Hi,

This is my first post so please be gentle :-)

Just noticed on the excellent quidco.com cashback site that Nokia have increased cashback to 20%! On top of that, there is a compatible 10% off voucher!

When I bought my N900, I used the 15% xmas coupon and got 10% cashback via quidco. The 10% was calculated on the RRP, not on the discounted price, so cashback for me was £49.90. If this works the same way (I cannot confirm but would imagine it would), then you would expect the device to cost:

£499 - £49.90 (10% coupon) = £449.10 - £99.80 (20% of RRP cashback) = £349.30

Details at: http://www.quidco.com/nokia/

Cheers.

So when I use the discount code in Nokia store, I get the 10% coupon, how do you get the other 20%? Ie should that show up somewhere as well, or by entering that code the cashback would arrive with the phone?

Read the Quidco website for full details of how the cashback works. In summary - you go to the Nokia website via a link in Quidco (you have to be registered*). Make your purchase as per normal (with the 10% code). If the purchase "tracks" properly then 20% cashback will be in your Quidco account and after several weeks you can get it paid into your bank.

*Registration is free but Quidco charge/take £5 per year from any cashbacks you make (in that year).

Ah thanks, was reading the help area for Quidco, and it is probably because its morning that it got me completely confused. For £350, I think its a good buy, considering I do have 810.

Not sure if you've made this purchase yet or not, but people who did it back on the 20% quidco cashback are finding that the cashback is only tracking at about 12 or 13% and not 20%. You might want to follow the forums on there before you decide to buy.

Ah, not bought yet, mainly because I got 810, and can't think what to use it for if il upgrade. Also been reading http://www.linuxfordevices.com/ and some of the announced PDA/MIDs, seem... a little bit better and normally cheaper then N900.

Well at any rate, offer ends on 25'th so if I decide to, there is still time

I know 2 people who have done this now, and both tracked at 20%
