The in store guy was great, however......

The guy in the Rundle Mall store was great, however, you are not able to select your denominations when doing an online click and collect order. If you purchase in store, it was about $40 more for $700 USD, then they won't allow you to change the denomination in store.

EDIT Response to Travel Money Oz: Do not agree with your response as the order was for USD and I know for a fact that the availability of lower denominations was available. Saying that "supply lines are impacted by events in the world outside of our control" is just a cop out. Also, you did not respond to my issue of not being able to change to lower denominations in store as I know there was availability, however, your policy prevents customers from being able to do this. Just another way for you to direct customers into your store to then charge more.......

Hey Nicholas, thanks for reaching out. We're all about providing foreign cash in a flash, so we're pleased to hear that you received prompt service.

In regard to receiving smaller denominations, we're really sorry for the inconvenience and understand the frustration. Sometimes supply lines are impacted by events in the world outside of our control, and we can't always get a hold of all of the denominations we'd like to offer. As stated during the online order process, we can't guarantee any specific denominations for orders placed online, as the orders are packed as a mix of available denominations at the time of the order being received.

If you need to break larger notes, one way is to use them at popular tourist spots, restaurants, or well-known attractions — they’re usually happy to accept them and can provide change.

We hope this helps!

tried 4 different cards to pay online. all failed.

tried 4 different cards to pay online, these from large banks. none worked. now my card details stored in some flight center db. hope better developed than travelmoneyoz site.

After a few emails and attempts to fix with their online support. They were not able to resolve my issue, but they offered to have the shopfront match the online rate. Shopfront staff very good - Woden, Canberra.

Hi Gleno, thanks so much for reaching out. We really appreciate your feedback and the chance to explain a bit more about how exchange rates work.

The 'Retail Rate' is different from the 'Market Rate' you see on Google (which is only available to big banks and foreign traders). Retailers and other foreign exchange businesses like us take a snapshot of that rate at a set time (usually mornings), then factor in costs such as sourcing currencies, operational fees, and making sure your money is safe and accessible.

The exchange rates you see on our online shop have fewer overheads, which means we can offer a quick order, quick collect service that can sometimes be better than our in-store rates. On the other hand, in-store services come with added benefits you can’t get online, like our Price Beat Guarantee, Rate Move Protection, and the ability to choose your denominations.

We hope that clears things up a bit, but if you’d like to chat further, feel free to drop us an email at feedback@travelmoneyoz.com.

Go somewhere that is open when they say they are

Great rate - until you add the costs of being messed about when they randomly close the CBD branch for lunch for an hour, despite their website saying they are open 9 to 5. I had to make a second trip into the city the same day to pick up my cash. On giving this feedback, i received a smart-ass apology for "not knowing when I would be coming in that day". Yes, you'll pay more at a post office or bank ...but at least they are open when they say they are.

Hi there, we appreciate you reaching out to share your feedback.

Our consultants are encouraged to take their legally entitled lunch breaks when they can, between serving customers, managing customer orders and deliveries, it works best for our team to have the freedom to go when they get the chance.

We do apologise for missing our team on your first visit, but we promise they weren't actively trying to avoid you, they were probably just hungry!

Payment issue with credit cards

Easy process to order online until it comes to paying with a credit card. I was using an iPhone and it would not accept my card. When I looked on their website there was an FAQ relating to difficulties paying with a credit card so this is obviously an issue. They suggest using different browsers or a computer and not an iPad but if you just have an iPhone or iPad these suggestions don’t work. I ended up using a debit card which I didn’t want to do so unless I can easily pay with a credit card I won’t be using them again.

Hi Narelle, thanks for reaching out — and we’re really sorry to hear you ran into issues at the payment stage of your order. That’s definitely not what we want to hear.

Just to clarify, the FAQ on our website covers general payment issues, but we’d really like to understand what happened in your case and look into it further.

If you could please email our Customer Support team at Feedback@travelmoneyoz.com, they’ll be able to help investigate and assist you from there.

The gentleman from travel oz Shellharbour was so patient with me as I made an error on line in purchasing foreign cash as I clicked car and not cash due to my lack of Technology brain and helped me in providing information of how to return the funds.
Appreciate his help

The place was easy to locate and in an accessible area. Also, Norelle, the exchange agent went the extra mile with information and ideas about things to see and do. She was a great help to know where to shop or go for our specific needs.

Ridiculously low exchange rates on return to AUD

Ridiculously low exchange rates on return to Australia. You expect a bit of a difference, but this was just a scam. We exchanged 399.72 AUD and a week later got back 165.15. We spent around 60 AUD worth, so approximately 225.15 AUD equivalent.

Edit: I just checked with Crown, and it turns out this is a wildly unfair currency exchange rate, and the attendant did not explain the exchange rate being offered to us, and we only realised the exchange rate post-transaction when we returned home and looked at the receipt. The business was in a Flight Centre, so we thought it would be reputable. I'll be contacting Flight Centre and the ACCC.

We'd love the opportunity to look into this for you, as it does sound unusual. If you’re happy to, please email our Customer Support team with a few more details (such as the date and location of the exchange), so we can investigate what happened.

We appreciate you raising this and would welcome the chance to review it further.

Travel Money in Parramatta were fast with my Click and Collect order for spending money heading to Vanuatu and New Caledonia for our cruise. The order was ready in under 1 hour. I found not all exchange places carried these currencies, but Travel Money were prepared and fast.
