This review was chosen algorithmically as the most valued customer feedback.

For over three years, I've been supporting the education of a young law student in Colombia (Rosa Angela Iscala Cardenas). Each month since 2019, I've made it my commitment to sponsor her studies and living expenses. Unfortunately, my efforts to uphold this support have been hampered by the recent and unjust blocking of transactions by WesternUnion. This unexpected disruption threatens my ability to continue aiding her academic journey.

This lawyer comes from a challenging background, living solely with her mother and two sisters. Their financial means have never been enough to cover the costs of education and associated expenses. I've personally taken on this responsibility to ensure she achieves her academic goals.

She's now in the penultimate semester of her studies and is set to graduate as a lawyer in June 2024. The significance of education in shaping her future and that of her family cannot be overstated. However, Western Union's unexplained blockage of my transactions undermines the crucial assistance I provide.

I urgently implore WesternUnion to swiftly resolve this issue. Every passing month without this support jeopardizes not only her education but the opportunities it holds for her future. Join me in advocating for a prompt resolution to this matter. The potential of this young woman to create a positive impact through her education is immeasurable. Let's ensure that barriers like these don't impede her path to success.

Thank you for your prompt attention to this pressing matter. I eagerly anticipate a positive and timely solution.

Claimed loss: 1 month using services of Western Union

Desired outcome: allow sending money from my western union account
