I Tried Xoom Today

[Ceviche]

In second attempt, the xoom transaction went through and I was told " money is ready to be picked up".

Guys, which is a good place to pick up the money.

I am in Palermo. This is my first attempt with xoom.

thanks for your post, What Kiosko? Where is it located? Thanks

Across from the bus station in La Plata, maybe calle 41.

Wait...what?????

So anyone in Palermo who uses Xoom needs to go to La Plata to withdraw?

I was responding to the question of where/which kiosk did I use.
If you go to this page you'll see a pull down menu of cash pickup locations.

I live in Las Cañitas and use Xoom regularly. I always have to go to the "More Money Transfers" location at Libertad 1057 (just off of Av. Santa Fe). It's a pain, but really easy and worth it.

Does it only work with us-accounts/us-credit-cards?

Anyone knows if the locations open on Saturday?

Hola my USA CC was not taken by XOOM??.
When I first registerd with Xoom, before the Blue Rate, I stated as my residence Argentina and my current address BA. Later on I added in Xoom an address and phone number in Miami. My US credit card has a billing address in Buenos Aires.
HELP!

Libertad location is open M-F from 8-6.

When I was there yesterday at the end of the day and my transfer did not confirm in time, the guy gave me this address and said it was open on Saturday from 9:00-20:00:

Boulogne Sur Mer 442

May work, may not. I'll follow up if I give it a shot.

Based upon my failed attempts to use a US issued card with a foreign address, I also can confirm that the credit card must have a US address linked to it. Suggest you contact your card issuer and change address to a US contact.
