Thread: Quidco/Small Claims Court?

Started 8 months, 3 weeks ago by armybike
Folks, In March 2008, I took out home/content insurance with Churchill via Quidco, which offered ?80 cash-back. This figure is still to be validated, never mind forwarded to Quidco or paid out to me! Would I be able to take this matter to a small claims court and if I did, would it be Quidco or Churchill I'd have to make the claim against? I know this might sound a little drastic, but...

You will have a problem pursuing Quidco as they operate on a pay when paid approach. If they haven't been paid, you cannot pursue them.

Cashback through these schemes is never guaranteed, so I doubt whether you have any claim at all against anyone.

For the time and hassle it'd take to take this to court it really isn't worth it. It's ?80. And keeping things in perspective, that ?80 wasn't ever really yours to begin with. It's effectively a discount, or a bonus for going through Quidco - and it isn't guaranteed. I would never use Quidco just to get cashback, if it's available on something I would buy anyway then it's a bonus but I never ...

I make no comment on your chances of winning but it is Quidco you would need to take action against their registered office is Maple Syrup Media Ltd. 36a Gordon Rd. Dartford. Kent DA12LQ. I do seem to remember some discussion earlier last year on the Quidco thread and papers were served for exactly the same problem with Quidco/Churchill but it didn't get to court as the money was finally ...

Not sure it would be Quidco. All Quidco do is provide a mechanism of collection so in that respect I think they probably act as the agent of its account holders. Unless the OP can show that Quidco have actually received the money, I can't see how it can proceed.
