I was sent $198.00 through Western Union on the Morning of 5-27-2014. I went to (3) Western Union Locations and they no longer provide the service due to problems dealing with Western Union. I then went to the 4th Western Union and they only SEND money and no longer are willing or able to give money. I was basically shoved out the door and told to go to Bellingham, MA (IRVING GAS) "El Belcher" location.
When I was arrived there, they informed me that they only provide MONEY ORDERS or a Debt Card that charges $2.00 per transaction. It took me nearly 45 minutes on the phone with WESTERN UNION to get the Temporary Number and then the Manager at Irving provided me with a MONEY ORDER that I have to bring to a bank and wait 3-5 business days for the Money Order to CLEAR before I can have access to the Money.
Dealing with Western Union is one of the WORST EXPERIENCES I have had trying to receive money. I will use P***** from now on..
