Happen to hear that many 'illegal' workers here consistently use WU - mainly because they don't have a bank account. But do check out your local bank; some of them are still giving you a bargain. There are also other ways: International Money Orders (via the Post Office, but which takes a while); cashier's checks - but then banks there charge extra for cashing them - as well as personal checks. Should not consider putting cash into an envelope - ever! Joe Equinunk, PA - USA jjarfas@ezaccess.net --- [This E-mail scanned for viruses by ezaccess.net]
