Western Union is WAY TOO EXPENSIVE!

[KingOfPain]

I made a small transfer of only $120 and I ended up paying $142! What a rip off!!!! Do they always charge 20% or does it get cheaper with larger orders. Cause if not there is no way i would make an transfer of $1000 and pay $200 to those pricks! There has to be another way to do business!!!! Maybe get some guys to take money oreders to their PO Boxes? anything is better than giving these cocksuckers my money....

If your guy takes it, moneygram is cheaper than wu.

Note: WU offers a "Price it" calculator on the home page (http://www.westernunion.com/homePage.asp) where you can plan the rate.

Fees.

In consideration for the use of the Service, you agree to pay to Western Union a fee for each Money Transfer initiated by you at the applicable rate then in effect (the "transfer fee"). The applicable transfer fee for your transaction will be provided to you prior to your final authorization of the transaction, in addition to any applicable fees for additional services.

Yes WU sucks, They stick it to you everytime and luckily my source now takes other forms of payment.

 

[PURE EXTRACT]

Yeah I've used it twice so far...I thought it was 15% of total??

 

[Barnacle]

I agree entirely, fricking highway robbery!

When you go to a store do you pay the same price you see on
a pricetag? WU fees are just a way to tax black market.You forgot
that death and taxes are unavoidable.

Yea its a rip off.. I paid $100 to wire $2000 from Canada to Europe.

 

[rebeljuice]

it would cost about the same if you did direct bank account transfer .only things like paypal cost less. but that's the price of freedom.

 

[Busterball]

Why don't u just OVERNIGHT the money using Fed Ex or UPS???
Much cheaper. It only takes a 1-3days.... If u plan the right way, it should be fine. Just my thoughts. I use both, Mail and WU?

 

[Deepsquat]

some people only accept payment Via wire...as fo0r Western Union I recently sent 100$ to Michigan ...cost me $20 sent 268$ the other day to India Via Money grahm cost me $20 !

i sent a grand wu this summer and it cost me about 60USD i think. the other day i sent like 100USd and it cost me 15USD. too bad we have to send money why dont our sources give us the gear for free or take payment in the form of blowjobs from our girlfriends?

 

[Balistic]

I agree

Western Union BLOWS! I'm gonna mail that shit... if you hide it well and pack your cash discreetly I don't see why it won't make it.
