I sent some money to an overseas friend and was told the money was refunded to me. I have sent money to this person before and have never had any problems. What is the issue now? Has this happened to anyone else?

it has happened to me also. I was told that they would not permit me to send money through Western Union anymore, despite the fact that I had send thousands of dollars over several years. They refused to tell me why they had made this decision, leaving me feeling like I was some sort of criminal. I recommend World Remit instead. You can send money directly to someone's bank account. SCREW WESTERN UNION!!!

Yes, I am partially supporting my son whilst he is living in Ireland and they banned him as a receiver and refused to give a reason why..I appealed against the ban and they then also banned me from using the service !!! They ignored any communication from me regarding this, and did not give a reason why. As a result I now use Moneygram , and am pleased that although Moneygram is not as convenient for my son, I am not paying commision to help support the self important clowns at western union !!!!

I have also had the same problem and made a complaint. They sent me a proforma reply that does not fit my situation. Three emails later and they are not replying. Soon I will be passing my complaint to the Financial Ombudsman. I am surprised that so few others do that. If they did then they might be more careful with their customers.

Does anyone know what the following error message from Western Union actually means? I am getting it using their online WU Pay. They told me it was a technical error but it happens quite frequently. I have sent them the money but I cannot complete the transfer. We cannot process your money transfer. T5665 We’re sorry, but there’s been a technical problem and we can’t complete your money transfer. Please try again later.

I sent money to my son in Canada from Canada. He was not able to pick it up as he has no valid government issued ID. Government won't renew anything. Money sent in October 2013. He has problems with government due to child support issues (long story). I would like to get my money back from Western Union who have not been helpful. How do I do it? Worried mother.

Since 2013! That's crazy! I would recommend going to a Financial Ombudsman. There's one for every country. They are an impartial third party who can deal with a claim on your behalf. They will request for you to speak with WU first though to resolve the issue. But obviously you have and the fact it's been so long should go in your favour to getting this resolved. I hope you've already managed to get your money back by now (sorry for the late post) but if not I would definitely harass WU for this to e returned to your account. If no one has claimed it after a certain amount of days then the money should be returned to you. Moving forward I would really recommend using PayPal. There may be a small fee of around $1 or so but it means you have control over your money and where it goes. Then this can go directly into your sons bank account. I hope this helps

Hi, just in case you've have no luck. If they have sent to the wrong country then this is something they obviously need to rectify as it wasn't a mistake made on your part. I would go through the Financial Ombudsman for your particular country who it was organised through. They'll be able to help you get your money back and you won't even have to deal with WU again, it will all go through them

Has Western Union Money Transfer shut services temporarily due to political problem in Ukraine? That's the answer I got when I went to the bank to receive a foreign transfer.
