Not accusing them of anything shady. They have always been upfront and honest. I went in there with eyes wide open and I did profit overall from the experience.
But wow. Getting your money out of there is really something to behold.
They only have two methods of withdrawal. Western Union (max $1000 at a time) and Moneygram (max $850). No book-to-book. No nothing else.
So I played for awhile and finally ran up a balance and decided to cash out.
Total withdrawal = $7991 usd
Total fees (including currency conversions) = $857 usd
To be fair, if you don't count the currency conversions, the fees were a mere $577. The process took about 6 weeks and 9 separate trips to WU and MG outlets.
Again, they are not deceptive about any of this. I am not accusing them of malfeasance.
Just reporting the news.
