The Western Union Company Reviews (%countItem)

I am going to make sure that the entire world finds out about the injustice that western union is committing, denying me the possibility of sending money to my daughter who is in the Dominican Republic studying and cannot come back to the United States now due to the coronavirus. I'm going to all the social networks so that everyone knows. They state that I failed the checking thing. I am been a customer of Western Union since 2005. I have never had an issue, I am a completely legal person and I use this company to send money to my family. Today when I need it more, they denied the transaction. My daughter is with no money in Dominican Republic, she is about to be kicked out of her apartment, she has not even money for food. This injustice have to be spread so the entire word knows about it. Thank you.

I want to know how much I made as a transfer last year to put it in my taxes. I contacted Western Union and I sent them the form, but they said it will take 21 days. I spoke to the manager, her name is Maite, March 10, 2020. I can not wait for all this time. I only need the total amount, and the proof later. she said I did 15 transactions, this means she saw them but she refused to give me the amount and I can add them. this made me upset because it is easy for her to tell me. There is no excuse. I begged her to tell me asking for any proof to confirm my identity, but she was very cold towards me. She refused without a reason.

I sent a payment for my *** card for about $3200 via western union on Feb 24th. The western union staff (Publix supermarket employee) put the wrong account number in the payment and I noticed immediately after receiving my receipt. They then proceeded to call western union to correct the issue. For some reason or another the issue wasn't corrected although I was led to believe it would be and wasn't an issue, since I didn't make any mistake and it was the employee at the store. Barclays says they haven't received the money and western union says they have. I have been playing phone tag for hours between western union and barclays. I have called multiple times. The response I get is baclays says it hasn't recieved any contact from WU and WU says the have sent multiple contact requests. This needs resolving, it is a big sum of money.

I have been using Western Union to make my monthly mortgage payments to Select Portfolio Servicing. My monthly payment is about $2800. When I first elected to use Western Union, I was unable to set up the "pay bill" feature. I contacted WU on several occasions via website and phone. They came up with a whole plethora of alibis and excuses about why I was unable to set up payment, i.e. check with your bank, your credit card was denied, etc. In fact, I checked with the credit card issuer and my bank and was informed that there were no problems or impediments. When I called Western Union, they offered to execute the payment for me - for a fee of $130! Then, Western Union instructed me to go to a Western Union location, but there were unable to execute the payment as well. So, instead of making one payment of $2800 and paying a $15-20 fee for Western Union, I had to set up two separate payments of $2000 (with an $18.50 fee) and a separate payment of $767.37 (with an additional $16.50 fee). So, instead of having one simple payment, for the past several months, I have had to pay DOUBLE fees each month.

Most recently, when I made the $2000 payment to my mortgage company, the fee I was being assessed was now $79 (up from $18.50). Again, I contacted Western Union - without success. I even sent an inquiry on their website with the promise that "We'll attempt to contact you within 24 hours ". Well, that was all for naught. Just lies and empty promises. Nobody from Western Union ever contacted me within 24 hours, or even five days later.

What a disappointment!!!

Customer Response • Mar 31, 2020

Complaint: ***

I am rejecting this response because:

1) Western Union has refused to accept responsibility for their gross negligence in assisting me in setting up bill payments to Select Portfolio Servicing. Instead of answers, they just came up with a whole plethora of alibis, excuses and fabrications

2) They have failed to explain why I was paying a $18.50 fee for payments to Select Portfolio Servicing, yet, the last time I paid the bill, that the fee was $79.00.

When I called the "headquarters" phone number, it was actually a call center in Central America.

Please have a director from Western Union headquarters in Colorado call me regarding this matter.

Sincerely

Western Union essentially stole money from my family. I say it is a theft because I paid money and received neither a product or service, nor and customer support from the company.
Let me explain. Western Union will also be able to see all my case details under Case ID. Which has apparently been resolved to THEIR satisfaction.
On February 14 2020 I placed a money transfer from their agent location to family members in Europe. The next day I was informed by those family members that the MTCN was not valid. Upon investigation at the agent location we found out that the MTCN simply didn't exist in WU systems. Remember that at this point I had been charged, and an MTCN provided on the receipt. WU Customer Service (after an hour of the agent location arguing with them) gave me the information to open a case ID for investigation. They said this process lasts between 2 and 4 hours.
So I opened a Case ID and sent an email with all relevant receipts, bank statement screenshots, etc. In the meantime, I don't have the money to replace what was lost so our family on the other end is suffering.
There was no sense of urgency from WU.
24 hours later, I called them. They needed another 24 or 48 hours, I let a couple days pass by and tried again. They needed another 24 hours. I called back the next day, they needed 4 more days. I waited 4 days, they needed another 24 hours.
They called me and asked me to get my bank to initiate a chargeback. My bank could do nothing since I paid the agent location and not WU directly.
I called WU back, again they need 24 more hours to investigate.
I called back the next day (today), and they told me there was a resolution to the Case ID - They did not receive the money so they cannot refund. What?
So to be clear here, I paid money for a transfer, was given all receipts including an MTCN tracking number, the agent location vould do nothing since an MTCN was issued; and my bank could do nothing since I paid the agent location and no WU, and WU won't do anything because they did not receive the money.
So, the money is just gone I guess. And both the customer service agent and the on duty Supervisor that was working Wed March 4 2020 at around 4pm MST could care less about that.
This is by far the absolute worst customer service I have received from any company, regardless of the type of service they provide. It is no way to conduct business. If I could give less than one star for the time, energy, and grief they have caused me in the last three weeks I would.
It is now my personal mission to make sure as many people as possible know how they choose to do business, and by doing that I hope to make the company lose much more money that they stole from me and my family.
Thanks for reading.

