MoneyGrams records indicate that a person identifying themselves as the intended receiver of the transaction visited a MoneyGram location and completed a MoneyGram 'receive form' requesting payment of the funds. In completing the form, the recipient correctly provided the names of the sender and the receiver, along with the (8-digit reference number) that is associated with this transaction.The recipient also presented the receiving agent with photographic identification. When an agent is presented with identification that meets our photographic requirements and the correct reference number is provided,MoneyGram is contractually required to release the funds. Subsequently, the transaction amount was paid out by the MoneyGram agent. The agent confirmed that the funds were paid out, therefore a refund is not available. We now consider this matter closed.

I purchased a money order on July 9,2021. The money order never made it to it's desired location. I checked on the money order for almost two years. It still was never cashed. I filed for a replacement money order on the 3rd of April 2023. I was given information about the replacement, which doesn't sit well with me. I do understand why I am being charged fees for a money order I purchased. It was not my fault that the money order didn't make it to the source. I am being penalized for asking for a replacement money order. This is not right in no way, shape, or form. I would appreciate it if my $177.00 was returned to me, without me being held responsible for something that was out of my control. Thank you in advance.

I know I recently filed a complaint against money gram. The the reason I am refiling is because, I received an email that I would receive $92, of my $177.00, because of processing fees. The part I do not understand is, I did nothing wrong except to get a money order through money gram. The money order didn't make it to the place it was suppose to make it to, I was told by my company, that I am owed my $177.00, because it is still my money. The money order I bought and paid for, That is the reason I don't understand why money gram is charging me, to get my money back, so I am being charged twice, just to get what's owed to me. I saw in the email that they took the $60.00 service fee off, but the replacement is still $92.00, therefore they are still taking the same amount from me. I don't understand why is it so hard to replace my $177.00, and putting fees on my to keep part of my money that is owed to me. The money order is dated July 9, 2021, I will continue to file a complaint until I receive my $177.00, which is rightfully me.

MoneyGram appreciates the opportunity to review and respond to Ms. ****** concerns.

According to MoneyGrams records, ************** submitted a request for refund in April 2023.The refund request was processed in April 2023 via a money transfer and the details were sent to ************** via email. $25.00 processing fee + $60.00 servicing fee was deducted from the face amount of the money order, bringing the total face value of the refund available to $92.00.

Please note that if a money order is not used or cashed within one year from the date of purchase, a non-refundable monthly service charge is assessed and the service charge is deducted from the face amount of the money order. The service charge agreement is located on the back of each money order.

The refund was available for ************** to collect from any MoneyGram agent for 90 days but has since expired. A new reference number was issued and sent to ************** via email from her money order case on September 29, 2023. The funds in the amount of $92.00 will remain available for ************** to collect for 90 days.

A bill payment transfer was submitted to a ****** via Moneygram on September 6th at 8:17PM CDT for the total amount of $425.The automatic confirmation email sent by the system did not contain/include the reference number as usual but the payee, the fees and the total cost. This was an indication of a potential system error. I was able to get the reference number after a few minutes.After 3 days, the payment was still not received by the payee, and it is still the case as of today September 21st, 2023.I have contacted the payee on several occasions and is unable to trace/has no proof of payment sent by Moneygram. Moneygram on the other end is not helping as usual. I have requested a refund but their only excuse is that they are waiting for the payee to respond even though it is just a phone call away.

I sent $140.00 in funds using MoneyGram, to a dear friend in ******, *********** on 6/23/2023. About 4 days later, when my friend, *****************************************, informed me that his bank, *********** had not received any money for him, I contacted MoneyGram and was told there was a delay but that the transaction was in process and that it was too late to cancel and resend as a cash pickup. Three more days later, my friend's bank informed him again that nothing had been received to his account despite ********************** telling me that the transfer went through.Fast forward three months and 3 case numbers later, #********, #********, and #********, and I am still trying to find out what happened to my money, as my friend most definitely did not receive it, which I confirmed directly with his bank over the phone, so anyone's guess why MoneyGram hasn't done the same. They still insist that the transfer went through when that is simply not possible. They have marked each case as 'resolved' without actually providing any real resolution. MoneyGram has also never bothered to follow up directly with ***********

According to MoneyGrams records, ************ sent funds for credit to her receivers mobile wallet on June 23, 2023. Our records indicate that the funds were credited to the account on June 30, 2023.

As ************ stated that the funds were not delivered, MoneyGram reached out to our partner for confirmation of the deposit. The partner responded and confirmed that the funds were successfully delivered.

After completing our investigation, we have determined that a mistake has not occurred as defined under the Remittance Rule. MoneyGram is satisfied that all necessary steps were taken to pay out the transaction to the account number provided at the time of the send.

As MoneyGram has determined an error has not occurred, we consider this matter closed.

Pursuant to the Remittance Transfer Rule of Regulation E, 31 C.F.R. sec. 1005.33(d), if you complained about a payment error and we determined that no error occurred,you have the right to request the documents on which we relied in making our determination. Should you request such documentation, you may be required to verify your identity, such as providing a copy of a valid government ID and/or affidavit, prior to receiving the documentation.

