First Time WU User

I am looking to make deposits on 5 dimes/Bookmaker using WU instead of my credit card.  Can I deposit money into my WU account using my CC online? 

No. You physically have to go to a western union location, get the name and country of the person you are sending the money to from customer service at the website and handle it that way. If they offer moneygram, the fees are cheaper unless your book offers to pay the fees if you deposit over a certain amount. Hope this helps.

Yes you can do it with wu online using cc

 

Which one is it? You guys said two different things lol

you can do a wu online with a cc, i have done numerous

That's what I thought.  You have to do it in person though for payouts right?

that is correct

I hear that it is easy to get flagged doing it online. Best to go to a location. Lot of supermarkets have mg or wu.

As long as you are reasonable in amounts and don't ever state what it is for, under no circumstances, then you should be fine either way! 

Guys have been flagged for this. But your probably right. Losing degens probably reloading $100 every other day.

Thanks for the help guys.  Why do you think I would get flagged if 5 dimes/Bookmaker accept it?

Only probably get flagged if too many transactions.

I was gonna make 2 $200 deposits and probably won't deposit for at least another month so I should be fine then.

just do a $400 deposit and you will be fine man,  no need to get all paranoid and stuff,  what will be will be.  Just nature of the beast!  I mean i am not trying to tell you what to do but no need in separating it.  $400 keeps you under the radar.

Yeah that's what I meant.  I was going to do deposits off $200 on Bookmaker and 5 dimes but yeah I will just do 1 deposit on WU.  How much are the fees usually?

Or is it better to use MG rather than WU? Sounds like WU is pretty strict and ask a lot of people questions about why and who they are sending the money too. 

It really doesn't matter,  if you are sending $200 you should get the fees reimbursed by the book.  Either or really doesn't matter.  i personally like western union better but either or.  The fees are cheaper with moneygram,  and western union depends on amount sent but is always more than moneygram.  Ok i thought you were sending 2 different $200 deposits to the same book but whatever you decide is cool bud and good luck!

Why do some people say never deposit online anyways? What's the difference? I've seen many places people post "Never deposit online you will get flagged!" I mean yeah if you do numerous deposits often and for high amounts I understand that but a couple deposits for a couple hundred dollars? Doesn't seem like anyone would get flagged for that.

i don't know buddy,  can't speak for them, only my experiences

How long you been depositing online for with WU? Sorry for all the questions lol thanks for the help though I appreciate it. 

a long time buddy and no problem asking questions,  how else are you going to find out.  Don't mind helping anybody at all.

You ever been questioned by them? I wanna do a couple deposits so I can have money on multiple sites but I prolly shouldn't do 2 deposits right after creating an account.  Maybe I will do 1 this week and another 1 in a week or two.

never have yet bud

Stay as far away as you can from Moneygram. They have a new compliance guy that must be related to that camel jockey US Attorney from New York City. He hates gambling and they flag all kinds of deposits and payouts with long names from foreign countries.

Western Union is the way to go. Keep the deposits and payouts under $1000 and you should have no problem. Use those check cashing places when you can because they deal in big amounts of cash all day and they don't even blink at anything under $1000. Moneygram is a joke and I don't even know how they're still in business.
