  • Call Western Union at 1-800-325-6000 (must have a credit card)
  • Visit their site online (Spain)
2) Authorize the amount of money that is intended to transfer by completing a 'Send Money' form. 3) Give the name of the Receiver AND the city/country that the Receiver is to get the money. (The name of the Receiver that you give HAS to exactly match the name of the Receiver's identification) 4) The Depositor will receive a "numbered code" in which they must send to the Receiver (the Receiver ABSOLUTELY NEEDS this code in order to pick up his/her money) Western Union in Barcelona: Get Money When You Most Need It Image
