Robbed first night we arrived thomas cook refused to honour the insurance slip ,firstly citeing I had sworn at the rep in theU.K. office then using the feeble excuse in the DOT hearing that as I was a market trader they thought I may have lost them in a casino ,I wouldn't have them for free,it took the DOT and a 2 year slog to get reimbursed,they aren't worth the paper they are written on .

I faced the same dilemma, having found no bank or trvelex agent that would cash my Thomas Cooke's cheques. Please advice as to where and how I can make a transaction , by printing a global list of bank/agencies.

If you have experienced an unusual difficulty in the acceptance of Travelex, Thomas Cook MasterCard or Visa Interpayment cheques then these can be sent directly to Travelex for reimbursement. Similarly, if you are in possession of Travelex, Thomas Cook MasterCard or Visa Interpayment cheques purchased by a deceased customer, the items can be refunded by sending the items directly to Travelex. Further details are available here: www.travelex.co.uk/uk/personal/TC_visamcard.aspx (read more)

Written on: 08/09/2010

I sugest you think very carefully about buying travellers cheques from Thomas Cook branches or elsewhere. Ours are in sterling.
You may believe that there are no expiry dates on travellers cheques having purchased some. This is not the case. Our cheques were refused for a refund at the Thomas Cook branch from which they were purchased, being 'the old type'and also could not be used to purchase euro. This is despite a sign on the counter window which says that they do take back travellers... (read more)

“I would be very wary of ever using Thomas Cook...”

Written on: 15/07/2009

I would be very wary of ever using Thomas Cook travellers cheques again based on a recent experience while on holiday in Turkey. My cheques were lost / stolen on the morning I arrived and it proved very difficult to cancel the cheques, partly because the wrong numbers were printed on my receipt, and it proved totally impossible to obtain replacements. The only offer I received was for a partial refund to be sent to my home address within 30 days. I'm still waiting!!!!!!!!!! (read more)
