Philippine embassy issues warning for remitters to check the company they are dealing with. since juneof 2008 and to date, the embassy has been recieving complaints from Filipinos against AJ GLOBAL,a remittance agency based in London, for its repeated failure to deliver or forward sender money to their intended beneficiaries in the philippines.
Most of the complaints came from the agency's regular customers who availed of the "online bank to bank service" of the agency by depositing the money intended for remittance directly to the agency's bank account.
the embassy is making this announcement based on the written and verbal complaints of filipinos against AJ global. they alleged that they are victims of abuse of trust since the agency continues to maintain an account in barclays and recieve cash deposits for remittance despite the fact that they have failed to remit since june of 2008.
