I have never had any problems sending the monthly assistance to my brother. And, my brother has never experienced any problems picking up the money with which he is able to pay for his children's schooling and transportation to and from school. Thank you.

I have a worst experience with WU
I have a worst experience with WU. I sent money from my bank account in the US to my bank in Pakistan around $1792 on May 11. WU charged my account but still it didn't deposit in my account in Pakistan. Also, I tried to send money again, WU blocked me. I am having a great problem with WU. Now I am going to send directly from my bank account.

Fast transfers
Fast transfers. Overall good experience. Wish there were more promotions or lower fees. And would like ability to update personal information. Some countries make it difficult to transfer if sender doesn’t have middle name listed, had I known this I would have included my middle name when I created my account.

The change rates are low as much as I went money they always charge the fee of sending money
PAYMENT METHOD PUZZLE
Transactions are smooth, no
problem. However, with the very same debit card I use in my WU account many times, I am steered to Google Pay to pay for the transaction and denied to use the very same bank, CHASE, that issued the card! Google Pay charge is higher than any other method.
I can't guarantee the dates I've been led to the Google Pay rather than Chase, but have been denied by WU to use the very bank that issued the very card WU has on my account.
It's very important an easy to send money home
My experience with Western Union it's very reliable to me while I'm busy but I'm still half time to send money to my family
