Western Union is constantly crashing or going offline. This happens every other week at different Publix. I've tried at 3 different Publix for the last 3 days and at all 3 W.U. kicked them off with the message please try again.
Western Union is garbage

System down

I’ve been waiting a week to get refunded my transaction. Been on hold for hours trying to speak to someone but no one picks up . Got in touch with a regular rep on the phone but they couldn’t refund my transaction. I’m going to the cops to report them stealing my money.

I was supposed to get 35 today around 12 and still have not received it. The company that sent it put it on my prepaid WU card. It says approved on their end but still nothing.

refused my card after bank approved it with no explanation. Told me to use another card which I tried to do and the website froze. I rang them for assistance and was told I can't make any transfer without removing all cookies from my computer first as the website requires a lot of processing space - this seemed bizarre. I tried this and the website still froze and also wiped off parts of my card details. I rang them again and was given no explanation except it will take at least 3 days to get back to me. I have never used western union before and will not use again - awful!!!

I have been unable to send money for the past 2 days. I have been requested to contact WU by phone for additional info required to process the transfer but after entering all required data I get a robot saying that WU is experiencing an unplanned emergency and to call back in 15 minutes. I have called back more than 8 times with no change.
