Western union payments

OK: BASED ON PAST HISTORY, JUST KNOW THIS IS NOT WHEREIN ONE ANSWERS ANY PAYMENT QUESTIONS ON HOW TO DO IT IN OPEN. DON'T MENTION IT. USE PM.

RITE BEFORE PLACES GO DOWN FOREVER OR A YEAR OR SO, THEIR MONETARY SYSTEM HAS BEEN SCREWED UP ROYALLY.

Now this is not at you. but i know a few will come on late at nite and be helpful hannahs. Answer questions with specificity.

Let us be beyond careful. General talk only. But really, keep money subjects in PMs. With a japanese pharmacy, within two weeks of payment method mentioned, payment method went down. Within a month or two, whole darn pharmacy went down.

and way too many are hanging out here. trying to hack our sources. again.

Save the sources and some lives. Shhhhhhh.

So most WU places won't require an ID to order magazines if you're there in person and pay cash?

i have found this to be true.

Call them on the phone, though and they'll intimidate you about having your ID good & ready before coming in. That's what happened to me a few years ago, at least.

I don't think if a company accepts WU only it makes it a scam website. The source I used for years only accepted WU or MG and they sent every time!

Almost all of my sources since 2006 (the year I received my Honorable Discharge from the USAF) have been this way, too. *crosses fingers*

BTW... 

The website actually asked me for my ID info today. That really caught me off guard. Stop changing sh!t, WU. Everything is fine as is.

You can't use your debit card on the site, fishfarmer? The fee is about $7, too.

I've been in the system forever myself and they still popped me with the illustrious ID Q&A.

... Could be because of what's going on in the world right now, too, because the site also declined my transfer and told me to call my bank to approve it due to the whole "I may not have sufficient funds in my account/transfer amount is too high/suspicious activity" thing.  I called my account and verified it was me to the lady and everything went through successfully... only to get another phone call from my bank a few hours later to verify it was me yet a-f*cking-gain. YEESH!!

Correct, no Debit card can be used online, but can be used at a store. Yes they require some ID info, but at the store it is just your phone # if you are in system.

What I was trying to say is that YES. You CAN use your debit card on their site and the fee is about the same as going in person. I've been doing it for as long as I can remember.

The edited paragraph of my post was extra information explaining the hoops I had to jump through this time around when I used my debit card online.

Wu has emailed me numerous times and the last I used them was months ago. Very touch and go..especially since new numb

It’s great for the awesome rewards points though!!!!! So many points lol

I usually pay via my web app account. I was surprised that it asked me for all the ID information for the first time. I did it but in retrospect wished I hadn’t. WU now has a lot of my private information ?

[Beeker25]

Ice nailed it. There is nothing left to be said!! I’ve read the rules dozens of times that is why I only post here and there!

I lost a complete subscription company when a worker lied to me, sent me to another store claiming the refund was too high! I left and they processed and took it all. It’s always a new way or method to look out for. I got to the store and they looked at me as the one trying to get over. I was furious.
