  • Voyager,
    this is their charge for sending euros to a euro bank account.
    Not sure if your bank would charge for receiving funds though. You'd have to check.

    £1,000 to £2,500 costs £30.
    £2,501 to £5,000 costs £25
    £5,001 to £7,500 costs £20
  • Can anyone please confirm when CCE last send a special cancelled contact rate e-mail. I signed up and spoken to them and they confirmed im on the mailing list yet ive not ever received 1 :S (Confirmed me on mailing list approx 4-5 weeks ago)

    Other people have said the same thing...even checking spam folders, etc. they're adamant the email isn't coming in. If you have someone else in the house with a different email address maybe have them sign up and see.
    Does remembering a time that a certain degree of personal responsibility was more or less standard means that I am officially old?

    The money arrived today, as I'd chosen, before 1p.m.

    Can you arrange for a delivery on saturdays too? I work mon to fri so saturday would be my only day I would be in to answer the doorbell


    You cannot ask for a Saturday delivery. However there's a good chance - but no guarantee - that a Monday delivery will actually arrive on the Saturday.

    If you are not in Royal Mail will leave a card telling you to call to rearrange the delivery or saying where you can collect it.

    our Monday 27/09 delivery arrived today. :) We know there's no guarantee, but so happy when it happens as it means not having to make a trip to the sorting office during the week and then carrying the cash around all day.

    When i called them i added another email address with them, both a hotmail 1 and my work 1.

    strange....it would be great if someone could post up on here who get the emails when they are sent out

    i had an email once they confirmed they received the money, shows status as PAID....
    If by chance they dont deliver when they say they will, and a few days after that, then it will be a trip to there offices in cornwall.. and i'm a take no prisoners kinda guy :) but so far, got no reason not to trust this company......

    I have never heard of anyone who didn't have their currency delivered on the date agreed, apart from those that received it on the Saturday before a Monday agreed date.
  • Crown Currency aren't regulated by the Financial Services Compensation scheme so if anything happens to them you won't get your money back.

    Is it really worth the risk for a few extra pounds?
