Once dispatched we email you the Royal Mail tracking number by 6pm on day of dispatch so you can keep an eye on it the whole way through the delivery system.
Delivery is between 8am and 1pm. The parcel is delivered by your regular postman. Royal Mail Next day Guaranteed is an excellent and reliable service. For peace of mind allow yourself 1 days grace in the event of a delay but these are extremely rare. Covent Garden FX is bound by Royal Mail Terms if items are delayed and have to allow them 10 working days before they will consider a claim for a lost parcel.
Working days are Monday to Friday. Exceptions apply on Bank Holidays.
When your order is dispatched we will send you an email with your Royal Mail Tracking number together with a link onto Royal Mails Track and Trace system. Your Tracking number will be activated when it is sorted and scanned at the Central London Sorting office, this normally appears between 8pm-9pm each evening. You will then be able to track your parcel to your door.
If it is past 1pm and the parcel does not show on Royal Mail's system that it is on route for delivery then please contact us. If it is shown as on route, then the postman must be running a little behind. In the rare occasion that they fail to deliver next day, we find that they do get delivered following day.
Our advice to our customers is that you should order your currency at least a week in advance and no less than 3 working days to avoid the stress or a late delivery.
Then please do contact us and we will work with you to locate the parcel. On the rare occasions that no tracking numbers appear it tends to be down to an IT issue on Royal Mail's Tracking system. If it's not then we can start an investigation with Royal Mail, but we have to wait 10 working days before Royal Mail will consider parcel as lost.
At this point we can claim for a lost parcel and the whole process takes 28 days from the point of claim for Royal Mail to respond back.
We offer delivery across offices in the City of London only. We understand that you may be working and can not come to collect your money at a convenient time. Please note that this service is subject to availability.
