I sent money using Western Union to my stepson in -. ( My tracking number ( - ) is : - Transaction Date : - -, 2015 - ET ) The money was a direct transfer from my bank account to my stepsons bank at -. After calling Western Union on - the lied an told me that my bank will not release the funds for 5 days but in fact the money was Debited on - and posted on -/-My stepson is not able to get the money even after calling western union as instructed when I did the transfer. They told him that I needed to call western union before he could get the money. When I called thats when the lied about my bank holding the money for 5 days. This is clearly a kiting scheme by Western union to hold all money transfer funds so they can make more money using customers xash
