Western Union

I learnt a R900 lesson. I tried sending money to Denmark using the Wester Union transfer service linked to the Absa banking app. The interface is terrible, the prompts are basic & there are no gates to check whether you have entered the correct details. It was my first & last time using it. Use TRANSFERWISE rather. It is cheaper & efficient with a good customer interface.
