Anyone still using Western Union as the primary transfer?

[Journeyman]

Some habits are hard to break but this one should NOT be one of them...

Here in Maryland Neteller is not an option, which makes it more difficult for sure...

Has WU become tougher to use? I have not used WU but one time in the past 3 years...:nono5:

I do. I only post up 950 at a time and use a fake name to send to my post up books. dont go any larger than that because I can use my 2 credit outs for that, and WU requires ID when sending 1000 or more.

I have never encountered any problems using WU and I have been using them steady for the past 4 years.

 

[sherman]

[THEPOSTMAN!]

(friend owns a check cashing place )

Jman, i have never had problems with using western union, i have a chick friend that lives down the road from my store, she works at the check cashing office, she takes care of everything for me.. never once had a problem and i send and recieve over 1k at times...

 

[aceduecetrey]

I unfortunatly have been placed on a list that makes it impossible to send or recieve WU. Damn govt., yet another thing they have screwed up for me.

 

[Noreaga+]

also,

last year I took a risk and had a payout of 5k via western union.. no problems whatsoever...except from getting that **** all in 20's

In my opinion Neteller is by far the best option, especially given that transfers from Neteller to your bank account are free. Also very easy to tranfer funds from book to book.

I use the ability for books to payout WU as a scale of how established and solid a book is. My theory is that the books that are still paying out Western Union are favored over the ones that no longer can, or have severe limits on how much a player can collect a day. These companies in Nicaragua, Belize, Suriname, etc. are feeling the legal pressures and seem to have chosen the books that deal in heavier volumes over the ones that do not.

I use WU.

I've never used WU. Aren't WD's expensive, Sherman ?

 

[Journeyman]

The fee is brutal, while you get it taken care of coming in, recieving is a b!tch...I always liked it though, going to that cash window, I would be lying if I said i didn't get a charge out of being paid that way...

A few years back i withdrew a dime a day for several days straight, and i got a kick out of the girl at the WU giving me the strange look like I was either big time or doing something that was questionable, lol...She started asking me lots of questions..I even sent her a rose and tried to start dating her but she was hard to get to know..and she was only 22 lol...

 

[HacheMan]

I would rather use Western Union in which fees are usually reimbursed by the book any day over using Neteller INstacash.

 

[Dante]

have not used it in over 2 yrs and will never again..neteller is to awesome with there debit card and direct dep

 

[Doug]

That's why I don't use them, I've read about the fees and rules stating payback same way. NT for me. At first I would mail MO's. I've done E-checks with SIA, but it's been years since I've used anything but NT.

 

[HacheMan]

Dante, last time I inquired you hadn't used your Neteller debit card yet. Can you give a little bit more info on it?

 

[Noreaga+]

yea isnt ther a 1000 daily max withdrawal? thats ridiculous

 

[AK]

Yes, primary source.

I do. I only post up 950 at a time and use a fake name to send to my post up books.

So you have multiple account names at books?

I have done this before, be careful, western union has the right to verify your ID anytime even if its less than 1 dime. I have had it done to me and they called the police for using a different name which is some sort of federal fraud.

 

[Noreaga+]

AK- no.. most books will ask you did you send it under your name? its not a big deal if you say no..and give them the name it is sent under

Dante, last time I inquired you hadn't used your Neteller debit card yet. Can you give a little bit more info on it?

sure hache It is just like your regular bank debit card you get a pin number and you can also use it to buy things at stores... they charge a .75 fee or something for using it as a debit card in stores and $1.50 plus what the local atm charges for a atm withdrawal unless you find a fee free one thru the neteller website


it costs 2$ to transfer funds from your neteller account to your debit card but its free to dep it back to your neteller acct
