Does anyone know how long the current 15% cashback on Omio through TopCashBack is on for? It normally says how many days it's on for but I can't see anything.....

Is this cashback still paid if you use a voucher discount code in addition to the cashback site TopCashBack? I have a student 5% discount code for Omio too.

Does Omio still charge a booking fee unless you book on the day of travel. I'm not travelling until Tuesday.

Finally, is there a way to get Omio to offer free ticket collection from a TVM even if an e-ticket is possible? It seems to only offer me an e-ticket PDF but those issued by Omio never scan for me at barriers.

The cashback rates for Omio follow a pattern on Topcashback and Quidco. One of those two cashback sites will offer a higher rate (between 15-20%) while the other will offer around 5%. That will last for a week and then they swap round with the other site giving the higher rate.

For the last week it has been Topcashback offering 20%, and latterly 15% which will stop around midnight tonight. Quidco will then start offering a similar higher rate for the coming week and Topcashback will drop to around 5%.

Yes. Omio charge about 1.5% as a booking fee, with a minimum of 50p, if you book before the day of travel. No charge if you book on the day itself.

The cashback sites often say you will lose the cashback if you use an unapproved discount code but often it goes through anyway on many sites. I don't know about Omio though.

I don't know about forcing a TOD option if they are offering an e-ticket. Try asking them.