The statement from MoneyGram, "According to MoneyGrams records, ************ sent funds for credit to her receivers mobile wallet on June 23,2023." is false. The $140.00 in funds were instructed to be sent to the account number of the recipient, Account# ***********, at his bank, which is ********** in ******. However, when the recipient, *****************************************, arrived at his bank to retrieve the funds he was told by the staff that no funds had been received for him. ********* returned to the bank several times, including on June 30, 2023, only to be told the same thing; that no funds were received for him.
I spoke directly with ********** at *************** on Wednesday, September 6th, to ask about the transaction and was informed by them that funds cannot be received from MoneyGram directly to a customer's account. The ********************** has to be received as an over-the-counter transaction for the recipient, which the bank claims was never done. Therefore, I fail to see how this transaction was "successful."
MoneyGram insists that the funds were delivered, yet, to my knowledge, they have not spoken with **********, nor has MoneyGram ever shown me any proof whatsoever that the transaction was carried through. As far as I know, my money is still stuck in limbo and clearly has never been delivered, yet MoneyGram claimed that my money would be safe with them.
The recipient has never received the $140 USD that I sent to him, nor has **********, according to their staff. Until I see something on paper or digitally that shows the money was received by ********** and delivered to *************************************, I have no choice other than to conclude that my money was stolen, namely by MoneyGram.

MoneyGrams records indicate that the funds were successfully credited to the intended receivers account, therefore we are unable to refund the transfer as MoneyGram is not in possession of the funds. To request proof of deposit of the transfer,please email an official copy of the receivers statement to show the funds were not delivered. *******************************************

Once I obtain the ********** statement for ***************************************** account showing proof that no deposit transaction occurred in June or July 2023, as MoneyGram claims, I will forward it to the customer service email address provided, in the hope that I will finally be allowed a refund of $140.00 USD, because at this time, my money is still lost or stolen.

On August 10th, 2023 at 11:38 am, I carried out a wire transfer transaction at ******* via Moneygram to send $1525 **( (or 2021 ********) dollars to a ******** ******* of **************** was an error on the entry because the university did not recieve my transaction. I filed two cases with Moneygram international for a refund, and although there was an error on behalf of an employee, moneygram international has rejected two of my cases due to the remittance rule. However, there was a mistake made upon entry and I would just like to be refunded $1525 US dollars for this big mistake. This money was going towards my entrance fee into ************** and I worked very hard for it.

On 8/1/2023, I sent $100 to my mom via Moneygram. Moneygram gave me transaction confirmation number #******** as proof of transaction completion however the money was never sent to the recipient’s mobile wallet. MTM which is the recipient’s mobile wallet company, gave me a printout of all transactions which shows that Moneygram never deposited the money into the recipient’s mobile wallet account. I reported this to Moneygram on 8/3/2023. They told me they will investigate.

Please see attached transaction report from MTM from Jul 31st through August 11, 2023. As you can see, Moneygram didn’t deposit the money into my recipient’s mobile wallet. I’ve sent this report to Moneygram, but they refused to give the money to my recipient or issue refund.

I asked for proof that the money was sent to MTM mobile wallet so that my recipient can take it to the mobile wallet company & get her money, but they never gave me the proof they just closed the case. I know this is not a lot of money for Moneygram, but it’s my money & I want the money given to my recipient or a refund issued.

If moneygram really did deposit the money into my recipient’s mobile wallet, I need a transaction report that my recipient can take to the mobile wallet company & claim her money.

My email address and debit card information was compromised, and a fraudulent transaction occured through MoneyGram's online transfer on July 30, 2023. I contacted MoneyGram's *********************** immediately upon notice of the fraudulent transaction, whereup an online account was created with my information without my knowledge nor consent and $100 was transferred from my bank account to someone in ******** (reference number ********) , again without my knowledge nor consent. I requested the fraudulent transaction be reversed and the fraudulent account be removed. I was told by MoneyGram's fraud department that the account would be removed but that the transaction could not be reversed on their end because it had already been completed, and to contact my bank regarding the transaction. I submitted a dispute with my bank to recover the money lost during the fraudulent transaction. That disput was overturned on September 6, 2023 when MoneyGram provided false documentation stating the transaction was not fraudulent, despite the fact that I was told by MoneyGram's fraud department that I had submitted a fraud report. I again contacted MoneyGram's fraud department to file another fraud report, as I originally assumed the first one had been filed incorrectly. Every representative I spoke to was not only rude, dismissive, and insulting, but they claimed it was my own fault my information was compromised and refused to file another report, and also refused to provide documentation proving the fraudulent account created with my information was deleted, despite continued emails regarding account use. Therefore, I would like to file a formal complaint against MoneyGram for not only allowing this fraud to occur, but also for lying to my bank and myself to protect their own diminishing reputation. I seek for my information to be permanently removed from their systems, along with proof that the information has been removed, as well as a refund for the fraudulent transaction.

However, BBB does not verify the accuracy of information provided by third parties, and does not guarantee the accuracy of any information in Business Profiles.

When considering complaint information, please take into account the company's size and volume of transactions, and understand that the nature of complaints and a firm's responses to them are often more important than the number of complaints.

BBB Business Profiles generally cover a three-year reporting period, except for customer reviews. Customer reviews posted prior to July 5, 2024, will no longer be published when they reach three years from their submission date. Customer reviews posted on/after July 5, 2024, will be published indefinitely unless otherwise voluntarily retracted by the user who submitted the content, or BBB no longer believes the review is authentic. BBB Business Profiles are subject to change at any time. If you choose to do business with this company, please let them know that you checked their record with BBB.

As a matter of policy, BBB does not endorse any product, service or business. Businesses are under no obligation to seek BBB accreditation, and some businesses are not accredited because they have not sought BBB accreditation. BBB charges a fee for BBB Accreditation. This fee supports BBB's efforts to fulfill its mission of advancing marketplace trust.
