Best VCC to send funds via western union
 

Need to send funds to via western union, I know the person im sending the funds too, but would like my personal details to stay personal and private. I know that when a person picks up cash at their western union, they see the senders name and address of the sender. With WN the debit card name has to be the same name that is registered on the account. Thats why im looking for a VCC to use on WN. Please advise.

You may want to go to its site,you may be able to use bitcoin??

Re: Best VCC to send funds via western union
 

Certainly not with WU, but bitcoin is probably the only way you're going to be able to send a semi-anonymous payment.

I didn't even know you could use a card with WU. Before I got banned I would pay cash every time. Have you considered using cash?

Either way WU will want your ID, so that's going to be an obstacle regardless.

What is WN?

sorry,no bitcoin,but if you are in USA and sending to USA,it is credit/debit card and bank transfer

if you are sending to overseas,you have to go to site and find out,eg Mexico is bank tansfer only

if you are in UK,you have t o register with WU first and then find the country you want to send money to,it will tell you how you can pay.
But I dont think you can avoid giving your name,the guy who goes to pick up the money would have to show his ID and the WU number.

where is your recipient?
if he is in UK,you may not be able to use any card,like in USA,we have to use bank account.,only when we sent money overseas ,then we can use debit,credit and bank account

Im in UK, sending to Phillipines, I have a WU account already. I send funds via my debit card in most cases, but in this case I want abit more privacy about my details

Re: Best VCC to send funds via western union
 

Is this even possible with WU?

Re: Best VCC to send funds via western union
 

then you can send cash !!!!!!!!!!!!

Re: Best VCC to send funds via western union
 

I don't think there's any way of getting around being ID'd by WU when you send money.

But then again I always did it in person and never tried online/app WU.

Re: Best VCC to send funds via western union
 

If a sender hides his ID,the recipient may not know who sent him money?
I know a foreign site which only accept WU from US buyers,WU limits the number of payments the recipient can receive,so they have to keep changing the name of the recipient.
It is a site which sells prescription drug cheap ! and it gets many orders from US buyers.

Those are scam sites.

Re: Best VCC to send funds via western union
 

If sending cash, they want ID, real ID. If sending using VCC you dont have to put your real name. I think privacy of your details should be a 100% human right . You dont know who your dealing with, even if you think you know the person well. My ultimate question is what VCC would work with WU, some companies dont recognize certain VCC's, I think it has to be a AWS VCC

I have a question on $10 transaction fee.
I used my JPM credit card twice to send money overseas via WU,I just got my JPM statement ,and it charges me $10 transaction fee and interest charge for cash advance?
It is a VISA card issued by JPM,I know I have to pay WU ,but $10 transaction fee from JPM and it is not considered a charge but a cash advance?
Is any of you have the same problem?

Re: Best VCC to send funds via western union
 

if you dont know who you are dealing with,then why are you dealing with him?
In the example I gave,this website is selling prescription drug cheap and been getting many WU payments,it needs to know the name of the buyer so they wont send the wrong drug!of course there is this WU number,it is just a string of numbers,having a name helps.
There is also postal order,you need to enter the name of the recipient,but not sure your name is required or you can put any name,all the post office care about is (1) is this authentic postal order (2) recipient must show proper Id.
but then you will have to mail the postal order yourself.

try different VCC on WU site,it will let you know
