The Romanian Post has extended its automated counter network with a number of 210 post offices. At the beginning of the year the number of the automated post offices was 73 and they were located in the main cities. Today, the automated postal services are available in all the cities in Romania.
The post offices' connection to the Romanian Post information network ensures the real-time provision of the financial postal services: On-line money orders, Western Union money transfers, Eurogiro transactions. The services are based on the most modern data transmission protocols which are using new methods of accessing remote databases.
The On-line money order service is a quick money transfer service for un-limited amounts of money and the transaction time is within one hour. The Romanian Post's Eurogiro service is covering the relation with Switzerland, Japan, Turkey and Germany. The customers expecting money from outside the country may receive it at the automated counters in the local currency (lei) or in US Dollars via Western Union. This system operates in 186 countries.
The extension of the automated post offices network is part of the Romanian Post's development plan that aims to modernize all the post offices in the country and to provide its customers with European standards services, beginning with the big cities up the remote localities.
