Complaint What Happened |
On XX/XX/2024, we utilized a Money services company called viamericas XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX for a money order for the total of XXXX.
We were issued a receipt of the transaction ( see attachments ) however, after weeks of purchasing the money order, the payee had still not received the funds.
FFWD to today ( XX/XX/2024 ) and the payee still shows the payment as not having been received. And because the payment hasn't been received yet, the payee now charged us a late fee of {$10.00}.
We've been calling and emailing the company to ask for proof of the money order having been forwarded/ received and/or cashed by the payee, but to date, they have not provided any such physical evidence. They have only verbally responded saying that " there is no hold on the money order, but that it hasn't been cashed. ''
