However, to our disappointment, the money has yet to arrive, and the explanations given by WorldRemit have been inadequate. They cited "technical issues" with their Ghanaian partner,

and since then, we have received five email updates, all containing the same unhelpful message (which is attached to this post). We even attempted to contact their support team three times, but they provided us with the same unsatisfactory response. Unfortunately, we cannot cancel the transfer since it is "stuck" in Ghana, apparently.

On the other hand, we have had a different experience with Remitly. We made a few transactions through their platform, and the money arrived promptly, within minutes, as expected.
If you have had a similar disappointing experience with WorldRemit, we invite you to share your comments. We suggest that Ghanaians who need to transfer money should explore alternative services to avoid such issues.
