Anyone use WU to deposit on UB?

I'm just wondering if anyone has any experience depositing on UB using Western Union. If so, how fast was it? Were there only $15 in fees? Thanks.

I tried. Didn't work for me. On $650, fee about $70. Western Union is very diligent about making sure that you are not being scammed and the verification process is extensive. The website says cannot use for internet gambling. They actually wanted to know how I knew the person receiving the money (could be because I couldn't pronouce the last name of the person in Peru). When I told them it was personal and not really their business, they insisted to know why I was sending this person money. Evidently, you can't use Western Union for purchases of items and are supposed to know the person you send money to. I gave up.

I've used it on Stars a couple of times (once today in fact)and it couldn't have been any easier.

Press the WU button on the stars cashier and the info pops up on who and where to send your money.

Go to your WU and send cash to the exact name and location that you were instructed and return to the stars cashier screen and enter your control number.

Presto, within the hour you're playing.

How much did it cost on Stars with fees?
