Got a call from Western Union the other day after making a deposit. Their compliance department wanted me to fax information regarding the transaction before they would approve. They wanted everything but a DNA sample regarding the transfer..(business purpose, relation to receiver, birthdate, birth place, etc). I told them to f_ck off and give me the money back (versus the real purpose which was to get a large money line wager in) I haven't done a western union in many months and the amount was under 3 dimes...so all you punters beware!
RPM,
No questions other than the usual were asked when I made the deposit. The new twist is this compliance department bullsh_t. They must have some algorithm where they look at the amount, where it is being sent, who it is being sent to and probably your past history. I think I'm screwed even if I try one for $500.

Patrick,
Never sent more than $2500 at one time and haven't used WU for six months until yesterday. At most I sent $2500 twice in one month before.
RPM,
Under a dime is not enough for me and it's too much of a pain in the ass to be running around doing multiple sends which I'm sure they would monitor anyway. Like Leona Helmsley said.."that's for the little people."

The problem comes in for people who want to move larger amounts of money...it's not a worry but a fact at this point. You will get stopped unless you want to make up some stories for Western Union's compliance department.<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>
