Consumer Narrative
On XXXX XXXX I sent my wife {$2700.00} dollars to her account in which it stated completed with but bank stated they never received it. On my side it said still in transit. After several attempts of back & forth about where the money was the bank finally got their main branch involved & seen where they had been trying to send it but they were rejecting due to the amount. They stated that she could not received over {$2500.00} in single transaction going to her card but if money gram could just split the amount up in different amount as long as it wasn't above {$2500.00}. I tried doing that & still they stated they wanted to hear that from the bank. My wife had letterhead drawn up & sent in to them through email stating why it wasnt going through & still no response.
