Western Union launched in South Korea

We're happy to announce that publishers located in South Korea can now receive payments via Western Union Quick Cash. You won't need to wait for your checks in the mail, and AdSense won't charge you any fees to use this payment method. Please note that payments can only be picked up at the International Bank of Korea (IBK) and are only available in South Korean Won (KRW) currency.

Sign up for payments by Western Union today by following these instructions. Two important things to remember: we can only send Western Union payments to individual publishers at this time, and the payee name on your account must exactly match the government issued ID card that you'll bring to pick up your payments. We also encourage you to review the information in our Help Center for more details about this payment method, including how you can pick up your payments and when you'll need to pick them up by.

I am very happy to hear that and it is great for the ones who live in South Korea. But I am living in Cambodia now, and It is not available for Western Union now. I have no ideas this is because of what any reasons, and on the other hand, I try to push AdSense in Cambodia thru setting an organization to provide people in Cambodia training on AdSense.

I hope that Google will take this into account.

There's nothing in your "Help" (a word used unadvisadly!) forum about this, and so I'm asking here and if I don't get an answer I guess I'll just have to cancel Adsense.

I tried to send a request for a reissuse of a disappeared check (it being impossible to get your system to do a direct deposit). When I hit "submit," it said I had to enter the check amount, even though the amount was right there in the "amount" slot.

If I don't get a response and I don't receive the money I've earned by running your ads on my site, I am going to complain to the US attorney general's office. Your organization is operating across state lines, and it does appear you are conducting a fraud, since it is impossible to get the money promised in your come-ons and it is impossible to reach a human being to ask for the money or for any help in obtaining the money. That would make your theft of the money a federal felony.

I will await your answer for about one day before sending a complaint to the authorities.

Well it takes about 35 days for my adsense checks to reach Guyana and 54 days for my bank to clear the check.

Please add Western Union to Guyana.

I am very happy to hear about it and it is great for people who live in South Korea. But I live in the country of Indonesia, and Western Union are not yet available in the country of Indonesia. I had no idea this was due to any reason, and on the other hand, I try to encourage state AdSense in Indonesia, I hope that Indonesia could soon follow as Korea. Also, hopefully in the state of Indonesia is training for people who are willing to join AdSense.

Western Union has INTERNAL FRAUD. I wired $1,000 USD to my wife in Philippines. I used transfer in minutes. Then, she went to her local WU branch. The computer system kept saying "fund to be released" for three days. Until yesterday, when I finally cannot wait any longer because she needs the fund today. I went to my local WU branch in San Francisco, they took me that the system showed that the fund has been "picked up" at US Estern time 7:47am, Gee, that cannot happen, because that is 7:40 pm in Ormoc City of Philippines, and all Western Union (WU) branches there are already closed. Now, that I have visited blogs with comments of people who have had similar bad experiences with Western Union. Their internal people commit these frauds because only they know the name of the receipient, the MTCN transfer number, etc. Otherwise, who else can commit this crime and know all the details of the money transfer? Now, that I will have to file a long complaint to my local authority to force Western Union to look at my case. That is $1,000 USD that my wife needs urgently for medical uses. Gee, why does Western Union allow their employees to easily commit this type of fraud? Well, to those folks who want to try Western Union money transfer, try it at your own risks. Good luck.
