forget what i asked in my previous post. just went to the site & found the following:

"Western Union strictly prohibits the use of its Internet service to directly or indirectly fund Internet gambling and/or illegal activities."

they don't KNOW you're funding an internet gambling account because you're going to be sending the money to a 'person', not a company.

i can't imagine this source of sending funds ever dying.

I only use Western Union to fund books. The books pay for the transaction cost if you send more than a certain amount. Usually $250 - $300.

If you are in Canada .. just call them up and say you were charged $66 by WU for the transaction. Most often .. the clerks dont bother checking your address and credit you with $66 US :D

how about that freebie .. ;)

WU .. not much trail .. you r sending to a person not an organization ..

banks dont come into the picture ..

best way in my opinon .. As Jack Said .. U cannot stop This

Cheers !!!

yep...Western Union the way to go :cool:

and for us Canadians..........sometimes they forget the exchange rate....send 100 Canadian....get 100 US....great deal :eek: :eek:

In fact........I never use anything except Western Union....but yes...it does depend on the book :confused: Some have more troubles then others............:nono:

I only use WU too. Like Jack said, you are sending the money to an individual, so how do they know it is a book. The only problem I have ever had was when I used the online service, it took about a day to get the money into my account. Whenever I use the option at the grocery store, it takes about 10 minutes after you call them and give them your 10 digit number.

As mentioned, the book will give you a person's name and address. Western Union has no idea where it is going. I have used it without problem. Very fast and any legitimate book will refund the WU cost if you open with a specific amount of money.
