<Puretime> Answer:
Many thanks for shopping with PureTime! - The below is our Wester Union account and Money Gram info: (...) Receiver Info (...)

<me>
Payed and gave them the WU-MTCN + all the necessary information to receive the money. (I have been in ecommerce for the last 20 years as an entrepreneur. I know how payment methods work)

+1 day

<Puretime>:
ok. will inform you after we pick up the money.

+55 minutes later
<WUnion>: Notification
"WU: Pick-up notification - Your receiver has picked up the money you sent. Your transaction details are below."

<Puretime>:
we didn't pick up the money, but the payment status shows received. Please check again.

Hello,

I checked again with WU Support Team. Since I do not assume that you are not telling the truth, but maybe we were both unfortunately cheated here is a short update from my side:

the money was picked up at just before 11am your time at a counter.... about 55 minutes after your message. It was paid out in cash by WU at a counter. For WU this transaction has been successfully completed - I payed.

this means:
a) the person who picked up the money on your behalf lied to you.
b) someone on your side is reading my and your emails in your ticket system, and has sent someone with my information already before your contact to WU.

there are no other possible versions, if you trust puretimewatch.io (I still do) and don't believe that an employee of WU is cheating - I exclude that (which I still do at the moment).
anyway: I can't solve this problem, except to just pay again - which I won't do because I am not stupid. The problem happened (unfortunately) on your side!

Thanks



********************************

and here we are. since i have read so many positive reviews about puretime here, i do not assume that i am a victim of fraud on the part of puretime, but that the money collector of puretime is cheating the people of puretime. i exclude fraud at WU. the money was collected within 55 minutes - i believe in coincidences, but not in such coincidences.

if there are any updates, i will let you know. otherwise, i can only strongly advise against paying with WU - as long as i trust your ratings and the merchant himself is to be trusted and unfortunately write off the matter on my side as a total loss.

cheers!

quick update:
I got the quality check images last week... these pics looked good - so I directly replied "approved".

last week the package was marked as shipped with 4px. (thank you puretime-team :thumbsup: )

since 4 days the tracking-status is "Parcel information received".

very exciting!

Short update from my side.

the watch was shipped, and was with me within (amazingly fast) one week. The watch is great, the movement runs amazingly accurate and everything finally worked perfectly.

That's why I just ordered another watch ;)

Thank you Puretime team!
