In Spain, holiday money providers and some banks are starting to propose online currency exchange services to their clients with three delivery options:
a) buy and pay online and get the currency at home/the office or withdraw it from an office of the courier company (Correos, MRW, Seur, Nacex, etc.). Some of them will allow you to pay cash on delivery when you will be delivered the order in hand.
b) place a reservation for Indian Rupees. Then select a store of the supplier where to pick it up from (online payment with a bank card).
c) place an online booking for Indian Rupees. Afterwards choose an office near your home or work where to pick up and pay. In this modality, the price you pay for your currency may be sometimes that of the day you made the online booking, and in others, the price the day you you present yourself at the office of the foreign currency supplier.
