Agreement
By accessing, using or browsing our Travel
Money web site ("the Site"), or ordering
Travel Money from us by any means, you confirm
that you are over 18 years old and have read
and understood these Terms of Use (and those
of the issuer of travellers cheques if you order
the same), and agree to be bound by them and
to comply with all applicable laws, rules and
regulations, including the Privacy Policy (see

Orders
We reserve the right to implement a maximum
order value at any time, and amend from time
to time the maximum order value at our discretion
without notice, and without liability to you.
Each order will be subject to rounding up.
You must provide the requested information
for us to process your order. We reserve the
right to request further information from you
at any time. We will use various procedures
to authenticate each transaction and may, at
any time, decline to process your order for
any reason. We may, in our sole discretion,
elect to process part orders.
The exchange rates we quote are subject to
change. We will use the exchange rate (as set
by us) that applies at the time we receive your
order. We will acknowledge receipt of your order.
Such acknowledgement shall not constitute our
acceptance of your order.
To place your order, use the Sites order
facility, or call the number quoted on the Site
or on our promotional material. Calls are charged
at the appropriate rate (ie. local rate for
0845 numbers, and national rate for 0870 numbers).
Orders will not be accepted on any other number.
Calls may be monitored and/or recorded for security
purposes, and to ensure a consistent level of
service.
The hours of business for our call centres
(excluding Christmas Day, Boxing Day and New
Years Day) are 8am-10pm Monday to Friday, and
10am 8pm Saturday, Sunday and other Bank
Holidays.
Please order your Travel Money at least 3 working
days before you need it. We will not be liable
for any losses or expenses arising from late
or non-delivery.
Delivery
We will endeavour to despatch the Travel Money
(subject to availability) for orders we receive
before 2.00pm on a working day, on the same
day, and at other times the next working day.
The Travel Money will be delivered to your
home address (as specified in your order and
which must correspond with the home address
registered for your credit, debit, charge or
store card used in payment for your order).
Saturday deliveries are not guaranteed. There
are no deliveries on Sundays or public holidays.
We reserve the right to use any delivery service
at our option without notice, and without liability
to you.
You will need to sign a delivery receipt for

A non-refundable delivery charge applies to
each order. We will notify you of the cost of
delivery when you make your order.
Your credit/debit card issuer may charge you
interest and/or fees on cash advances according
to its separate agreement with you. We have
no control over, and are not liable for, such
charges.

You can pay for orders with most major credit
or debit cards, and a range of charge or store
cards issued in the United Kingdom (a full list
of which is provided on the Payment page of
the Site) registered in your name and which

order (and any fees in total).
Buy Back Offer
The Buy Back Offer (defined below) is distinct
from the Service and is provided by selected
UK retail outlets, which we may notify you of
via the Site from time to time ("Selected
Outlets").
You may change back your unused foreign currency
banknotes and/or travellers cheques to pounds
sterling at any Selected Outlet commission free
(the Buy Back Offer).
The Selected Outlets may use various procedures
to authenticate each transaction and may, at
the time, decline to buy back your Travel Money
for any reason.
You acknowledge that laws or regulations may
prohibit the purchase of certain currencies
from you. The Buy Back Offer will, therefore,
not apply to those currencies.
The exchange will be made at the exchange rate
displayed in, or notified by,the Selected Outlet

sole discretion.
The Buy Back Offer may be withdrawn, and/or
Selected Outlets changed, at any time without
notice, and without liability to you.
