I filled out their form properly, filling all the blanks, then sent $300 dollars to the Philippines. I thought everything was fine, but then the next day I somebody was calling me trying to verify my personal details. When I told the guy, he said my birthdate was wrong. How does he know that my birthdate was wrong? I checked all my details before I submitted them. So I asked why they are verifying my details when it should be the receiver's details they should be verifying.
After the long weekend, somebody again called me to verify my personal details, saying my transaction cannot be processed unless I verify them! Arrrrgh! So I told her to cancel my transaction, but she said I should verify my personal details first!
Later I went to my bank and found out they have already taken the amount. Right on the very day I tried to send it (June 26)! Since the woman was saying on July 2 that the transaction cannot be processed, why did they take my money on June 26?
This is a huge scam. They are only looking for loopholes so they cannot be charged yet hold on to your money.

G'day Rey
Did WR ever get your issue resolved or are you still awaiting an outcome.
The guys calling to verify, were they from UK or another country and what other questions did they attempt to extract?
I noted this company is listed as WorlRemit and World Remit and there are two lots of complaints.
Your reply would be apprecaited
