Topic: BITCOIN IS BETTER THAN WESTERN UNION ? - page 30. (Read 70016 times)

I think bitcoin win in every way when compared to western union if we use bitcoin to send money doesn't have to wait long just in one hour or less and as you said about  fee transaction.

but there are lot of companys that offer lwo transaction transferwise idkk

Yes Bitcoin is better then western union, at least we haven't to give our data and personal infos and also it's having a lot of other powerful features.

I believe that Bitcoin is a lot better than using many payment processors like western union and so on, it's faster method, open and decentralized and with lowest fee, so i always prefer to use it instead using the other ones

Same here, I also use bitcoin for transaction. It's more easy to transaction and the fee is the biggest problem why i chose bitcoin. You only need to pay the small fee, not like western union.

For transactions I prefer only bitcoin to all my friends and I tell them that with that you can save much of your money by wasting in others transactions fees etc. It is also very much easier and convenient and take less time rather than Western Union.

The bitcoin is way better than the western union with the western you can transfer money to another country of course, globally but the point is it takes ages, its just ridiculous.
With the bitcoin in fact this is not the point at all its easy to use and also globally transferable in minutes.

This is pretty useless thread! Everybody who knows about Bitcoin knows that it's better than Western Union. But where Western Union shines is that it is EVERYWHERE. Everybody can use it and getting money is very secure for sender and receiver. Everything else about it sucks.

We would know because we sell and take: Western Union, Moneygram, credit cards, bank wires, Paypal and BTC. WU became a huge pain in the ass by blocking recipients, basically refusing good transfers and screwing up our business for no reason.

Yes, we try to talk people into BTC but it is a tall order. BTC is hard to handle. Where it shines is in it's essence, send it receive it in minutes or less. Before and after it sucks. To buy it it is hard. To sell it is also hard. The most painful thing is to register yourself at exchange in order to buy BTC, sell it and get fiat money. At that point applicant must endure probing into personal data, copy passport, driver's license, bank statement, proof of this and that and I am sure they will start asking for blood and piss sent by courier in vials for testing. You tell me where is anonymity there?

We have one account at former CAVirtex and tried to get account at Bitstamp. Gave up after week or two. Couldn't stand it any more. Anyway, we are in Burlington, Ontario, Canada and have that experience. I would like that someone explain how will person from Africa get all this done? I'll tell you how ... he can't, no freaking way. Instead, he walks into nearest Western Union that is at about every tree there (and everywhere else for that matter) and send us 100 dollars + 20-30 bucks for WU fees!
