101% Cashback on Skype Credit - £11.50 for £10.00 credit with £10.10 TCB)
EDIT:
Not as hot as I first thought. Must top up £10 and they don't include VAT. So £11.50 for £10.00 credit, with £10.10 cashback, meaning £1.40 for £10 credit after cashback.

Just noticed Skype now showing at 101% on TCB. Assuming cashback is paid, you could actually make a profit buy buying Skype credit, as well as getting the Skype credit.
******** Purchases must be made via Skype website and not skype software. *************
Doesn't list a minimum or maximum top up. And of course cashback is never guaranteed.
It does say new customers only, which I presume (but can't confirm) means first time you top up the account.
A fair few what if's involved but on the surface, top up £10, get £10.10 cashback and £10 of credit...

Skype used to give good cashback to everyone, but now restrict it only to new accounts. They also paid incorrect cashback on TCB - a claim I have from over a year ago never got settled.

I think i read somewhere on the site that it is indefinate. You have to make one call/text every 180 days though (but even then, they say if you don't your credit will be inactivated but can be reactivated :o)
If you got you credit stolen,as it happen to me,NO REFUND will be given. dump it.
always SKYPE FREE
will never trust them ever
once bought a credit and in their t+c's
they set up a D/D with auto top-up
they can have me as a free user
would rather send a pigeon on use a phone-box
+1
Happened to my wife, she left her details on and auto update. Fortunately the bank took the money back from skype. Also, for a telecom company, you can't actually phone and talk to them.

I bought skype credit via quidco number of times, and in the beginning transactions tracked ok and i was getting my cashback. But strangely it stopped and even submitting claims via quidco didn't help - all my claims were declined by skype....i don't use skype too often now. especially after huge problems i had when one of my skypein numbers stopped working. took them a few months to sort this out (despite my numerous emails, chats, etc.). They were charging me for this number every month (couldn't cancel it, they were taking money from my skype balance). they admitted it was for over a year and i had no idea how many potential customers we may have lost.
i mainly use voipfone.co.uk now and can highly recommend it.
BTW - i had 2 skypein numbers for years but suddenly

I've reactivated credit after six months once, so I can confirm that that works. It's easy enough if a bit of a pain. I don't really understand why they require this; it's not as if you're not going to reactivate your credit!
