Western Union Transfer Screw-Up

Also, I know that if we start trying to get to the bottom of the problem on the phone, she will start to cry, and that makes me feel bad.
This is a two-way street: I don't fully understand her on the phone and she doesn't fully understand my English.

I just want this bloody thing to end, yet the stakes (marriage, spousal visa and bringing her to UK) are too high for me to look too far into the future until I know what the real problem was. She has already said it was her fault a month later, but the simple fact was that the uncle received the money three days after I sent it and she said he told her he didn't receive it because of the number
I still smell a rat and the rat that I smell is probably the rat that I don't want to smell The trouble is two people were involved there and I still don't know which one or both was the problem.

They both have phones 24/7 so I am bemused.

I would put everything on hold untill she regains your trust.

If she has problems paying the texts text over a load code so as not to put her out of pocket.

No way can you let it stay like this. If a Girlfriend in the UK and her uncle misled you about a sum of money either the same or a slighty greater figure you simply would not stand for it.
A mate would be seriously blanked.

Your taking a risk even just keeping in contact as from my distant viewpoint you want to be convinced everything is ok which you might belive if you stay chatting.

I personally would do one at least for a serious period of time, your taking a huge risk of getting sucked in. I don't think either is a professional scammer. But like any kid learns if they can get away with something once....
