One of the advantage of using Western Union online for transferring money is that not only you get a e-mail with the MTCN number when you send the money, but when the money is get by the receiver, you get an e-mail (got it at 3h08, just after the receiver got the money) giving the detail (Relever Notification e-mail) giving the exchange rate used and who get the money... and you get more details on your online transaction report.
Other advantage (and not the last one), you can do it from your best rocking chair near the fireplace at home while it's raining hard outside...
I'm not using it often now as bank transfer rate is better (it's just in case of emergency). My Wife has a PNB Europe account (in Pesos, based in the Philippines) so we transfer from her French Bank account to her PNB account thru PNB Europe (2 days for French bank transfer and 1 day for PNB ) and then transfert to her Mother's account. But of course it’s do not apply to Aposhark (yet!).
I wish he can sort out what happen really (sorry but I'm not trusting this Uncle...) and determine who is the liar!