15 year customer blocked from using Western Union for unknown reasons.
Upon inquiring, I was told to fill out and return, via email, two pages of personal information. They are asking for private info such as birth certificate and marriage certificate. It is unsafe to request this level of private information in this manner. This will no doubt lead to more identity theft.
In my option, they are discriminating against individuals who need to use the service to help love ones.

I purchased a money order Feb 8 the money order was for 500 and lost. It has not been cashed I sent the documents Westernunion said to do. I email and call everyday everyone is rude and keep telling me the didnt receive my paperwork I have to wait.

My Bank "Peoples Choice Credit Union, Australia" transferred AU$3000 / US$1941through Western Union to my trading account at Wells Fargo on the 2nd February 2020 and being the 4th March 2020, the funds have not arrived in my account. I have been in touch with my bank numerous times over the past 4 weeks and they tell me the funds have been transferred and they are waiting to hear from Western Union. I have called Western Union and they referred me back to my bank for information. After spending $98 for a service to transfer funds that have not arrived, this is not good enough as I am losing income on a daily basis. Your support in this matter would be much appreciated.

I purchased several Money Orders for the purposes of paying my rent. The Money Orders were returned to me and marked as received but not cashed. I have been trying to get a refund from Western Union since November of 2019. Although their website claims that refunds require up to 30 days for processing, it is now March 2020 and I continue to be jerked around by the employees of Western Union. At this point, this qualifies as theft. I have no idea when or if I will be refunded, and am considering taking legal action.

I tried paying my rent using a money order with western union. I needed two money orders, this is important later on. The money orders were stolen from the front office box where people in my complex drop their rent off. There was a police investigation which retrieved the copies of the money orders and it was found out that these were forged and illegally used by someone who was not intended to use them. I went through a long and complicated process in order to try and stop payment of said money orders and was unsuccessful and ultimately tried to get my money back from Western Union. They sent me forms to fill out. I had to attach the police reports and affidavits of what happened and notarized. I only received one of my checks back and the other I got a letter saying it could not happen. This is illegal and I should have my money back, they should have never allowed a money order that was obviously tampered to be used. This is on Western Union. They even agree, a.k.a. they refunded one already.

Forgery affidavit was notarized on June 17th, 2019;
however, we did not receive your documentation until September 20th, 2019. Thereafter a denial letter was sent to you on December
5th, 2019.

an amount of money was sent to me by western union (4k) that they have not been able to provide. When I called Western union they sent me to 2 different location around my area where western union assured me they would provide me with the money. The first location (safeway, ***) said that they do not dispense more than $2,999. They didn't provide me with any information as to what to do. I called Western union and they sent me to a second location (western union ***) where they did not provide me with much information but that they could not give me that amount. When I requested more information, the wester union representative was extremely rude and used inappropriate language. According to her, western union should have called her in order to make sure she could provide the funds. She also didn't provide me with a solution. I called several time to western union where they asked me to go to this same places again but they said they couldn't call to confirm they would dispense the money. One time they told me they would call the location and call me back and they never did. I chatted online were they didn't provide me with any other info but the same locations previously suggested. I asked if they could deposit my money directly into my bank account or explain a way in which I could do that on my own by logging into my western union account. They said I could not do that. I tried on my own to log in and create a transfer to no avail. I'm extremely frustrated. western union promises to transfer money quickly but in an emergency case this has proven to not be accurate.

I purchased a $50 Western Union money order from Great Stops located on *** for the purpose of paying an application fee at an apartment complex the money order was made payable to The Willow. Due to the fact that I did not financially qualify for the apartment the property manager contacted me and told me that since I did not meet the income requirement for the apartment the will return the money order to me and I can come and pick it up. I called Great stops to see if I could return the money order and get my money back and they said that they are not licensed to cash the money order and that I should contact my bank. I call my bank to see if they would cash the money order and they said that since the money order was made out to the apartment complex they could not cash it. Then I call western Union's 800 number and a representative told me that the money order was cashed on February 18, 2020. I went to the apartment complex today, February 25, 2020, and the property manager pulled my file and showed me the money order. I told her that Western union told me that the money order was cashed on February 18, 2020. She said no, I have the money order right here. she further said that they did not process the application nor deposit the money order because I did not meet the income requirement. We both called Western Union and spoke to a representative and the representative told the property manager the same thing, that the money order was cash on February 18th. The property manager asked the representative, who cashed the check? and the representative said she could not tell us and that if the purchaser wanted to put a tracer on the money order it would cost $15. The property manager insisted to western union rep that the money order was not cashed. We asked to be transfered to a manager and we were transfered to a phone number that just rang, no one answered.

I sent 1000 USD to my brother in Toronto ,canada on Feb 6th,2020. Western union guaranteed me that the receiver will be able to collect the money at the latest on Feb 14th,2020. As of today, Feb 24th, 2020, the money still didnt arrive to his account. I have contacted to western union customer care many times they said the money transferred to the receivers bank on Feb12th but as of today the receivers bank (TD) still tells that this money never received from western union to his account. Each time I call western union call center they tell me that they are escalating the issue to a higher department but still as they didnt resolve my issue they do not send me any answer via email or phone.
