CARD PAYMENTS
Our office can accept and process cheque payments for
all American Express cards. Payments CANNOT be accepted in local
currency but rather in US, Canadian or Pound Sterling; via a Bank Draft,
Personal Cheque, or Travellers Cheques.
Credit for a payment made at a Travel Service
Franchise Office will not be posted to the account until it is processed
at the Remittance Centre in which country the account is based.
Payments are batched and sent from our office via DHL
to American Express every Wednesday and Friday. Have your payment
delivered to our office before 10:00 a.m. to ensure it is included the
same day. The Cardmember name and account number are required for
processing.
EMERGENCY CHEQUE CASHING
Card members may obtain funds by cashing a Cheque
drawn against a personal overseas bank account. This transaction is
subject to limits, frequencies, restrictions and local regulations.
These funds are paid ONLY in American Express US$ Travelers Cheques and
a Travelers Cheque fee of 1% is charged. Proper identification, the Amex
Card and a Personl Cheque are required for this transaction.
All Emergency Cheque Cashing requests are subject to
authorization. Card members can in Emergency situations use counter
cheques to obtain funds.

type of card product used, while counter cheques have a limit of US$500
equivalent.
EMERGENCY CARD REPLACEMENT
Card members may obtain an Emergency Replacement Card
quickly if the card is lost, stolen, or mutilated, in most cases within
24 hours of the request.
