This is a wierd company. I had sent an amount to my account in india. First time i did that no problem- transferred instantly. Next month when i again tried, my god - horrible experience. They stopped the transfer for god knows what reason. No email or message from WU for error or request for additional documents. I had to contact them myself multiple times to ask why the transfer has been put on hold. Later on they send an email that they need additional documents. This is amazing- first time they had no issues but second time suddenly they realise they need docs. I had to urgently send documents and this has caused grave problems to me. Probably will avoid using WU in future.

Very poor support
CY YM
I usually do not write such reviews but am writing this to express my disappointment and for the attention of other users. Recently I tried to transfer fund to Japan from overseas through WU, but both transactions were rejected and never happened. Each time, I enquired the WU customer service and tried to figure out the reason of failure and solution, but my queries were never directly answered and I was given no explanation for anything. For this meaningless communication I wasted about a month and gave up using this app in the end. To be honest, I wanted to use this app because WU offered better rate than others, so i even contacted and involved the recipient bank at Japan side to support me from their side. Indeed, when I requested transfer through WU, the recipient bank tried their best to reach out to WU to follow-up on the transactions. However, they were never responded from WU side and instead they saw the transaction unilaterally canceled by WU without any explanation or comment given. I do not know if other users would face similar issues (I don't even know what the issue was because it was never explained), but I do not recommend others to use this service as I felt complete luck of support and luck of respect to customers. I hope this comment helps.

Problem in transfer money and login issue
Ashish Tamu
I tried to transfer money to Nepal on 11 June through this WU app, the amount was debited from my bank account immediately, but still now no money was credited to receiver accounts., when I called the help line centre they said the transaction has still not yet completed 3 business days, tomorrow the amount will be credited to beneficiary account. Today it’s June 15 again I tried to call but help Line is busy and Money was not yet transferred. Another problem is sometimes apps doesn’t open or accepts the keeps telling me that the login error, so I had to change every time !!! As you have requested to send my details in your mentioned email. I send an email but nobody replied or Update me about this solution of this problem.

Unreliable App - Trust the bad reviews
Ckc30
I should have trusted the bad reviews about this app and I could have avoided being victimized. I have tried to use this app for the first time on 26 Nov and guess what.. the transaction I have made was successfully done and just to find out that after 10 days that my transaction was cancelled. No details or whatsoever even the customer service I have spoken to have no idea why it was cancelled. Emailed both the Fardan exchange and Western Union customer service and have not received any update when will I received my money back which was deducted successfully from my account. It’s scary to think that the money you’ve sent goes missing without any information. 1-3 days promised to the users of this app is a lie and should be fixed. Stop wasting people time if you can’t provide a good service. Here hoping I will get my money back!!!! 0 star for this app!
