There's always got to a first time to try.
It looks well worth one too.
Just try for a smallish amount and see how it works out overall.

Everyone has their own loyalty.
But in these times of 'hard-nose' business economics you would be wise to satisfy yourself that both the exchange rate and the charges/fees give you a comfortable feeling.

Also get a feeling for how customer-centric they are. Sometimes worth paying for a simple, pleasant, trouble-free and efficient service.

You may well need to satisfy their anti money-laundering procedures so don't leave it until an emergency crops up.

Then let me have your review:D

Had never heard of this company until I read it on here so had a quick look at them , I've just sent a little load to my wifes mobile just to see if it works , compared to the fees western union charge for sending money this worldremit looks so much better . I must have gave western union 100s of pounds over the last few years . This company could have safes me a few quid

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year Everyone :)
I've seen this World Remit add on a filipino newspaper that i picked from pinoy shop, and thought to give it a go, i just sent a little amount to my sister over christmas and she got it with no hassle from M Lhuillier. World Remit messaged me on phone about the money been picked up as well. Will definitely use them in the future.

Thanks for the info LeeRose :xxgrinning--00xx3:
Much appreciated.

Some folks have reported issues with a couple of 'agents' being very pedantic about ID and correct names, but I guess that's more a local issue confined to personal pick-up.
Just need to be careful with ID and names to avoid delays.

Your Welcome Terpe,
yeah i think you'll just need to make sure that u have the correct ID and name to avoid delays of pick up..
I've been using western union but their charge is a bit high so i switched to moneygram but recently found out about world remit which doesn't seem to charge much with the amount you send and i can do it online as well which is much easy.

My first transaction with them is flawless, but I had a little problem on my second attempt wherein I accidentally selected Cebuana Lhuillier as the collecting agent. They are very keen with the details, especially the name of the recipient. Anyway, it got resolved after I contacted their support.

I still prefer using a prepaid debit card in sending money to family in Pinas, it's hassle-free and very safe.
