I planned for my first international travel to Malaysia, and Indonesia. At first I did not have any idea about Forex cards. I though I had to take cash and remember all the currency values. But to my surprise I found about HDFC Multi currency Forex card just a day before my departure. I went t straight to the bank branch, Gachibowli, in Hyderabad. The staff was very helpful. Offered me regalia nd Multi currency Forex. from which I opted for Multi currency card(but I think regalia is better, Not sure). I had to pay the money upfront and they informed me, I will get my card the next day. I feared, what if I didn’t get my card on time, or what if it had activation issues, as I had deposited all my into it. The next day, I was informed that my flight was pre-poned from 5 pm to 12pm, and I didn’t even get the card yet. I immediately called the bank representative, they were very helpful, asked me to submit the copy of my travel docs by which they can provide the card as soon as possible. I emailed them the ticket, and they informed me to visit the Main Branch, where my card will be ready in an hour. I was still in panic as I have to reach the airport on time. I went to the said branch and asked about my card as said by the bank representative, to my surprise, my card was ready and they informed me, that to check I can just buy something from online foreign store like for 1 MYR to check, and I did and it was active. The service was great and the bank representatives were very helpful. I did not had any issues while in travel and came back happy.
