Western union payments

[Bubba Gamps]

I tried sending money via Western Union through one of their kiosk locations near me.   They took my money and processed the transfer.  Several days later, I received notification that the funds were not sent and a refund was being issued.  At that time, I had only sent funds via Western Union only 3 times and it wasn't a lot of money.  I had to call WU to obtain a new MTCN number so I could pick up my refund.  They told me the funds could not be sent to certain countries because of "security issues" and advised me to reduce the amount being sent and try again, but they couldn't tell me how much I could sent.  They were very vague about the specific reasons why the funds could not be sent.  I had sent funds to that country one time previously.  I ended up sending the money to the Vendor via bitcoin.
