On quidco it clearly says cashback is 20%

That should make quidco about £90 not £60? (not that it's not a good deal still, but just reading what the quidco site says)

Yes it's a bit odd but the Quidco help page says that the 'tracked' amount is sometimes incorrect and that this should correct itself when the amount is confirmed.

I've never used Quidco before so I'm hoping that this will be the case. If not I'll query it with them.

When do you receive your cashback? Do you have to wait months?

I'm not sure, I've never used them before. Their website says:

"How long does the cashback process take?

This varies a lot between retailers - and the type of purchase - so for example car insurance can sometimes take 3 months to validate as the insurance company wants to make sure the policy hasn't been cancelled

Tracked - this can take from 0 to 3 days
Validated- this can take up to 120 days
Declined- this can take up to 120 days
Received- this can take up to 120 days from validation

Paid - this will be at the end of the month in which the cashback was received by Quidco

The above are indications and not guaranteed. So use them as a guideline and NOT a guarantee!"


So I would guess that it depends on how quickly Nokia pays them.

Mine just says that Quicdo have "tracked" the transaction.

On a positive note, Nokia have just sent me an e-mail that my N900 has shipped! I'll let you know how the rest works out.

Ordered mine today through Quidco and status is currently showing as tracked at £59.88 so this seems to be standard. Just have to wait and see it corrects.

Total time from ordering to shipping was 48 minutes!

just went on the quid co website and it seems the nokia voucher has been removed? it only has 10% discount now:

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

r-t-q - it hasn't been removed, the voucher has always been 10% off (at checkout on the nokia.co.uk website) with the code

NOK10%JAN2010VC

but you also get 20% (although it's currently showing as 13% tracked cashback for most people) cashback from quidco if you sign up with them and buy through the link on their website.

oh, thanks Billy. As you may be able to tell I haven't used any cashback sites before.

By the way, you may as well go for standard delivery if you can bear to wait (possibly) an extra day for it.

As long as you place your order before 12:30pm (1:30pm is specified on the Nokia website but they don't tell you it's 1:30pm Dutch time!), it should arrive in Barking the next day and then be delivered the day after.

The only problem is, it's quite painful to know that my N900 has been sitting in a warehouse a few miles away since lunchtime and I'll only get it tomorrow. I'm half wishing I paid the extra £10...

No voucher but 20% on topcashback (quidco is back to 10%)
