Product: Money transfer, virtual currency, or money service — International money transfer
Issue: Other transaction problem — 
Company: MONEYGRAM PAYMENT SYSTEMS WORLDWIDE INC
State: AL

Complaint narrative:
On XX/XX/year> I initiated a transfer of {$5000.00} via XXXX XXXX XXXX to a close friend in XXXX. The transfer didn't go through, so I called and requested a refund, and I was informed that I should have the refund within 10 days. After 10 days I called them because I hadn't received the refund. I was informed that because it had been after XXXX days, they must do an investigation and file a complaint for me. They said that once again it shouldn't take long. After 10 days I called them again and was told that I should probably receive the money in about XXXX days. They went through this cycle until XXXX of this year, me still not receiving the money. When I called them in XXXX, they finally decided to tell what the problem was. They informed me that they couldn't process the refund because the debit card I used had been restricted. I told them that yes, the card had been cancelled by my financial institution ( XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ) and there was an ongoing investigation by XXXX XXXX because XXXX XXXX had informed me that someone outside of the area had attempted to access my account online, I told XXXX XXXX that I hadn't given my information to anyone. So I called XXXX XXXX and discovered that the original debit card could still be used. When I called Money Gran and told them what my financial situation had said, they said they still couldn't refund the money. So I again called XXXX XXXX, they assured me on several calls and personal visits to a branch it could be done. I have informed XXXX XXXX of this several times and they keep saying that they can't. I have even given them the toll free phone number for XXXX XXXX several times in hopes that they would contact XXXX XXXX and resolve this. I even asked Money Gram if they would participate in a XXXX way call with XXXX XXXX, who was willing, and they refused. The last communication I received from Money Gram was an email asking for information, which except for the debit card number, which I supplied. I surrendered the first debit card to my financial institution when I got a new card, so I don't remember the number. Money Gram has also been informed that now they must return the money to the savings account at XXXX XXXX. I have even tried to ask Money Gram if they would use an alternative method to refund the money on XXXX XXXX 's suggestion, to which they won't co-operate. It is going on XXXX months and no action from Money Gram, seems like it's stalling and the " run-around '' from them.
