http://www.westernunion.com/info/selectCountry.asp is the best option for finding branches.
Search is on the blue bar at the top. Second line down.

Love the name, I grew up with a lad called Dick Head (true - only the lads lie) I never once made fun over his name either.

Christmassy kisses to all Dick Heads everywhere and Eaters.

I researched this a while back for somebody or other, Western Union do indeed have a handful of branches in the major cities, mainly Johannesburg... (off the top of my head, I think there were about 3 there, with another one or two in the other big cities).
Their website gives details, as Bill, Nanny and Mr Skinner have alluded to. Smile

Earlier this year a Lad told Captain Mal:

Quote:

I personally went to the Western Union Money Transfer office here in Johannesburg to ask if they got an office in Alice Spring Australia. They confirm to me that they got office there so I don't know what to tell you again.

Mal replied:

Quote:

I don't know what's going on here, but something is very wrong.
I'm telling you there is no Western Union agency anywhere in South Africa, yet you claim to have gone to the Western Union office in Johannesburg.
Why are you lying to me?

The Lad knuckled under fast (maybe because he was in Nigeria, not South Africa):

Quote:

I am very sorry about that someone take me to a place to ask them.

The matter never came up again.

At the time I went to the Western Union website, looked for agents in South Africa, and found none. Now there are four. Just as well there weren't any back then...
