They e-mailed and confirmed at the time of the transaction a REF. number. You can choose a pick up point and time when you are arranging the money transfer. The site address is http://www.travelex.co.uk/
We picked it up at our local airport exchange office as i know where it is. They rang us up 2 days before to confirm the money transaction and that the money was there. At first using the net we were a bit worried it would all go wrong but we are very confident with there service and had no problems.

Will try ringing them tomorrow and see if we can pay in cash - although no one seems to like cash these days !
