How to Send Money Online | Western Union AR
Find answers to our customers' frequently asked questions about how to send money online from Argentina with Western Union.

That's all well and good, but the numbers (not suprisingly, considering inflation) are completely wrong. But there's a bigger problem. Different people from the same country have different limits, and different fees. Steve once posted some of his limits, and recently posted his new fees, and neither are anything like mine. I've tried to find answers online and from customer "service," but I've been unable to get any kind of explanation.How to Send Money Online | Western Union AR

i have it's a massive pain in the ass and they do charge you fees for withdrawing etc. IMO it's not worth the trouble.
Anyone used AirTm before? Just did a simulation on their platform and it looks like a similar (slightly lower) rate to WU also available for deposit into your local bank account in ARS...![]()

I have never had a problem with WU. And I use it in multiple countries. The Pago Facil office in Alcorta is very good, as is the newer one at Cervino 3919.That's all well and good, but the numbers (not suprisingly, considering inflation) are completely wrong.

There have been many posts from people in this thread with their limits and fees, and they seem to invariably vary (so to speak). However, some of these differences may be due to different source countries.
When WU works the way you want it to (or a close facsimile), it's great. When it doesn't, it can be extremely frustrating.
I have (almost) no doubt that if you contact customer service, they will read to you those wrong numbers from the page you posted.
I'm happy to hear that you've been lucky enough to never have had a problem with WU. I wish I could say the same for myself. I don't go to WU offices. I do everything bank to bank. I've had various problems with WU. Their customer service is almost completely useless and frequently rude, even at the highest level.I have never had a problem with WU.

...and it often bounces back up (sometimes more, sometimes less).

Could be, but I've had some very frustrating experiences with them. I never had to put in a claim for lost money. I can't even imagine how terrible that process would be.They are in a difficult business. I think they deal with more scams and nefarious transactions than any traditional financial institution. Has to be why you see rejected transactions and limits all over the place. Probably flagged transactions on the fraud department that customer service has no information on.
You can't get anywhere with customer service but I never had a situation where I was ever out the money.
