“DO NOT USE travelex ”

Written on: 08/05/2013

Travelex cash passport complete rubbish Anybody thinking of using this card for Asia do not bother it is the worst card going, I lost £20 on every £100 I loaded plus being charged £4-£5 on each withdrawal this card is an absolute rip off. I'm from England and they make you exchange GBP to dollars to thai baht and what they don't tell you is after they charge you to load the card they charge to to exchange to us dollars and then again to exchange in to thai baht and when asking them...

“DO NOT BUY”

Written on: 07/05/2013

Do not use this card. First of all she I purchased the card they entered my name in wrong. This has now resulted that I cannot reloD at all online at all as the name on the card does not correspond with my actual name on my other cards!!! this has now resulted in me having to call from half way across the world costing me a ridiculous amount to have to speak to an extremely rude and unhelpful man. This is not the first time as a horrible person also spoke to me rudely when I phoned up from... (read more)

“Travelex left me with no food and almost homeless”

Written on: 19/04/2013

I feel obliged to let everyone know about my Travelex Cash Passport Experience. I recently traveled to Amsterdam for 3 days with my boyfriend and another couple. I ordered my cash passport with £300 on through their website 1 week before departure. The morning of travel i arrived at Leeds and Bradford airport as planned and collected my Travelex Cash Passport from the desk after security as planned. As far as i was aware everything was fine and i spent the next two hours in the airport... (read more)

“Excellent Card!”

Written on: 14/04/2013 by AKC66 (2 reviews written)

Simply cannot understand the poor reviews! Have just been on holiday to the USA for 16 days (five different cities) and the card has been accepted everywhere. Just to clarify the comment below - it is true that if you use the card in a restaurant then a conversion of 1.15 applies - however, in our case, this was only whilst the payment was pending. When it was posted on to the account it reverted back to the amount that we had paid. We did pay tips though as this is customary in the States... (read more)

“Using travelex cards is like leaving your wallet open!!!”

Written on: 11/04/2013 by Badservicehunter (1 review written)

I usually use travelex for foreign currency, they tend to be competitive and offer good service. This cash passport I've found out is utterly flawed and has a serious security loophole for your money!! Out in Florida, went for a meal, paid by cash passport 77.30 this was both the bill and the receipt of the transaction the restaurant gave me. I just happened to check my balance later that evening online...my cash passport loaded with dollars, paid a bill in dollars, had been charge 77.30... (read more)

I've been living in Europe & travelling fairly extensively for 7 months now & have found the cash passport excellent! No fees at ATMs and I've not had any problems with using it, bar one rental company which refused to accept any pre-paid credit cards. There has been a couple of extra 'hidden' fees which I'm not real happy about (all up about 20 Euro's worth)which were deducted without my knowing, but otherwise no complaints. Every ATM I've been to has accepted it, as has every shop I've... (read more)

Had trouble with the card. Had several email exchanges with Travelex where they tried to convince me that I didn't have the trouble I did, that it wasn't their fault, that I shouldn't have had the problems I did, and I didn't really have the problems I thought I had (If the last sentence was confusing, then you are getting the idea of how frustrating it is to deal with these people).

“here is a test for you before you buy”

Written on: 16/02/2013

The customer service of travex is somewhere between bad and absolutely appalling. I have a test for you before you buy: call their customer service number and watch what happens. If your experience is like mine, will be moved from one automated menu to another, usually at least seven, and often you will return where you came from. If you are lucky, you will get to a person, but be prepared for a long wait. Then, if they promise they will get back to you or email you, be prepared for... (read more)

Appalling in every way imaginable. Stole £500 of my money. Not possible to speak to a human. Reloading card is a pain in the back side.. I am now in a situation where I can't register my card online because the data is invalid apparently, and when I phone to talk to someone I have to enter that same data before I will be connected, guess what, it is invalid so I end up in an infinite loop entering data and being told that I don't know when my birthday is.

“Travelex Cash Passport Nightmare”

Our cell telephones, credit cards, cash and CASH PASSPORTS were stolen in Barcelona. We were left stranded without a cent and with one night’s pre-paid hotel booking. Having been assured by ABSA BANK (South Africa), who is a TRAVELEX agent that emergency assistance would be instantly available we called the Europe emergency number for TRAVELEX. We were told that it could take up to 5 working days to replace the CASH PASSPORTS. Having been left destitute, however, they arranged for a... (read more)

THE WORST CARD!

I have ordered single currency cashpassport card in US dollars.
I did not even notice until I was asked in USA that card does not have embossed/raised numbers!
Reno Nevada- 95% cab drivers refused to take this card!
San Francisco California a little better
Los Angeles-some problems due to the numbers not embossed
Las Vegas-little better, but a large casino/hotel I stayed in -The Venetian have also flat out refused the card even when I offered ID.
Overall experience-NOT GOOD.
Would never use this company.
My advice go with the big four bank.

ANZ/Commonwealth/NAB all offer same card with embossed numbers and/or your name imprinted.

Preloaded with 2400 USD. Cards were quick and easy to obtain and load. Get to USA and a catalogue of refused payments(even though cleared funds were available, checked on line). Consequently get back to UK with substantial unused balance and about 10 phone calls (very difficult to speak to someone---mostly automated responses) and several emails later WE ARE CHARGED TO HAVE THE RESIDUAL FUNDS RESTORED TO OUR BANK ACCOUNT). I did send a complaint by email but that was ignored in the reply. (read more)

“Will never use it again”

Written on: 09/11/2012

PIN problems - just don't try to change it. Put up with the pre-issued PIN, live with it, because if you change it, the problems start. We got it in the UK, pre-loaded with US dollars. We finally cleared it to zero by checking the balance through the automated line, and asking our hotel to credit that amount against our bill. If you have any trouble with it, you're stuck -- don't expect any help or support from Travelex on it, as you can't even find a way to talk to a person. (read more)

I have 1000 Euro on my Travelex card. The card would not work in the ATM, tried ringing all the numbers given again and again and got an answerphone telling me my call was important. I was on Holiday with three kids and no cash. That was in June/July 2012 it is the end of September and I am still trying to get my money back from them. Email after email but no refund of my cash. Do not use this service. Stuff cash in your socks it will be safer and at least YOU will be able to use it.

It's convenient for 2 people travelling if you want to cover tedious small bills like petrol, deposits, tickets etc. You can just each take a card and then pbay the same amount of money into the account. Good also for slightly risky online purchases. I would never use the Travelex counters because they charge too much, strictly online reloading at 1%.

This is probably the worst service that I have ever experienced. The card was blocked whilst I was abroad for reasons I still don't understand and it probably cost me more in phone calls to sort out than I saved by not using my bank debit card. It is practically impossible to speak to a person on the phone. Finally, I have asked to have the balance of the money put back in to my bank account and it still hasn't arrived over a week later. Not suprisingly, I have not received the promised call... (read more)

I agree, I couldn't get my thousand Euro out through a ATM's as it couldn't read the card. Rang the emergency number time and time again and was told to hold on (running up cellphone bill) and that my call was important to them. Four days of constant calling and trying to find a public call box and emails I had to give up and borrow money. In Spain with three kids and no cash. Back in NZ and two months later still trying to get my money back. Don't touch these guys with a barge pole.

These Travelex Cash Passports are a complete scam. For goodness sake don't even think of buying one. BEWARE if Travelex loads your card with any amount not ending in a zero! You can't get the 5 euros back, no matter how you try.

The cash passport is accepted in the US, I have been using it for the last 7 weeks no problem. It maybe that when they asked if it was debit or credit if yu said debit, that wil refuse it. All UK debit cards have to be put through US systems as credit due to them not having the same chip and pin service that we do.

I would absolutely not recommend the travelex cash passport card to anyone.

I recently used a cash passport multi - a variation of the Travelex card - on a 2 week trip to the US. The exchange rate was reasonable and the fixed rates were appealing to me and my partner. The cards initially worked well for allocating money for the trip. The only way to reload the cards we had was by using BPAY, which takes up to 5 days to go through - very annoying. When we arrived at our first hotel, we understood the main problem with these cards - they do not have your name on... (read more)
