randomguy101 0 Posted March 24, 2014 I just processed an order with WU and it did not go through, I got this email from them: Dear [Name] Thank you for using the Western Union® Money TransferSM service.

<RJ> 0 Posted March 24, 2014 At two occasions they refused to send transfer my money because fraudulent behaviour by the receiver. But i didnt get any saying in it they just had me waiting for a week to get the money back. Then i had to do a banktransfer instead. Maybe this is a receiver that didnt get that status guite yet? Just go with the flow and dont say anything about reps. Say you are buying watches and/or watchparts? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Daywatch 4 Posted March 24, 2014 Hi, might be if it´s first order from China, maybe send a mail to the TD. Or just ask them what they want, You´re ordering some special leather straps. WU online transactions have these issues frequently, in the shop not. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kcawsey 0 Posted March 24, 2014 Had that notice first time I used WU to purchase in China, not a problem, they will want drivers licence no. etc. You don't have to tell them what you are purchasing , then money will go through OK, this will only happen once Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
