On 02/19 I used western union services to send money to Brazil. Because it was an emergency, I paid an extra fee for what the call "money in minutes", which was suppose to make the funds available in about "15 minutes". Big joke! It took 24h for the record to show up in the bank back there in Brazil. Essentially you are paying for a service that can't be delivered. Only today, 02/23/10, the money was cleared in Brazil. Can you imagine how much money these thieves have stolen from people over the years? It's unbelievable. Because the transaction could only be completed today, I called up Western union to demand the extra money that I've paid for the transfer back. The lady took about 5 minutes to research for a reason why the service was paid for but not delivered. Then she hung up on me. Pathetic. No more!
