I sent money using WU & the receiver informs me that they've been banned from using WU? Will I have any problems getting a refund? Should I avoid WU in the future? 

 
This is just my experience.  I got ripped off bad when I first joined the game.  I went to WU on the first one.  My bank denied the transaction at first.  I did it online.  Since it was denied by the bank, I call WU, and they said it was just a matter of the authorization request dropping off and then the money would be debited back into my bank.  I didn't think much of it as that is how most hotels and many other transactions are.  After 7 days, I called WU again to find out how come I still didn't have my money back.  They informed me that it is policy to keep sending through the transaction until they do get authorization.  On day five they did get it.  Called my bank and there is nothing they could do.

For me MG just doesn't work at least out of the US if you try it online.  I have found that if I take the same cash to Walmart and do the transaction it goes through in less than 5 minutes.

 
I don't believe I'm being ripped off. The seller was bannned & can't get funds but I'm wondering if WU will be a problem for me to use based on this transaction. Ii may be overthinking this.

 
@Biteme   I have had issues with Wu and Mg in the past but I can still use them.  I think you will be ok and as long as you are able to prove you sent the money, you should be able to get a refund.  Receivers change all the time and I have even had to call Wu to change the receiver after getting an email from the vendor requesting a change.  It happens everyday and I think your assessment is correct.... I, like you, have a tendency to overthink things, especially in this game!! :)  

 
I got the refund minus the WU fee after about 45 minutes while the guy at the place I used to send the money talked to various people at WU.

  2. L @ Layne_Cobain: Big league chew was fire and crazy addictive I remember cause like you said it was so soft so always felt like you weren’t chewing on enough until you had the whole pack in your mouth looking like an ole baseball pitcher with a cheek full of chaw
  3. N @ necromedic: It was, indeed, and very soft. Would almost flow through your hands on a hot day.
  4. Mom&PopShop @ Mom&PopShop: I'm trying to remember what the texture was like.. I know it came in a pouch like chewing tobacco. I remember it being cut up in strips like shredded chewing tobacco too, was that the case???
  5. Mom&PopShop @ Mom&PopShop: That big league chew was fire tho fr!!

  7. M @ meepmoopmeep: bro what is this shoutbox today 😭😭
  8. LatsDoodis @ LatsDoodis: Whatever happened to great American boobs. I miss those, too. I wasn’t allowed to fondle them as a kid, my parents were health conscious.
  9. LatsDoodis @ LatsDoodis: Bubblegum rack? Like, boobies?
  10. LatsDoodis @ LatsDoodis: Don’t message people about things like veterinary care without taking care to mind the rules you two crazy nuts. More at stake than getting bad info or scammed, there’s predators out there looking for bigger fish and will step on a guppy to get to them. Fishing expeditions aren’t just for private citizens enjoying a calm weekend exploring the lake for a fish hookup. Offish of offishial fishing investigations may be looking for the best fishing hole and scare off the big
  11. xenxra @ xenxra: what do you mean "what happened to it"? it's sitting at the store on the bubblegum rack like it always has
  12. LatsDoodis @ LatsDoodis: What happened to Big League Chew? That was some mighty fine chewing gum. I personally never had any, but I think of it often.
