Sorry to hear you had a little time to wait on your currency, Mr Parr. This isn't typical of the service our colleagues at Waitrose provide, so I'm sure if you use our Travel Money service again in future, you'll receive your order much quicker. ^Al

Credit card that offers money confidence

Credit card that answers many of my financial questions. Excellent customer care, paying particular attention to ensuring my financial security, placing me as the client at the centre of their service, offering me opportunities to take fraud prevention measures seriously. 0% on purchases for 6 months has given me financial freedom to face rising multi sector costs.
