Thanks "Western Union bank " !

I used to send money to my home land since i have a house there to be taking care the expenses ( tel , electric....etc) Luckily i have my family to taking care the money distribution ( LOL) .

Normally I send money used my local bank her to my account there it's been done in almost 3 year, lately i feel that the service between my local bank her with my local bank there is not what I'm expected.

Every time I send a money , i paid the service ( of course ! ) it is normal but the ting that I don't like is The money arrived in My account always has big lack which is totally unacceptable.. I paid In crown/danish kroner and they will exchange to USD.
I can understand that there is differences money rcpt that depend on how much kurs/rate when it transaction to be done. But the problem is not different of the rate/kurs exchange but the total money rcpt before they change to Rupiah /IDR is lack from what I sent here...

Last September 2008 I sent a money about 750 US and when I checked according to my local bank there the money they rcpt is only 690 US , i really shocked to knew about this and i sent email complained to my local bank there , and rcpt info from them that "the connection bank " who deduct the money ! " ( it doesn't make sense) and they said they only take 5 US for the administration....and it took 10 days for the money i sent to be arrived there !

Yesterday , I tried to sent money again but with different way considered i got some advised from my friend in school who normal send money to their home land, they said try "Western union bank " . When i was living In Indonesia , I knew about Western union bank , but the only thing i heard is even though the transaction can do in a "minute" (almost in the same time from send and rcpt )but it will take a lot of money for the service ! BUT IT NOT TRUE !!!!

THE TRUTH IS " the fee " we have to pay is normal fee (like when we sent money through local bank to bank only depend on how much money , the bigger , the more fee need to pay ..but IT IS ABSOLUTELY FAIR ) and THE GOOD NEWS IS "RECEIVER" rcpt the money Full amount !!!, when you doing the transaction even though you paid using the local money but on the letter sending they exchange the money direction to "receiver money " so we know how much receiver will rcpt the money and absolutely without deduction...my sister only pay for stamp per transaction which is not even 1 US !!!

So , for you who want to send money to your home land don't HESITATE to used WESTERN UNION BANK...super..super great LOL
