.

I've generally had good dealings with both Quidco and TCB.

[Bungleaio]

I've also done quite well out of both of them but it's never guaranteed.
