Hello! Has anyone tried this website www.remit2home.com in wiring money from the USA? How did it go for you? Is it reliable and safe?

I would stick with something with a history. I ended up setting up a savings account for Claudeth and gave her the ATM. It costs $1.50 to use the BPI ATM to withdraw money which is a damn sight better than Western Union. Her parents now have the card and we can easily give them money each month.

Since we are on the subject of transferring money, what other options are there besides Western Union and setting up an account for fiance(e)?

You can send a wire if the receiver has a bank account to send it to. We've done that once on a larger transfer and it went very well and very cost efficient. The fee for the wire is usually flat which makes this attractive for larger transfers (some institutions offer it free of charge to their customers - WAMU, for example - but there is usually an intermediary bank involved that will take between $20.00 and $50.00).

I use Xoom.com they can pick up the money at BPI bank, BDO and SM or have it transferred to their bank account in the Philippines. They have the lowest fees Ive seen and more than 50% cheaper than Western Union or Money Gram. Ive been using ther service now for nearly 3years (or ever since they were online).

Caution using Remit2Home.com for money transfers!!!!

First I want to mention, this is not slander. Slander is making false statements or false claims about some person or business. This is all accurate and true.

My Fiancée lives in the Philippines and I live in America. I often send her money for some support, or to build up some savings for when I arrive there to live.

I have used a few of the money transfer companies available on the internet, which I will not mention except Remit2Home.

From the comments I will leave, you will have a good hint who they are. All work fine except little irritations, fight over fees and such EXCEPT Remit2Home.com

At first I had used a company that has been around for many years. They first started their business sending telegrams. I stopped using them since there fees were too high.

I then found a company that would send my fiancée an ATM debit card and all my money would be deposited into her account. The fees were less, but she would be charged a fee every month and each time she used her card. One day I get a notice that there is a problem with the state of Florida and they will not allow money send from here. I do not know if the problem was resolved yet since.

I then switched to another company. The new company worked great! I could send money from a credit card, a PayPal account or directly from my bank account. Then my fiancée could get it delivered to her home, pick up at a bank, or deposited directly into her personal bank account. I had never had any problems with them. For a hint; zoom to where “X” marks the spot is where I prefer to use.

Then Remit2Home started flooding the internet with their ads. They said their fee was less so I decided to try them out.

I signed up, and proceeded to send Elena some money. They did their test of my account sending me a small amount then taking it back. I then got a phone call from them wanting to know everything about me except maybe my blood type. One thing they did ask was the test transfer amount to prove I was the account holder. This all happened within 2 days after I signed up. Then we waited a week, nothing. Then 2 weeks, still nothing. They advertise 24/7 support. WHERE? Their phones are never answered and their Chat Live crashes or never works.

Oh, one time they answered the phone, and the girl said she would contact someone in the customer service department and have someone return my call. NEVER HAPPENED. I would send emails and 2 days later I would get a promise they are investigating. 2 days ago, I get an email saying the money has been deposited. Well, my fiancée went to her bank and NO, NOTHING THERE. Also now all I get is their <auto> response email, but nothing more. It has been ONE MONTH and no money. My only thanks to GOD it was not my the last of my money and it was not needed for an emergency.

I have noticed they do not advertise on Goggle anymore and I am wondering if they are out of business

I do not know if anyone else has used Remit2Home, and/or if it worked, but I think you should use this as a warning and use some other service.

Hello, this is a reply to Remit2Home.

