The one time I tried sending money from Los Angeles, CA, USA to Portland, OR, USA, I wasn't able to meet the criteria necessary to complete the transaction. Some my friend and I, both US Citizens, raised a red flag. It felt pretty lame, and the person manning the Western Union location couldn't care less about helping me navigate the system. I haven't lost a lot of sleep over this, but I never tried using the service again!
