MoneyGram Money Transfers Complaint

International money transfer Money was not available when promised

MoneyGram Money transfers department,

International money transfer Money was not available when promised Texas

Out of necessity I used Money Gram money transfer service to send money international, I pay the fee service required to send money with the promise that will only take 5-15 minutes to be available for the recipient to claimed. It has been more than 10 days and my money does not reflect as being deposit. For the last two weeks I have contact MoneyGram to find out the status of my transfer, which every time I have contact I have been informed that my money is ready and available to be claim, when my recipient tries to claim the money it does not appear available. I have asked MoneyGram for a clear answer, however MoneyGram has not been able to provide me with a clear response as to where my money is or what happened. I requested for my money to be reimburse immediately, I was informed today that it will take 10 days in order for me to get my money back, which is something that does not reflect in their policy. I am a hard working individual, and if used the system is out of necessity, I do not want others to go to the same struggle I am going through. It is not acceptable for MoneyGram to lied about their service, it has cause many troubles with this issue.
