Review of the Sainsburys Bank, Travel Money:

Pre-ordered

2
I pre-ordered my foreign currency only to wait as long as if I had just gone in and got some money. So there was no point re-ordering I thought the money would all be ready and waiting but no. By the time the transaction was sorted out there was a long queue of people waiting. Won;t be doing this again Reviewed on: 21st April 2022

Failure!!!

1
Pre ordered euros for my much awaited holiday only to be told that the bureau would be closing 2 hours early. I chose the specific day because the website said open until 7pm which gave me time to get there after work. I was told that staff weren’t guaranteed to be there the next day either!!!! Awful service. Currently waiting to be told if I will be able to get my travel money. I leave in less than 36 hours. Appalling. Reviewed on: 30th September 2021

Slick transactions

5
Website so user friendly, ordered 3 lots of travel money. Great rates, better rates for Nectar Card holders and delivered free of charge to my home. Just so easy to use! Reviewed on: 11th February 2018

Definately use again

3
Ordered 1000 Euros online which was quite easy, and collected them from their Camberley branch. Didn't have many small notes available but allowed me to return the next day to change some denominations. Very helpful all round! Reviewed on: 7th March 2017
