Unsure which option? Travelex...

Hey everyone,

I'm debating whether to collect my cash at the Travelex counter or have my cash delivered to my house - i've collected from the airport before, but on this occasion i'm buying £800's worth off EUROS and worried whether Travelex will go bankrupt by the time i go on holiday in May....( nothing is safe or risk free these days), so wondering whether i should therefore get my EUROs delivered to my door?....

  • Were you thinking of getting Travelex to deliver or another company?

    Either way, I think you'll be safe (if its delivered, you only have royal mail to worry about!) I doubt very much Travelex will go bankrupt between now and May.

    if youre worried about this why not just buy them from your bank/building society. I buy mine over the counter at Halifax, no charges, no commission
    and most of all, no £5 delivery/postage charge
    make the most of it, we are only here for the weekend.
    and we will never, ever return.
