This seems to be common. Except I will be more blunt. I received an inheritance. One thing I've never done in my life is sex with many people. COVID was here. I started talking to cam models. I sent several about $3, 000 USD. All were 100% legal. This is a major/massive cam site. I am 100% willing to pay taxes, put my name, drivers license and other state documented ID on file. I was sending a bit of money. These people are not RICH. This money was helping them. I absolutely was paying my western union fees - I paid quite a bit in fees. I was hurting no one. I have BPD/PTSTD and numerous other concerns. Going outside is tough for me. I do not need pity. But banks launder hundreds of millions of dollars. I look at a bit of porn and helps some chicks and I am flagged as satan?

What is the part that is not ok. I require western union for business - now it is flagged. Western Union is 100% unwilling to speak with me in any way about their decision. I am an adult, I can provide full legal documentation. I broke no laws. I am never happy to get up and go outside, often depressed. This CAM Models did not change my life - lol. But for a brief period it was fun. I will survive without it. It is annoying Western Union just spits on people though. Plays god and ignores their customers. I can not imagine me doing this to someone. That is absurd. I've used Western Union my entire life. IT has been branded to me as a responsible corporate company.

When I attempted to get any additional information reps at WU were rude, unfriendly and just bitter. This has been an awful experience. I realize I will be further isolated, laughed and degraded for being honest. But I did nothing wrong I used a service.

After sending money for years to the same few people my transfer was suddenly held on "suspision of fraud". I was called and interviewed and answered some of the questions )frankly some were way out of line and had NO bearing to the transaction) and spoke of how I have personally know the reciever and met with them "face to face" so I can assure them I am willingly sending to someone I know! However I am not going to just hand over sensitive information without any explanation as to why they would need it for the purpose of my transaction nor who would have access to it. Bad bussiness and UNSAFE! Along with that after emailing them three times and calling as many I was constantly read the same montage of statements which proved they were NOT listeneing to the issue. WORTHLESS! After answering all the questions proving I knew my people they STILL considered it a fraud threat!

Both I, the payee and the sender complained to WU about a non payment of a simple $54 transaction. WU in Spain and in the US both said it was paid and collected. Neither one could simple tell us who got paid and who signed for the money.
Both US and Spain WU offices advised that we should contact WU and file complaint, which we did. Same BS. Telling us both it had been collect but no proof.
I am removing my payment options from my website that suggests using Western Union as an alternate payment method.

I sent money using the app to send money and it got cancelled by western union. I did nothing wrong and got banned. I would like to get reinstated to be able to send and receive money. I have sent money several times through an agent and it was sent successfully. I'm just not understanding why I got banned.

I have been with western union for about eight years. This week I made a mistake and tried to sent too much money too soon. I call to see why my transaction had been rejected and was told the above too much too soon. The first assistant I spoke too told me I would have to have a full review and it would take up to 30 days. When I called again I was told that all was ok and I could send 4000 pound so I tried again and was rejected again so I called again and was told all was ok this went on for two days. Then I was told to try a different brouser so I did still nothing so then I was told to download the app for my phone I tried again I thought that had worked but when I got to the end I had a message to go to a western union branch so I went cost me 6.50 and still it was rejected and was told to call customer services when I called I was asked al kinds of questions and in the end was told that all was ok. Then 30 minutes later I had another message to say my final transaction was cancelled and my wife had to contact western union in colombia to register with giros and finanzas so she walked 20 minutes to the local western union they contacted the office in bogota and they said my wife is already registered with them. So what is going on I have been a good customer for the last eight years I have a good mind nerver to use your services ever again. Mr sc baldwin - jewkes

While I was about to send money to my previous employer in Bangladesh, the system showed a message that I can't send and complete the transfer.
Which was very shocking to me. As I have a lot of family obligations that needs multiple money transfers in a month.
Last time on 26 of August when I was about to send money to my previous servant in Bangladesh Khadiza Eyakub, the employee noticed a message in the system denoting that I'm not allowed to complete the money transfer, even receiving money via Western Union, the next day my sister sent money to me for my old mother via Western Union, that I was not able to collect the money as I was banned from system without any prior notice.

