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

ForeignXchange supplied us with exactly what we ordered. It was well packaged. The only problem was a breakdown in delivery and this was, according to the post office a computer glitch that corrupted the numbering. It resulted in receiving no notification and having to follow up when it was quite late. With all that, I would use ForeignXchange again.

Great experience and outcome

Best exchange rate at time of purchase. Communication throughout delivery was excellent and using a post office for pickup was an excellent choice. Thanks Amit

The rates were good

The rates were good, delivery was slow. This could have been due to Covid slowing down deliveries. Yes I would use this service again, if i had at least 2 weeks before i needed the money.

Order local currency before travelling

Before going overseas I use ForeignXchange to get a set amount of cash in large to small denominations in the local currency, to use as tips, at markets, bargaining for purchases using cash etc. If the ATM'S are down or my card is faulty I am protected.

I ordered IDK currency because the website said it would arrive in time before I flew to Bali. I was then emailed to say they couldn't deliver it in time so I cancelled my order. Then I receive a message to say that the cash was arriving (after I had left the country). I am chasing a refund still, even though the service wasn't delivered to me according to what they advertised.

No notifications after ordering

Ordered Croatian Kuna. very difficult to get as next year Croatia are changing to Euros. Received the money through the post office as it was quite a large amount as i was ordering for a group. unfortunately the money did to arrive on the allotted date, and when tried to contact Exchange the phone was not answered and it took me sometime to get a reply to emails, I was panicking that i had been scammed. Then received email that money had been despatched and was given a con note, would have much rather receive some notification that there had been a hold up, anything would have been appreciated instead of being left worrying. Just need to work on customer service and keep the customer updated regularly. Otherwise very pleased

Had problems with delivery prior to going on holidays. I contacted them and they told me to go to the post office as the scan may have been missed. It wasn’t there. They then told me to ring StarTrack which I did. They located the parcel and had it to me the day I was leaving to go overseas. Use them but make sure u allow a couple of weeks for delivery.

Really useful service

Really useful service. Exchange rate was best, on offer, at the time. Delivered to Australia Post and collection easy. Really took the hassle out of getting foreign currency out of country.
