Yesterday

Bought Euros

2nd best rate online for Euros but the better rate by a rival proved illusory as purchase could not be completed online due to a technical post code recognition problem. So de facto the best rate online, convenient pick up location and my cash was waiting from me when I picked it up from a friendly member of Hay’s staff.

Bought Euros

It was excellent being able to reserve Euros online at a good rate for same day local collection.

Slightly concerning was the online closing message "Your transaction may not be completed successfully." I hate when I occasionally see messages like that after paying(?) for something - have I bought Euros or not?!

But fairly straightforwardly resolved by a quick call to the branch (transaction was fine, no idea what the issue was.) All good, minor glitch only, would definitely use again.

Bought £700 worth of Euros

I went to Hays at transit way today to use click and collect. I had problems with my banking app and was really struggling to get the back to authorise the payment. That's too the staff there they helped me to navigate the system after phoning the bank and getting them to authorise. They let me sit in the shop and make my call then try again. They were so pleasent and helpful I was very grateful. Thankyou

Hays Travel replied

Bought £600 worth of Euros

Looked for best high street exchange rate and Hays Travel were the best. For a small fee, you could also have a buy back guarantee at the same rate as purchased. Did click and collect online, for the best rate and collected the money from my local branch, within 30 mins of paying. Euros were ready when I arrived and the polite, friendly, young lady had them ready and waiting. Excellent service all round.

Bought £507 worth of Euros

Not very happy as although I’d paid for my Euros online and had ID with me I had to return home to collect the credit card I had paid with in order to receive my Euros. Why was this necessary especially as I said I would be happy to phone home and ask my wife to dig out the card from my wallet and provide the card details over the phone.

Ridiculous and a waste of my time when I had a plane to catch!!
