Needed to log-in to Travel Money Card but it would not recognise my password nor was able to send an email to re-set a password. Called customer services, helpful man, but did not resolve the issue. So, I will hopefully be able to withdraw final funds and never bother with a Post Office Travel Card again!

Travel App great experience

Couldn't get a Monzo account unfortunately due to my address. Was recommended to use the Post Office Travel App (as I didn't want to use Revolut) and I have to say my experience was smooth sailing! Managed to order the card, topped up in Euros, arrived in the post within 2 working days. Was able to add it to my Google Wallet and use it abroad with ease. The app showed my balance, transactions and the ability to top up. Wish it had a feature to upload photos of receipts for business travel as the photos get lost in my phone gallery to claim back expenses. So to have them all in one place would be great!

Post Office Travel Card a must.

Post Office Travel Card was great when i was on holiday in Spain, I felt it was safer than carrying cash around with me. I used the app to check on my purchases, balance and could top up at any time. I used it in shops, restaurants and paying for ferry tickets, and also at my hotel for food and drinks. Also card has a long expiry date, so i can use it again maybe next year if I go away again. Definitely recommend post office travel card and the app.
