NCC1701A Posted October 9, 2018 Share Posted October 9, 2018 you should have said Thai person download the WU app and see how far you get with the process. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skeptic7 Posted October 11, 2018 Share Posted October 11, 2018 WU would be LAST choice. Not sure if Transferwise is an option, but Dee Money Thailand certainly is... https://www.dee.money/en/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Monday I used Western Union to transfer £5000 to my Thai bank. Using my UK debit card, the cash was in my Thai A/C on Tuesday. The charge? A BIG FAT ZERO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In my experience WU is the most expensive, difficult, intrusive, inconvenient and slow method. Of course, may have improved since it was about the only service readily available. Last time I used WU was 7 years ago and since then more inexpensive, convenient and user friendly options available. Transferwise & World Remit are just 2 that immediately come to mind. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
natway09 Posted October 11, 2018 Share Posted October 11, 2018 The short answer is yes. As to maximum amounts drop by an office & ask. I like their system for claiming at the other end which is often for me peace of mind & they are always very friendly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And that was for sure a lot considering that amount. I also doubt there was no charge, never saw (beside during a promotion) that you can send money "for free" with them. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJ54 Posted October 14, 2018 Share Posted October 14, 2018 WU has a bad experience. Online sent WU from my ATM or US bank account don’t recall which. I was in Thailand. Money left source to WU. Waited the estimated delivery from WU and followed up. A week later not sent. Finally I was told the money would be reversed and put back in my account. The reason they didn’t send was that I wasn’t physically in US. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
