Bonjour,
J\'ai reçu récemment un mandat poste (Postal Money Order) Canadien en paiement. Le client est persuadé que cela ne doit pas poser de problèmes et mon bureau de poste ne veut rien savoir.
Quelqu\'un a une expérience sur ce sujet ?
Merci,
François

| Client should have sent a Bank Draft-Money Order | Jun 27, 2002 |
Your client should have gone to a BANK and ask them to issue a bank draft (Money order) in *Euro* to send to you.
Canada post only issued postal money orders in Canadian and US funds if my memory serves.
As far as I know, the postal money orders are mainly used for Canada & US... so I can understand why your local post office would not accept it.
You need a Bank Draft in Euro, which you will be able to cash at your local bank.

Peut-être une succursale française d\'une banque canadienne pourrait l\'encaisser?

François,
It depends. You should carefully read the money order. If it says \'international\', then your post office is OBLIGATED by international treaties to honour it. However, it is not impossible that your local post office is not allowed to honour it and you will have to go to a more important one.
If it is not an international one, your customer made a mistake and should issue you a new one.

International payments are a NORMAL service of virtually all national postal services all over the world.
There is absolutely no need to go through banks. On the contrary, banks are usually far more expensive: they charge higher fees and they give you a less advantageous exchange rate.

I have had similar problems with US checks/wire transfers, but never with a money order. Bypass your local bureau de poste and go dirctly to the city/regional central office. Once I got through to the right person, my problem was solved quickly.
Bonne chance!!

J\'avais présenté le mandat au bureau de poste central de Toulouse et pris ensuite les renseignements auprès de la personne chargée de l\'international dans leur service financier. Je crois que le problème est qu\'il ne s\'agit pas d\'un mandat international, cette mention ne figurant nulle part sur la formule.
Excellent week-end à tous,
François
