Please sell Fair Fx to me

[Sunset_Princess]

Ive read a few posts on here about Fair Fx and looked on their website... I'd like to get their money card and then also cash from them as their rate seems really good compared to others. Im just used to going into a shop to get my dollars and never bought them online so a little uncertain about it. Has anyone ever had any problems with them? How long did it take to arrive?

My card arrived quite quickly and what I like about it is that I can add to the card as I have spare cash so that it builds up without me really noticing.

A good tip is to have a second card (either yourself or in a partners name so if you lose the card on holiday you can ring up and they will transfer the balance to the other card. I had a nightmare of losing my card in Disneys Hollywood Studios and was somewhat panicked - in the end I found the card, a CM on the ride I had last been on saved the day and made me a happy lady!

It is convenient and easy to use, never found anywhere refuse to take the card for payment and saves me carrying a lot of cash.

Had mine over 3 years now, just renewed it and havent had any problems, used it to pay for our disney wedding, used it here, mexico, florida, tenerife and egypt with no problems

Loads up really quick and i like the fact i can log in while away and load more and check my balance as we take a laptop with us

Perfect for us and the rate is normally more than anywhere else

Also back by newcastle building society so should have all the rit client money precautions in place if anythimg happens to them

I have found my card really useful, I had a payday whilst out in florida and was able to use the wifi signal in epcot to top up my card using my iPhone without any commission charges etc and they money was available within an hour.

We used the card for the first time last year and had no problems at all with it. The only slight negative is that you can't check your balance in a cash machine, we took a netbook so we could check our balance online. Also we kept a small notebook of our transactions just so we could keep a close eye on the balance

We also ordered cash from them and it was very quick delivery, next day if ordered before noon, if afternoon it was 2 days.

Couldn't fault them at all

I have a FairFx card too and have used it with no worries. I also add bits of money every now and again. I'm really happy with it. We only use it to get cash and still use a regular CC to swipe for car and hotel etc.

I renewed mine on 22/7/11 and I still haven't received my new card! I've just e-mailed them to find out if they've sent it and if so when it was sent!

Thanks for your replies everyone! How long does the card take to arrive? Im going to order card and money together so i'm assuming they will come together?

this happened to my sil to, around the same time as well. she was told it was in the post, then when after a wk or so it still hadnt arrived she phoned them only to be told it must of been lost in the post-so another was sent out which she got within a few days..

I have also had a fairfx for 3 yrs just renewed it, great card the only downfall now is that you have to load around £50, used to be able to put the odd £20 on it and that soon built up, now its £50
