Do the vendors know you used WU online when they asked you not to do so?

ps: the question is to anyone that can help
Thanks in advance.

Anyone?
Do the vendors know you used WU online?


My suggestion to online WU is to not do it. Every person that I personally know who's done it has hit a brick wall. Most responses I see with online is a call from WU asking more questions and cancled transactions. I go in and use a store a town over from me. Regardless though your own judgment is needed. I use all my correct info when sending in person. First time I ever did a WU it went wrong and if it wasn't my name and info on it I would have lost several hundred dollars. Just my honest opinion. Good luck. Smile

Thanks for answering Heart  but that's not my question.
I allways use all my correct info.

My only question is: Do the vendors know if the sender used WU online?

Compare on-line to in person... First off, like mentioned before, I use my real info cause I did have to retrieve a pmt once and if I had used bogus info, it would have been lost ...

Also on-line, they were hitting me up for appox 3 times what I pay in-person at the store ....

All in all, it's what YOU feel comfortable for YOU...

If the vendor actually requests that you NOT use the on-line way, they surely have a reason, so maybe they can tell if you did or not ...
I do not know that for a fact however ...

in this case it was just an advice. Wasn't a request.

I was using MG all the time with no problems. Now all of a sudden they want to freeze my transaction and have me call a special telephone number to continue my transaction. A person claiming to be a supervisor ask a whole bunch of dumb ass questions. Who are you sending money to? Are you related to this person? What are the funds for? It's so stupid. None of your business is the real answer to all of their questions. I use WU now and no problems so far. It's hard for me to get to a store w/ MG & WU so I have to go online. I'm clueless about Bitcoins. I guess it's time for me to learn about & get familiar with Bitcoins.

they´r all keeping it very "policed" on-line .
Bitcoins are a good alternative. Didn't use them cause i'd had to send ID to a bank in Panama. Then Didn't waste time on finding a better solution.

We have to understand their point of view also.
They'r not supposed to let guys that are running businesses use their service.

But i understand yourfeelings  Heart
