Bought £500 worth of Euros

Hi, I ordered my Euros online + it was so easy - hassle free to collect them - I said I would like to collect them on Sunday + I got a phone call straight away saying that they were closed tomorrow so I said could I come up today ( Saturday ) she said that was fine .

Excellent service from Hays Travel - thank you - especially when they do the Buy Back Service - the team member even worked out for me to see if I was going to be in time to return them as I was buying them early for my trip .

Thank you so much so sorry I can’t remember the team members name who served me in Spennymoor branch today .

But excellent service .

Hays Travel replied

Found the process of buying foreign currency from the Hyde branch was very easy. Ordered online for same day collection and was pleasantly surprised to receive a call asking what denominations I would prefer. On collection lovely friendly welcoming staff. I will certainly be using them for future purchases.

Bought £450 worth of Mexican pesos

Online and time to collection was brilliant!

However when collecting i was left disappointed and still needing help with my travel money.

My money came in 200 notes and 3x100 notes, I asked if i could have smaller denominations and was told no as the computer picks the denominations when you order online, also 200 is the equivalent of £8 so doesn't matter.

When researching about my travel money everywhere suggest only taking smaller denominations like 20s 50s.

As this money is only for tips what I recieved is useless really. Not any 50s or 20s in sight!

I am now trying to find another exchange place to exchange what I have!

Hays Travel replied

Good Afternoon Carol,

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re sorry that your experience when collecting your travel money left you disappointed.

We understand your frustration as you intended to use the money for tips and smaller denominations would have been much more suitable for your needs. We’re sorry that we weren’t able to offer a more suitable solution at the time of collection. Your feedback is important to us and we’ll ensure it is passed on to the relevant team for review.

Thank you again for bringing this to our attention, and please accept our apologies for the inconvenience caused.

Many Thanks,

Chloe.
