Cancellation & Refund Policy
> Cancellation of Rate Locked Forex Orders (Forex Orders with a fixed rate & validity time)Forex rates are subject to major fluctuations. If you are booking a forex transaction with ExTravelMoney (Buy Currency, Sell Currency, Money Transfer Abroad, Forex Card), you will have a facility of locking the exchange rate of the transaction (available only on working days and during working hours)*. For locking the exchange rate, you’ll have to pay a fully Refundable Rate Lock Deposit which is treated as a safety deposit and will be refunded to you completely when the transaction is completed within the specified period of the rate lock validity. This Refundable Rate Lock Deposit can be paid via Paytm Wallet, International Credit or Debit Card or through Net Banking, using our secure payment gateway.
- A Rate Locked forex order is liable to be cancelled for reasons including but not limited to the transaction not being executed within the specified time mentioned in the forex estimate sent by ExTravelMoney through email or the chosen forex product not being available at the chosen forex store.
- The Rate Locked forex order booked by you will be honoured subject to your eligibility in terms of the applicable laws, rules, regulations, bye laws, ordinances and notifications, as well as verification of the documents submitted by you to our partnered RBI approved money changing stores.
- The partnered money changers may refuse to fulfill the Rate Locked forex orders for reasons including but not limited to non-compliance of regulatory requirements (FEMA, CFT, KYC guidelines) or for non-availability of supporting documents required as per RBI / FEMA guidelines or the Anti-Money laundering Guidelines of the RBI or under any other circumstances. In such instances the forex order will attract cancellation charges of our partnered money changer and will result in the Rate Lock Deposit being forfeited fully or refunded to you partially depending upon the loss incurred by our partnered money changer due to withholding the forex. It is clarified that we shall not be responsible or be held liable for any damage of injury caused to you in such eventuality, and you may approach the pertinent money changer directly in this regard for all and every clarification.
