Denominations were as requested, which I thought might not be possible. Cash was delivered only 1 day after my requested date. I'd much rather go into the bank for this service but this was a good opt... See more

Snail Mail

The order process was straight forward. (Initial order made 20/4 and payment finalised on 22/4) However, everything went wrong with the delivery of the foreign currency. The delivery date was set for the 27th of April and it arrived at the local Post Ofice on the 2nd May.

Great service

Great service and very obliging. Despite a few problems that I accidentally created for myself, ForeignXchange was able to easily find a solution to enable me to get my foreign currency easily and in a timely manner. I was kept informed along each step of the delivery and told when it had arrived.
The online ordering/request process was easy to use.

Very pleased with this service. Placed order online, received email to deposit funds and upload ID. Money turned up at Post Office on requested day. Process at Post Office to collect took less than 10 minutes to verify identity and count money. Will use again as rates were competitive as well.

I have no idea what I used foreignXchange for, likely a donation to a go fund me, it wasn’t obvious. I have received multiple requests for a review which is intrusive and annoying so they get 1 star.

What's the point of sending me multiple emails, suggesting I write to you if I have questions, and including an invalid reply-to address...?
