Banned from Moneygram

Moneygram banned me years ago. The last straw was when they flagged a deposit I was trying to make and I had to talk to their compliance department. The lady asked me if I knew the person and I told her it was my cousin. She then told me I had 35 relatives in three different countries and that looked suspicious. I told her I came from a large family. She said I would have to fill out some paperwork and send it into them if I wanted to use Moneygram again. I politely declined and she sent the money back to me so I picked it up and that was it.

When they ban you does it also apply to recieving money?

I'm wondering this same thing, when Moneygram bans you does it also including receiving money?

This is all getting to be such a fucking pain in the ass. What fucking business is it of Moneygram if we want to send money to someone in another country? Why is the burden on us to prove if how well we know ther person? They're probably getting heat from the government on this stupid-ass anti gambling and Home Land Security laws that don't accomplish a god damn thing. All this shit is seriously making me consider moving to Canada, which is an even more buearocratic and inefficient country than ours, but at least they don't interrogate and criminalize you for betting on a football game or sending $200 to some asshole in El Salvador.

Better ask your book if you can over night a money order or something. That or a cashiers check.

I use a fake address and phone number to send money all the time.. they never ask for identification.

They only ask for ID if I receive money.

Well if you live in the US time to move to Nevada. If you're the quiet type take it to Reno, flamboyant types there's VIVA LAS VEGAS!

maybe more books will start to use xoom for deposit only. xoom just doesn't give a shit as they don't send money to the states, but they'll take money from the states.

Can you elaborate on Xoom for us kool breeze.....

xoom its on all the pirated feeds as an advertisement when i watch soccer on saturday. It's just like WU and MG. ALthough they don't send money here and dont deal with american bank, but you can send money from here using xoom no problem. Not many books use it though as theres no way to send to the states.

also when i say its an ad, i mean its an ad on the actual channel during the sporting event, its even on some of the sidewalls and not a pop up ad.

lol, its happen to me too. I use money gram last week and they told me to call the Customer service. I buy it online. I call them they ask me does I use it to gamble and I say yes, she told me the transfer have been banned. Then I go to the store to buy money gram again, but it work. I'm suppressing they didn't ban me from Money gram.

what excuse do you use if you are receiving money from a guy from costa rica?

I've never had a moneygram or western union service ask me why I'm receiving the money. Honestly they could care less about money coming in the country they're more worried about the money going out of it.

All related to supposed terrorist funding, they claim, it's  pure bullshit they know perfectlly well what the purpose of these deposits are.Creativity is on the wain in the industry book gives me the same names from 4 years ago but I scramble the selling names and addresses and even though I use the same supermarket in a small town where they know me and know the name isn't right they still send it an advantage of living in the south it's not polite to ask too many questions...I have also gotten calls and letters from WU  asking for explanations which I have ignored and told them it's none of their fucking business and then started sending using aliases with no problem.

I have not had any issues rec' money off moneygram. I go to the clerk at walmart and give them info. They do it all through the computer. The max with MG is 800 at my book. When depositing, I use a prepaid card and load it through MG.

My preplanned excuse if I ever get asked is to say. I used to work with one of the guys he moved back home and I loaned him the money to get there and now hes paying me back.
