Cheapest Universal Passes for UK Vistors??

[RJMC]

About to buy five 14 day tickets to universal & Islands Of Adventure from travel republic For £92 each.

Can't find tickets any cheaper - before I part with cash, any one know of anywhere else that beats this price?

I like to use TR for tickets, good company but if you don't mind printing voucher and exchanging on arrival cheapest I know just now is Expedia. For 2012 tickets their price is £94.87 each but they pay 12% Quidco. Quidco is never guaranteed but should pay (I rarely have a problem) price would then be £83.49.

Interesting -

How long does it take usually to get the cashback through quidco?

There is statistics for each page, for Expedia they quote:

7% paid within 60 days

74% paid between 60 to 90 days

19% paid between 90 to 180 days

Its not fast but I find them very good.
This year I have had:
31 Jan 2012 £54.52
28 Apr 2012 £118.18
31 Jul 2012 £58.63
05 Sep 2012 £80.18
Next payment due early Oct £63.28
One after that early Nov expecting another £60-70
I get £500+/year out of them, just for buying what I would anyway.

Next I am considering cancelling my phone contract and getting a new SIM, £6.90/month for the three SIM 200, £50 Quidco means I will pay £32.80 ( £2.73/month) for this. I love Quidco

We still need to buy our Universal tickets too and I think I'll get them from Expedia. It states that they are usable from 27th September to 11th October- if we go for the first time on 5th October, will they still be valid for 14 days until the 19th, even though the 'usable' date ends on the 11th?

They should be valid 14 days from you activating them.

I take it you can't buy 2013 tickets as there isn't a button to add them to your basket. Any idea when 2013 tickets will be released?

Looks like you can only buy for arrivals upto 31st Dec. Other sites have 2013 prices so shouldn't be long.

Has anyone ever used this site? http://www.smartdestinations.com/orlando-attractions-and-tours/_ptd_Orl-p1.html

Just found it on Quidco, they give 10% cashback and the price for a 2-day Universal and 1-day Seaworld for 2 people was $414 which converted to about £256 which is better than anything else I've found so far
