Bought £802 worth of Euros

Ordered Euros on-line but you have taken away the click & collect option to pay cash. Why?

Your staff are great, helpful & friendly, you offer great holidays but don't discriminate against those who still prefer cash. Please reinstate the full click & collect service.

Hays Travel replied

Hello Robin,

Thank you for taking the time to leave your feedback and for your kind comments about our staff and service.

We’re pleased to hear you continue to find our team helpful and friendly, and that you value booking your holidays with us.

We’re sorry for any disappointment caused regarding the current click & collect payment options. We appreciate that customers have different preferences when it comes to paying for travel money, including cash, and we understand your concerns. We did remove the option to pay with cash after a process review.

Thank you again for your comments and for choosing us for your Euros. We hope to welcome you back again in the future.

Bought Euros

Click and collect Euros at a competitive rate. Bank card used to pay for the currency does not have a number on so although I had an order number and ID needed to log on to the banking app and show card details. The WiFi in the shop was very poor and this took a while. Hays need to realise that increasingly cards don’t show their numbers for personal security and not accept payment by those that don’t. Alternatively they could take payment by Apple Pay or Google pay.

Hays Travel replied

Hi Andy

Thank you for your review,

We are sorry to learn that collecting your order was made more difficult due to the card verification process and the poor WiFi connection in branch. We appreciate your comments regarding card security features and alternative payment methods such as Apple Pay and Google Pay. Customer feedback is invaluable in helping us improve our services, and we will ensure your suggestions are shared with the relevant team for consideration.

Thank you for bringing this to our attention, and we hope to welcome you back again in the future.

kindest regards

Bought travel money

Hays Travel in Southsea were as ever brilliant. However, the change of policy by Hays requiring advance payment for foreign currency is not helpful. It resulted in a £13 charge by my credit card provider which would have been avoided if I had done the transaction in branch.

We're sorry to learn that the advance payment requirement resulted in an unexpected charge from your credit card provider. We appreciate your comments and understand your frustration.

Thank you for bringing this to our attention, and we hope to assist you again with your future travel money needs
