My dad recently tried sending money to Nigeria and the W.U. person here in the U.S. said that they do not send money to Nigeria.
Have others heard this?
Merry Christmas. |

Somehow, I doubt it. But it would be a definite improvement. |

Yes, please if you have some official documentation on this, let us know.
Maybe it's just a temporary thing in his office? |

Must be a local office thing.
Was just having a look at the Aus site of WU and can definitely send to Nigeria. Can specify Aus dollars or Nigerian Naira. |

I was looking at western union's web site yesterday and there was no mention of a new policy. If it is it's stupid or at least a stupid way of handling the situation. Not everyone in Nigeria are scammers.
Sorry double-O that your dad wasn't able to send some money home for the holidays via WU. Did he send it through MG? |

Maybe they thought my dad was getting himself into trouble and lied to try to protect him. |

^^^^ How much did he try to send?
I understand there's a limit per transfer to Nigeria.
Maybe your father was just over the limit, they told him 'no,' and he misunderstood. |

^^^ Do you by chance know what the limit is?
If you don't, no biggie, I can always invent one the next time I have to "use" them. |

Can't really see WU not allowing money to be sent to Nigeria. They'd probably go bankrupt if they did. |

It's possible the WU operator's alarm bells sounded. If it is a new policy, even an unwritten one, it's yet another thing the lads have messed up for the decent huge majority of people in Nigeria. |

The limit used to be $2999 I believe. I have been spreading rumours to all my mugus that WU has suspended transactions to Nigeria. Maybe they caught wind of that. |

mm...should this news be enough to try the:
"I've tried W.U. transfer, but they won't send my money because it's going to nigeria"
Then suggest they pick it up in Accra, Ghana instead? |
