Update:
The wire transfer did not go through.

Quote from: Western Union

We are sorry to inform you that based on the information provided, Western Union must decline to process your transaction. Western Union is subject to a number of economic sanctions and restrictions imposed by the United States and other countries, and it appears based on the information that you have provided, the transaction might violate one or more of these sanction programs.

Excuse me? International sanctions?
Me, an American, is attempting to send another American money from one American bank account to another American bank account. And this violates international sanctions?

Sorry but I don't understand why would you use western union to transfer money between two bank accounts both in the US. Use a direct wire, it might not be SEPA but I bet is faster than WU.

What gives Paypal the right to decide what I do with my money? Who the hell are they to say that a transaction I choose to make is "too risky" or "unsafe"?

Paypal's recommendation for what I can do? "Go find someone else to send your money."

Well, you gave them those rights when you opened your account. Grin

Did you go through all that agreement and read all of it?

Neither did I till the first time I had somewhat of a problem with them but seriously, If I had read it earlier I wouldn't have used them at all, I got headaches counting the possibilities of having my money and account frozen.
