Same we had to pick the cash up out of town as we live in Taupo and picked it up in Sylvia Park to the day of travel. Would be nice to open an office or appoint an agent.

The Feilding Post shop was great to pick my order up from. The person serving me was very good to deal with. Just a shame Travelex NZ don't give smaller currency values, for example you gave us a 100 euro note instead of breaking it up into more 20's or 10s which would be more useful for paying for things while travelling. Other than that the service was good thanks.

If you are collecting the order from a Travelex bureau, you can email: tmonz@travelex.com before collection to make a request for specified denominations. However, please be aware this is within the stores discretion and may not be possible depending on stock availability. We look forward to welcoming you back to www.travelex.com.au/.

The whole process, from online ordering to physically collecting my cash, was easy and well organised. Comprehensive emails with all needed help and instructions were appreciated as this was my first time using Travelex to get my foreign currency. Will absolutely use them again. 👍

Travelex Invercargill is very disorganized, they don't answer their phones, they do not return calls or messages that been left. They don't write down orders properly; they only put it on post it notes and then don't follow through with the order. Other people have had the same experience as us. We will not be using them again.
