(The consumer indicated he/she DID NOT accept the response from the business.) I do not accept their response because I spoke with agent #***, [redacted] and # [redacted] through the ###-###-#### that was unable to locate my money order number or my current mailing addressOn today at 10:am I requested a supervisor/manager callback within the hour, it's 5:08pm and to date NO one has callbackI have left several messages for someone named [redacted] at ###-###-#### but he does not or will not return a callThis process is very frustratingThe only two numbers I have to contact Western Union are not good numbers I completely understand there is a process in everything but I feel as though I have been violated not once but twice I will never ever purchase another money order that associates with Western Union Due to all the issues because I was told on several occasions that my refund was in the mail, I would like for the refund to be sent overnight mail to me
