Western Union Tries To Resuscitate The Singing Telegram

Western Union over charges way too much. I wanted to send 5,000 to someone. Western Union said it would charge 276.00 to send it.

I went to my credit union to do a wire transfer. Cost: 20.00.

276 is way too much to type a few keys.

It may be ok in an extreme emergency but I will use my bank from now on.
