Complaint: [redacted]
I am rejecting this response because:I spoke to a representative of western union on september 17, 2016 and they said they would send me a refund in 2 weeks and that was over two months ago and I didnt receive no correspondance from them until I contacted the Revdex.com and now they are stalling again in hopes I forget and let it slide. this is a very unscrupulous way of conducting business. Western Union should be held fully accountable for undesireable conduct and also the undesireable of their representatives.
Sincerely,
[redacted]
