@Andrew Ooi
Ah, I see. That would be the same rate as mine.

@liciece
Thanks for the info. I will try out RHB next time since the two banks are just side by side.

@KennyP
Wish you able to cash out your adsense earnings sooner

@Danny Foo
You don’t need a bank account since the transaction is done separately. You can go to any bank or even the post office that has Western Union service.

@Azmeen
Thanks for answering Danny’s question. Oh, I didn’t know about that. Anyway, it’s true that the difference won’t be that big. Unless I am cashing out hundreds or thousands of US$ (which I am not). LOL.

Actually when it comes to Western Union, the rates doesn’t matter. You will always get the worse rate between:

1) The rate when payment is issued; and
2) The rate when payment is received

Let’s say when the payment is issued USD$1 = RM3.15 and when you’re cashing out the WU transaction it is USD$1 = RM3.13, you will get the last rate.

Scenario 2: when the payment is issued USD$1 = RM3.13 and when you’re cashing out the WU transaction it is USD$1 = RM3.15, you will get the first rate (exchange rate at issuance time).

This shouldn’t matter much though if the differences were minimal.

And if you don’t mind 10/3, I’d like to answer Danny’s question; no, you don’t need a bank account to obtain your WU moolah. They’ll give it to you in cold hard cash.

Do you need a bank account with Cimb in order to withdraw from there?

Post office and bank is near my place but wondering which may be better.

The last time I did it was through Msybank itself. Long wait and less cash.

Congratulations!

The rate is quite good, I should also able to cash out very soon.
