Complaint: ***
I am rejecting this response because I was just at a *** Bank branch yesterday and I spoke with *** ***, one of the Personal Banking Reps, who looked into my account and verified that from the period Oct24, to Jan26, 2016, there was only payment reversal transaction in the amount of $credited to my checking account, and that was on Nov20, I am willing to provide both *** and TD Bank statements to prove thisWhat proof does WU have? When I made the Pay Bill transaction to WU Pay on Nov13th thru *** Bank, Western Union insisted they never got the payment at all even almost a week after that transaction went throughAnd that's why *** Bank offered to reverse the paymentWhen I made the second payment through TD Bank which went through on Nov24th, WU still claimed they never received any payments even after they cancelled my money transfer transaction on Nov27thSo, how can WU make a payment reversal when they claim they never received any payments at all? And since the second payment was done through TD Bank, how could WU claim to return payment to *** Bank when these are entirely different transactions and different banking institutions? Also, all those times that I had been following up and asking whatever happened to the money, WU can only come up with an explanation now? Wouldn't professional courtesy dictate that you owe it to your customers to inform them if and when any transaction of this sort is done especially since it's the customer's money they're dealing withThe technical glitch that supposedly happened, that excuse had been used for too long nowI was told it started around Nov12thYou're telling me that went on for a month without anyone in that huge corporation ever noticing or doing anything to make it right?
Sincerely,
*** ***
