If ordering in-branch, let the staff member know the full list of currencies and products you require. An option is available to obtain currency the same day, providing that there are branches in the local area that have sufficient currency stocks to fulfil your order.
If there aren't any, this choice won't be displayed in the drop-down list. You will be however offered a home or branch delivery service which is available next working day, provided you order before 3pm. Any fees relating to commissions, card issuer, or delivery will be displayed during the order process.
You will need to provide personal details during the order process, but you don't need an account logon. We appreciate that it is always handy to have a few lower denominations available for small purchases at the start of your travels. Therefore your order will be fulfilled using the denominations available, wherever possible supplying you with a mix of banknotes.
An on-screen confirmation message of your order will be displayed to advise if your order has been accepted or declined. If your order has gone through, you will also receive a confirmation via email. Where possible, you should print this and take it with you if you are collecting your order from a Post Office branch.
As soon as you select the 'Place order' button we will validate your card and the availability of funds. If your order is accepted funds will be allocated against your card immediately. It is therefore important that you provide the correct contact details during the order process.
You will be notified by First Rate if, for whatever reason, your order cannot be confirmed. Cancellation can only be undertaken prior to dispatch of your order.
If you have selected home delivery then the order will need to be signed for. Your order will always be delivered to the card billing address you entered when you placed the order. You can collect your order from the branch chosen during the order process. If you have selected home delivery, your order can only be delivered to the billing address of your payment card to protect you from any unauthorised card use. Unfortunately, we don't have a central phone ordering facility.
However, you can reserve currency by phone from your local branch if they have the stock available. Contact details can be found here. If your local branch does not hold currency in store, they can pre-order this for you.
Pre-orders can only be done by visiting the branch. The cut-off time for next working day delivery for branch pre-orders is 2pm. Our Branch Finder will display your local branch. Simply enter your postcode and choose the 'Travel and Foreign Currency' indicator from the 'Products and Services list'. Please call during our office hours, which are Monday to Saturday from am to pm. If no one is at the billing address when the order is delivered, the order will automatically go to your local Royal Mail sorting office.
Royal Mail will leave a 'sorry we missed you' card and you will be required to collect the item from your local sorting office the next day, or arrange re-delivery. Louise said:.

I think I will just keep it for my next trip instead of trying to change it back. As I am charred per transaction at the atm I sometimes end up taking out more than I need. Will try to plan more carefully and keep anything left over. Thanks again. May be worth checking out different accounts, some charge for foreign withdrawals but others are free.

I've been searched a couple of times but managed to blag it, citing my need as I own a property there and will be returning soon. However Tunisian customs are perfectly within their rights to keep any dinars they find on departure from the country, the signs are everywhere at the airport. I would risk a small amount but not worth it with any large amounts of money, it's another way for the border guards to top up their pension!
If you have ties to the country it's probably best to open a bank account there, that way you can export and import currency when held in a convertible account, and the records are there for proof. Essem Moderator Staff member. There was a news article in the last week confirming that ATM receipts would not be accepted not sure but don't think they ever have been accepted for changing dinars back to other currencies.
Will try to find it for you. Essem said:. Thanks for your help everyone. A coffee in a local cafe in Tunisia costs around 2 dinars. For a three-course meal in Tunisia you can expect to pay around dinars. Tipping in Tunisia is not expected, but giving a modest tip to waiters, bar and hotel staff is often a good way to show how you appreciate good service.
