New mandate re money transfers?

[SinPulgas]

Hopefully not a bad omen but I can't log on or call to Western Union this afternoon. Anyone else having problems?

I just logged in, Johnny.

Thanks for that but I can't. Something bizarre about no permission "on this server".

Finally sussed it out. A problem between the WU Argentina site and USA site. Anybody else could have figured it out in minutes!

I was asked to reverify my identity this morning when setting up a cash pickup transfer from USA.

It was the first time with WU since I set up my account.

Thanks for the report. It looks like things are tightening up.

I can't find anyone else on other BA forums talking about running into new issues with WU transfers. Has anyone recently transferred from a US bank account to an Arg bank account without issue? I usually send it to my wife here.