Wired $2k within the US, and Western Union supposedly needs more than five days before they will release it. I used the app and the money was accessed by Western Union the same day I submitted the request. Submitted the request on a Tuesday before noon. Money cannot be accessed by the receiver until the following Monday afternoon. So Western Union is making money off my money in the meantime, in addition to the $26 transfer fee they charged

My name is Ghislaine Louis For the past 2 months I had a issue with western union put a banned on my name I can't sending or received money in USA and overseas my family is in Haiti I can't sent money to them IAM not doing anything wrong I just have a bunch of people friends and family to help I am a hard working woman I don't do business, I don't sale merchandise I don't do anything wrong I want that problem solve for to have my freedom to send money to my family and friends my money came from my job my paycheck

I have been using Western Union to send money to my loved ones internationally and domestically since 2010. I never had any problems. A few days ago, I sent some money to my brother overseas to help him with some medical expenses. The agent told me that the money has been transferred and gave me the MTCN. A few hours later, my receiver (brother) phoned me to tell me that the agent at the receiving location told him that the MTCN is wrong and no money was shown to be associated with it. After hours spent on phone calls with WU agents, I was informed that my money transfer was cancelled. I asked why but I was provided with no answer. From that point on, I spent more hours calling WU. Every time an agent would place me on hold before I get disconnected minutes later. I persisted in calling WU for hours and finally an agent told me that the money I sent was refunded and I had to go an pick it up. Again, no reason or justification was given as to why the transfer was cancelled except that a hold was placed on the transaction by the compliance department. I asked to speak to someone at the compliance department and, again, i went through a long episode of phone calls, phone transfers, and then disconnection. I finally decided to pick up my money so I went and Picked up the money the day before yesterday (i.e., 7/11/2021). I asked the agent who refunded the money if they could explain to me what happened to no avail. To add insult to injury (actually the agent described it as dump on the WU side), WU only refunded the money I sent without the associated fees. This resulted in more hours spent on phone to get the fees I paid refunded. Long story short, I got the fees refunded and have not picked them up at the time of writing this complaint. Today at around 1:00 pm, again after many phone calls and holds, I was transferred to the compliance department. I explained what happened to the representative and he told me the following: "Sir, the reason why your transfer did not go through is that you are not allowed to use WU anymore". Why, I asked. "I cannot disclose the reason" the representative replied. I told him that there must be something wrong as I sent money via WU just a few months ago. I received the same answer from the representative "you are not allowed to use WU anymore and I cannot disclose the reason". I asked what to do next to appeal this "vague decision". And he gave me an email address to request a form that I can fill out and resend to WU. I asked about the anticipated timeframe of this process and the representative said it may take months.

The above was an objective account of what I have been through and what I was told. Below is my explanation.

What triggered the ban on me sending money to my loved ones is nothing legitimate. As far as I am concerned, it is an unethical corporate conduct driven by a rogue company . If there is a legitimate reason, I am sure that WU would have disclosed it. This conduct is shameful, unethical, and runs counter to the basic principles of human rights and fiduciary obligations of a company to its costumers. I am unable to help someone in urgent need of medical care because WU has suddenly decided that I am not good enough to use their service and for no good, "known", reason.

I've been doing business with Western Union for many years. Recently I've encountered a problem entering my address. It seems that their system recognizes my address as a PO box. Doesn't matter the address that I enter its the same response. I've complained many, many times. I was a!lowed to work with a rep to fulfill my transaction. Now I've been denied that help. I have tried entering in my debit card number per the rep instructions into their system which also does not work.

So obviously there is something going on with my name as it doesn't matter the address.

I have an open ticket with the webcare team however none of the suggestions to fix this issue have helped and no one has tried to figure out this issue.
Correction, I received a response that my eTag (?) doesn't work. That was it! I have no idea what that is.

Not one person is concerned that my family member can't eat, is now staying under an overpass because I'm unable to use WU system and not one person is willing to go the extra mile. If only they would put themselves in my position maybe then they will understand the catastrophic results of this situation.

The most telling thing about WU's practices is that there is no listing for anyone at the Corporate level. That alone is a huge statement regarding the type of leadership that runs this company.

