Having to call Western Union?

[Jim Anchower]

I'm trying to deposit money through Western Union on the newest leg of
my endless quest to get money into an online poker account and they
want me to call their chump asses after I gave them all the info and
everything should be taken care of. Has this happened to anyone else?
I don't want to call their punk asses. What if they ask why I am
sending money to some guy in Ecuador I'm not sure how to respond to
that. Why do I even need to call them? Why must they hear my voice?
They have all the info. Bastards! I read that other people never had
to call them, is it because I lied about my birthday?

You can't fund a gambling transaction with your credit card. Call
them and that's what they'll tell you. Get cash and make the transfer
in person.

Ecuador? He he..... Who the fuck ever sent anything to Ecuador? Christ. Oh
well....

I guess I didn't make it clear previously. Like Gary said -- you actually
have to take "cash' to a WU office \ storefront (they're
every_freaking_where) and give it to them. No credit cards means no website.
They won't ask why. If they do just mention some third cousin on sabbatical
or missionary work for the Mormons or something. Jezzz.....Ecuador :-)
That's rich..........rj

The people that never had to call probably made the transaction in person.

I made a Western Union deposit online, and had to make the call, but they
didn't ask me what the money was for.
