Bought travel money
Holly, the assistant in store gave us excellent assistance with the process for a click and collect Swedish Krona currency order.
My online ordering process (both on my mobile in the store and on my home computer was problematic in that when I pressed 'Place Order', I received a message at the top of the form stating that I had failed the Rekaptcha test. I believe this is a test to ensure I am human; no such test appeared on my screens.
My husband then completed the order and inserted our home phone number rather than a mobile number. The order worked but even he had not been presented with a Rekaptcha test! All very confusing. If the issue is the use of a mobile number then surely the form should state that a landline number had to be used.
Good Morning Linda,
Thank you for taking the time to share your 4* review.
We appreciate your amazing compliments to our staff Holly, we apologise for any inconvenience that it has caused you and we value your feedback.
Have a lovely day!
Kindest Regards,
Lovely

Bought £200 worth of Euros
Ordered Euro on line on Sunday 22nd June to collect at Ferndown Branch. No contact from anyone at Hays followed until I chased it up with staff at Ferndown on 26th June, who informed me they had tried to ring me twice. My call log shows no calls received. My number was confirmed as being correctly given. Attended Ferndown Branch today, 28th June to collect.
Good Morning, Mel

Bought £100 worth of US dollars
Popped into the local branch to buy some dollars.
The lady behind the counter was extremely friendly and not only supplied the money we required.
Additionally, she had time to explain a potential purchase of other funds we would require at a later date.
Great service.
Good Morning, Paul

Bought £150 worth of Euros
Used Hayes for travel money. Used another company in Romford in the past that I've used for years add their rate was always better than others. But I checked Hayes website and they beat the rest rate I'd previously got. Ordering on line was simple as was the collection process. 100% would recommend Hayes!

Bought £403 worth of Euros
Hays travel is definitely the best for travel money. Couldn't be easier. I order online to hays travel forest side & collect the next day. The money is always ready for me & staff are pleasant and helpful. The exchange rate is always the best available in Belfast. Hopefully will be back soon. Stephen Dawson

Bought Australian dollars
Ordered Australian Dollars in advance. Confirmation email said branch would contact me to discuss my requirements. No contact from branch. I made 6 phone calls to the branch on the day I was supposed to collect my currency, none of which were answered so I went to the branch. I was informed they don't stock the currency which is fair enough, but what is the point in ordering if they do not communicate this to customers. The advisor did a search and told me which branch had stock, I was unable to travel there before close of business and visited the following day to buy the currency. Unfortunately it was required for a gift and it was very inconvenient not having it available when required. Some basic communication would have alleviated the problem as I could have made alternative plans. The advisors in both stores were very pleasant and helpful, it is the system that is at fault. This was my first time using Hays click and collect service and I will never use it again as it is unreliable. The 2 stars are for the staff, otherwise it would have been zero.
Good Morning Laura,
Thank you for taking the time to leave a review.
I do apologise for the service you received from the branch in regards to the communication, this is something that I will raise with the branch to be looked into internally.
Unfortunately, we do always advise to check with the branch prior to ordering to ensure the currency/amount you require is available in stock as not all currencies are held in branch.
Kind Regards
