Domestic (US) money transfer Incorrect/missing disclosures or info Arkansas
My dad lives in - and I live in -. A few weeks ago he sent money from Walmart through Money Gram, but before I could pick it up the next day he was hospitalized. I was told by the cashier at my local Walmart that I would not be able to pick up my money because the message she got on the system said that " the money must be picked up in the state designated by the sender. '' I said what do you mean? She said well there is no state listed here. So I called the Walmart where my dad sent it from and they informed me they could n't help me either, and they gave me the number to money gram. I have called money gram and they said '' It does have a state specified it is listed as -. '' But it 's our policy that we do n't allow one to receive money in the same state that is sent from. '' OK so that should be a no-brainer right? It was obviously a mistake on the cashiers part - no luck. They say my dad has to personally go back to the Walmart where he sent it and fix it. HE IS IN THE HOSPITAL AND CAN NOT BREATHE on his own, so that is not possible!! I emailed a complaint to MoneyGram and in their reply they tell me that HE must CALL an - number they provided on the email. What?? I could have ANY MALE caller to do so if that is so true. Sounds to me like this is their way to make money. Wow.
