Western Union payment updates
Thursday, December 18, 2008
Do you use Western Union as your payment method? If so, we've just made a couple minor updates that we'd like to let you know about.
Expiration date extended
We've now extended the deadline to pick up your Western Union payments from 35 days to 60 days. If you haven't picked up your payment within 60 days of issuance, the payment will be credited back to your account and a payment hold will be placed on your account. You'll then see a notice in your account with more details on how to proceed.
Split payments
As you may know, Western Union has
specific payout limits
depending on location. In the past, if your payment amount exceeded the Western Union payout limit in your country, we'd send your payment by secured express delivery check instead. Unfortunately, this would also incur a delivery fee, so we're happy to let you know that this is now no longer the case.
Now, if your payment exceeds the maximum payment amount, we'll divide up the amounts but still send them via Western Union. For instance, if the payout limit in your country is $3,000 USD and your payment for the month is $5,000 USD, we'll send you two payments: one for the limit of $3,000 USD and another for the remainder of $2,000 USD. If you're sent multiple Western Union payments, you'll see multiple 'Payment issued' lines on your Payment history page, each with the corresponding MTCN associated with it. Depending on your local Western Union agent, you may need to
pick up
multiple payments on subsequent days. We recommend consulting your local Western Union agent for further details.
Payment by Western Union is currently available in a
limited number of countries
, but we're working on expanding the countries we support, and we'll keep you posted with any updates.
