Western Union:Fund transfers with western union can be done either online or physically at a money transfer agent. Usually the funds will be available within minutes however to comply with anti money-laundering laws sometimes you are required to making a confirmation phone call before the money is released. A confirmation of money collection is also sent to the sender.
For online transfers and transfers made from an agent location the only information required are the personal names and details of the sender and the receiver. The send if at a agent location needs to provide their passport as must the receiver on collection. When the sender sends the money they receive a personal MTCN number(Money Control Number) which they then need to pass on to the receiver so that they can make the collection.
