Again Commbank have dissapointed me. Been with them for 30+ years. Decided to get a travel card. Put $850 on it over the last few weeks. Went to pull… Read more

out my money and lost $80 because of the exchange rate. I hadnt even left the country yet. It is literally day trading without telling you. DO NOT USE THIS CARD. Commbank is the worst bank, they have gone downhill so much.

ONE STAR IS ONE STAR TOO MANY I thought it would be a good idea to purchase some Euro currency before leaving for a trip to Finland. So, on… Read more

Thursday, 16/07/2026, I purchased $900 EUR (for $1,568.49 AUD) from Travelex using the Australia Post online platform. The purchase agreement being that I could collect the currency from my local Australia Post Office on Tuesday, 21/07/2026. This was important because I was leaving on the 22nd.

Despite the Euro being a globally traded currency, Travelex contacted me the next day to say they were unable to meet the agreed date, and would I accept delivery on 22/07/2026 (the day of my departure) and if not then they would cancel the transaction.

So, at 5:15 on Friday, 17/07/2026, I called the 24/7 contact telephone number listed on their emails, only to be told they couldn’t help me, and I would have to call back on Monday during office hours.

So, I emailed Travelex that evening to cancel the agreement and also called on Monday to confirm the cancellation. Despite this, Travelex processed the transaction and charged me.

I contacted Australia Post, who act as the agent for which they must be paid. However, they were quick to distance themselves and said I must take the matter up with Travelex.

Since then, I have written to Travelex on 6 separate occasions to request a refund. On 17/08/2026 (1 month later), I have been forced to write to Travelex for a 7th time because my money has still not been returned.

It was easy to sign up to the worldwide wallet. The cards arrived quickly. I travelled to Ireland and was easily able to use the cards there. It was… Read more

easy to transfer money from one account to the Wallet, and it was better than using the credit card which has a transaction fee for every currency change. However, I could not add the cards to my Wallet app on the iPhone which limited their use somewhat, as I tend to use all my other cards on the phone. It was awkward to see exactly how much was in the account at any given time, and it took me a little while to work out what balance I had in the account. I actually ended up using Revolut, as I was able to add it to my phone and I found it very handy.

Unreliable Travel Card – On a recent trip to the UK, Greece and Italy I found this card to be quite unreliable with failure to actually work in over half the transactions… Read more

attempted. I suspect it was the Mastercard side as my other Visa card worked everytime when the Mastercard failed.

Don’t use Crown currency for exchanging AU$ to Euros!!! I exchanged AU$1100 today and got only 600 Euros whereas others would have paid around 650 Euros. Therefore I will never use Crown Currency Exchange in Harbour Town S/Centre again!!! Show details

TLDR: It has been a nightmare getting access to my own funds. This is incredibly unethical, and I encourage everyone else in the same situation to… Read more

raise an AFCA complaint.

Details: I put money on my account for travel, and then tried to withdraw the money that I did not spend. I tried to access my money online, and couldn't. I was told to download the app to access it, and still couldn't transfer the money out of the account. After an hour with customer service I was told that there was a problem with their backend, but that the money would be transferred out of the account and into mine within 72 hours.

Two weeks pass with no response. I call back, the situation still can't be resolved. So I raise a complaint to escalate the situation. and am told that the request to transfer the funds was sent through to a team that just didn't respond or action it. I was then told I'd need to fill out a form to manually process the withdrawal. In 2026, a company apparently cannot get money out of my account digitally.

I fill out the form, and hear nothing. It's been 4 weeks. The amount showing in my account is now $0, but I haven't received funds to my bank account. I'm trying to confirm whether the money has been transfered to the wrong account, or if it's somehow in my account under a different transaction name. Customer service is non-existant and non-responsive.

Worked until I got back home to Australia and wanted to transfer the balance back to my bank account and close the CashPassport card . Nothing… Read more

online about how to do this despite everything about putting money ON the card . Difficulty getting through by phone for assistance with this matter. The customer service may be an overseas call centre as after trying to explain I wanted to transfer funds back to my bank account,the staff member did not appear to understand and said she would transfer me to another department. I then got cut off . I emailed and got an automated AI response which said I could only transfer funds by phoning the number on the card . After more attempts to try and get through I gave up . I will never use CashPassport again. My money still sits there and unable to transfer it back to my account. I will get the Australia Post Travel card for future travel. I can then just walk into my local post office and get great service.

accidentally. I waited for a call back, didn’t get one, so I rang again this morning only to be told the person was in meeting - no appology. Never got a call back. Clearly don’t want my business and not a great intro to how they treat prospective customers - wonder how they treat existing???? Can’t complain about the customer service because there wasn’t any. Looking at other reviews, looks like net prompter scores don’t mean much to this mob. I’ll go to another provider - gave me bad vibes. I’ll try 7-11 now or BP.

Extremely disappointing experience exchanging AUD to THB with Global Exchange in Australia. The rate I received was far worse than the actual market… Read more

rate, and on top of that there was an additional fee. For around $295 AUD, I only received 4,900 THB — significantly less than what a fair exchange would give.

While everything may have been technically disclosed, the overall pricing felt very misleading and poor value. This kind of spread is excessive and not what most customers would expect, especially in Australia where you assume reasonable transparency.

I would strongly recommend avoiding this service and using a bank or a reputable exchange with fair rates instead.

Will never use Westpac again – Loaded my card with Euros. Each ATM transaction blocked so no cash available. Tried to book rail tickets and card transaction blocked. Extreme… Read more

difficulty in getting my call answered. Finally got someone to answer. Told I hadn't activated my card. I had. Told the transactions were blocked as they were 'suspect' but I was trying to book on French Govt train site. Told to call back during business hours eventhough the Travel card app says 24hr support. Cost of call was exhorbitant. No help from Westpac at all. This has been going on for 2 weeks and still can't use my card. Having to rely on friends and family for money. Thanks Westpac.