Well, you did it again. My family went to get the money whereas your bank had instructed them to come and get it by phone and then all over again. The reference number is wrong they say and this was double checked by my family for accuracy. You have played games. Tell them to give my family the money ok dammit. Give my family the money. How many times do I have to tell you to give my family the money. For damn sure this will never happen again. I am finished with your remittance company I think the bank has sagotaged your company in favor of some other remittance company to cause you to lose me as a customer. Well, it worked. Now, you have to get rid of them. Let me give you a scenario of what happened which does not fit what you told me exterior to any emails you sent which were not in accordance with any time frames. I applied because of the free time card and money off. Great. Now, the time card would not work properly at first for some reason beyond my knowledge. I tried it several different ways and lost a few minutes off when it finally decided to work for me. Great. I got the money off sending the money to my family. Great. Now, I read your site to send the money and watched the demo. I did not see in the demo where it instructed me to give my family a reference number. I know for a fact as I have had others to look at the site. You are wrong. Now, I send the money and the site tells me that in order to make sure the money is verified they will send some cents to my bank account. I agree. They did that and it registered. Now, no one at the bank called and told my family the money was there. I gave you the number to call them. Now, they called the bank(my fmaily) and the bank said it was there, even though you required of me a send back amount to so called verification which is proper. What was not proper was the bank told my family that the money was ready for pickup when it was not ready yet. They went, and was told they needed a reference number. Well, in the meantime I checked with my bank and got the 13 cent deposit and then installed it on your site. I picked up the reference number after I found out they were denied the money. I sent that to them. They now went back to the bank and was denied again saying that the reference number is wrong. Now, you are wrong again. Now, how are you going to handle this? This has cost my dear old mother a lot of money and heartache and anguish. This old mother of mine went out early in the morning and traveled down a river for one hour and then suffered through a horrendous storm. She was denied the money at the Equitable Bank in Tacloban, Leyte and she did it all over again to her demise. She still does not have the money as of today and it has been over a week now on this mixup of information. This old lady suffered for a measly 50 dollars, all that I could send so far to help her and the children out that needed money so bady for their sickness and starvation. They are very poor and I am too. :crying: :crying: I feel like you need to be sued for this along with the ACH taking a look at your books. Now, I told you if you remember that I told you that your site locked my email address? Well, you said it did not and asked for a screen shot. I sent you both, a copy and a screen shot. Now, I think you believe me. Someone is sabotaging your site maybe. I do not know. Maybe someone installed a wrong reference number. I do not know except what I have experienced with the people in the Philippines being corrupt and outright ####### like now but let me assure that there are very nice ones there otherwise I would not have family at all. I have no idea what nationality owns this company but I damn sure am going to find out. He or they will get this information one way or the other. This was wrong to do any old lady this way but you know something, God has a way to get people back. I have seen that in operation before and believe me He does take care of business.

Since we are on the subject of transferring money, what other options are there besides Western Union and setting up an account for fiance(e)?

I only had luck with RemitHome not Remit2Home. I tried Xoom and they delivered my money to someone other than my family. They said sorry even though my family did get the money but they gave away my privacy to someone other than family. The person whom took my money was her boss whom I intended to never let him know about any money that was being sent. Since he found out she lost her incentive for Christmas as he felt she did not need any extra due to her getting my money. ---Thanks to !!!! xoom for destroying her finances due to giving my money to her boss instead of her. That was not in accordance with our agreements and they just said "sorry." Yes, and they lost me as a customer. Now, remit2home has destroyed also a fine arrangement. Take a look at remit2home's policy and you will see that no matter what happens you cannot even get your money back if a mistake is made! read it close and you will see they are not responsible for your money. I was shocked to see they retain no liabilty if you send money through them. Now, RemitHome is where I will go from now on. I hope they continue like they have in giving good service. I was suckered into sending remit2home by their incentive for a few free minutes on a call card that took me two days and aggravation to get the card to work. I hope everyone takes a stand to make sure the companies become responsible in their demonstrations to show how to send money. Remit2Home did not advise to give a reference number, but only an ID for money pickup. When, after a horrid trip for my mother, she was refused because of this reference number and once again she went with the number and was told the number was not right. Now, after two trips down a long winding torrid river in storms this old lady whom needed the money for starving medically needy children was denied the right to have my money by Equitable Bank in Tacloban, Leyte through Remit2Home and no one called me on this matter from either source to correct any discrepancies. I think they are no damn good and do not have one piece of heart left in them. These children and the mother has now starved for over four days without money and the kids are sick and no way for a doctor because of remit2home and equitable bank. God save something. :crying:
