Hi andypaul,
I am dealing directly with Western Union and reminding them frequently on the urgency of this issue.
I am not sending any more money to my GF until this issue is resolved.
I feel it is prudent to ascertain the facts and find out the outcome first.
WU seem to be taking the whole thing seriously.
Of course what I am waiting for is a full explanation from WU.
Then I will be able to move on.
Of course sending any more money via WU depends on their verdict.
It looks like xoom is the way to go....