What I've taken away from this experience is that my $10 to $30 per transaction is a small amount that doesn't affect the bottom line.

I'm just stating that we all want to feel that our business is wanted, needed and valued. Its the customers that keep your business running. I'm loyal to you so loyalty deserves to be rewarded with compassion, kindness and understanding.

Can someone please go the extra mile for me?!

On June 29, 2021 I had sent money via Western Union, via my bank "Scotiabank" from Canada. The request transaction was made on the phone and the request was for the receiver to collect the money in USA dollars.
The person that was addressed the money lives in Lima-Peru. She attended to the location around 3pm on June 30th, 2021 at Plaza San Miguel (3er. floor, cashier #3).
The attendant (female), didn't want to give the money in American dollars as it was indicated in the transaction. She tried to convince and verbally force my relative to collect only 200 USA dollars, and the rest in Peruvian currency.
This behaviour is very common in Peru, as they take advantage of the client, and sell / change the dollars in Peru soles (currency), usually they don't report this to Western Union and they use the dollars to sell them under the table for personal gains.
My relative didn't accept this pressure from the cashier and decided to attend to another location where she didn't have any issues. She received the amount as indicated by me the sender in USA dollars.
I just want to mention, this is not the first time that I sent money, but this is the first time that I have problems and appeared that this particular cashier is using Wester Union to make her own profit. She was not polite and raised her voice to my relative (elderly 65 years old)
This behaviour is not acceptable and I hope Wester Union will take care in this matter and let me know the results.

Today I went to the Western Union at Publix located in North Miami. I gave the lady the reference number [protected] and was told that I could not receive the money. The money was sent to me by a friend, Jacob Osorio who lives in Flushing Queen New York. I called Western Union and was informed that the the money was returned to my friend. I want to inquire why I was not able to receive the money. Please call me at [protected]. I appreciate all the help you offer me. Thank you.
My name is William P. Cappote and I reside at 14850 West Dixie Hwy apt. 3 North Miami, Fl. 33181

Our family has been sending money each week to six Nepalese guides that we trekked with in Nepal in 2017. Our family decided to send them RM 200.00 each every month to help them through the hardship of losing their source of income during the Covid outbreak. They cannot work because tourism and trekking has completely stopped. The account is under my husband's name.

In April I was informed that I could not transfer money and that I should speak to a representative. I called the local Western Union office and was given an e-mail ([protected]@westernunion.com) to find out why. I e-mailed them. And then about a month later received a reply asking for personal details, which I provided. They were my own personal details. Should I have provided my husband's details?

A month later I was given a reply that they had determined that I would be permanently banned from using Western Union. I was given no reason or proof and I was given no recourse to discuss or clarify or even make things right. Just arbitrarily banned. This has badly affected these Nepalese families. One of them was using the money to afford milk for his newborn son. And now we are being prevented from giving financial relief to these families so badly affected by Covid with no recourse! This is ethically wrong and irresponsible and I cannot imagine this is a legal business practice in the banking industry.

I'm having problem sending money through western union can you please help me. My name Walter LaForte phone number [protected]

Date of transaction: may 31, 2021. Transaction was done at walgreens-fairbanks, alaska:store 15944. After this, the recipient cannot extract the funds for a misspelled first name. Error name: went back on june 1, 2021 to walgreens store to try and make the correction, then I and the manager talked to an agent on our 800 number. My id was presented to the store manager for verification. And was assured that the error to the name sopie, will be corrected to reflect sophie. All other names, middle names, last names were correct. Still, more errors transpired in that the first name sophie was corrected, but the middle name maselina was misspelled madelina, and the last name hazelman was misspelled hazleman. The full and correct name of the recipient should be: sophie maselina agnes hazelman. Tried to resolve the issued by phone:800 number, but was told to go back again to a store/agent to make and verified my transaction.
It would be easier to refund my money, and I can again, willing to resent the funds and paid for the additional fee. Its taking too much of my time, and creating stress for a simple issue to resolve.
Mtcn #[protected], sender name: philip langford, recipient name:sophie maselina agnes hazelman, destination samoa. Amount of transaction:$280.00 plus $8.00 fee.
Appreciate any assistance, and thank you for your attention.
