YimSiam Posted March 21, 2015 Report Share Posted March 21, 2015 Does Western Union need to verify the "Miss" or "Mr." status on the ID card when confirming the name? I could see that as one area of potential conflict in some cases... Of course, a lesser woman than this Ms. Pam might try the oft-effective cash-extractive operational strategy of "WU not give! Tingtong too mutt -- send again you bank me okay mai?" YimSiam Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jitagawn Posted March 21, 2015 Report Share Posted March 21, 2015 No written documentation necessary...except her Thai ID. Such are the un expected difficulties of international "ding dong romant." Upon your next visitation do update us on her dental situation Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted March 21, 2015 Report Share Posted March 21, 2015 " You don't even have to request it and it started showing up - very unexpectedly I can say. " Yes ... If the sender enters a mobile number on the form, a confirmation sms will be sent automatcally once the receiver has picked up the money. A relatively new feature as you correctly point out ......

buffalo_bill Posted March 21, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 21, 2015 Gentlemen , during the late hours of this Saturday afternoon I could transmit specified data covering all names involved plus amount sent to more than lovely Pam who in exchange wishes to express her gratitude to this excellent forum ; I have taken the liberty to mention the joint efforts of numerous gentlemen of unknown coordinates . I shall now closely monitor the whereebouts of the relevant monies to avoid abuse as for example seeing them disappear in the Korat forests where Pam´s home territory is . The requested update on the dental developments is in order , watch this board around end of April when I shall be available for inspection . Thank you again . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Belem Posted March 22, 2015 Report Share Posted March 22, 2015 Western Union will also allow you to transfer money into the recipient's bank account. They have an app for smart phone which is really easy. And the recipient can check it on their Bangkok bank app or whatever bank they have.

Thank you for considering the possibility of potential exploitation but regarding the loveliest of all Pams I would completely exclude such strategy . She loves me and did further confirm in the meantime that Wessenunio did pay . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

buffalo_bill Posted March 26, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 26, 2015 I am hereby finally praising the Western Union Company to the highest possible degree ; not only are their services fast , efficient and worth the fees but as soon as the targeted person did withdraw the funds from their outlet they send an email to the generous payer . It was only then that I received lovely Pam's real name in writing which I very much appreciate . In particular spelling her family name requires mental storage capacity above average level .

She loves me and did further confirm in the meantime that Wessenunio did pay . I only suggest this nefarious and disappointing possibility because I have encountered similar, only realizing after I succumbed. This was pre-notification days, I suppose. Or rather - I was too blind, and too lonely in the moment, to implement safeguards appropriate to the situation... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
