International money transfer Money was not available when promised Money was not available when promised Florida

I attempted Western Union money transfer to another country ( - ) using the service they call " WU Pay. '' This is an on-line billpay type transaction which Western Union advertises as allowing for funds to be obtained by receiving party in about 2 days. My account was debited on -/-/15 and as of -/-/15, my father was unable to obtain the funds. Multiple phone calls to Western Union were made with representatives assuring me that it had been cleared and the funds were available but he could not obtain the funds. On other occasions, I was told that there had been a hold on funds which was subsequently cleared but the recipient was still unable to receive the funds. I attempted to speak to supervisors but was told they were unavailable. My money is still being held by Western Union although they state they will refund it " after 5 business days. ''
