Forewarning: It takes as long as setting up a paypal if not longer

Paypal doesn't take long to set up

WU takes a bit more time doesn't it? I feel like paypal was faster when I got it.

You go to a grocery store, fill out a form and you're done, it doesn't take any time.

It's a bit more difficult if you're not from the U.S, though.

I've seen all standards for every location in the world. So unless they are dicks, it should be straight forward. Maybe a line-up would make it take a little longer?

If I buy with WU I do it online...it was pretty easy once I had everything entered.

When I pick it up I go to the store and pick it up.
It's usually pretty fast, unless there is a line or they need to find a register that has enough money in it.

I had some problems with verification this evening, using it online.

Also, unfortunately for me, my nearest agent is over two hours away, from what I know. It's also located in quite a dodgy place, in an area that I don't know very well.

Another alternative to WU is Walmart Money Transfer for those who have close access to a Walmart (I don't, so it's out for me, but I can send money that way too)

There's no verification set up needed, just enter credit card and residence information and good to go.

What are the fees like for the walmart thing?
