Proved to be difficult to get a money order when receiving child support payments through western…read moreunion. After being questioned for a good 10 minutes on why I was receiving child support money in the form of western union payments I was denied the ability to receive my WU payments with the explanation that they didn't agree with the method of payment. I was then told I needed to bring in proof of where the money I was receiving was coming from (This was for a sum of less than $7k). I instead went to Publix where they gave me my WU payments without question. I do not recommend Amscot for Western Union or money orders

I had to pay a bill that had to be paid by certified funds and it was after business hours for a…read moreregular bank so I decided to try Amscot. They were very nice and professional. I also learned that you can cash checks here, get money orders etc. While I do have a back account its always good to have options so I even set up an account here in case I ever had to cash a client check. Amscot is a good option even for people who have bank accounts. I imagine most of their business is from people who are not able to get a bank account so this is their only option. The fees are higher than most but if I cash a check at say, Chase I have to pay a fee of $6.00. Here is is 4.45% on hand written checks. Not too bad I guess. I hope I never have to use this service but its just an extra option for me.

Let me defend myself here right away. I am not a regular customer of Amscot, however once in a…read moregreat while I find myself in need of their Notary services. There is always one on duty in Amscot's so keep that in mind if you do need one. Now having said that I thought Wal-Mart was ground zero for uhhhh...what's a nice way of putting this....different folks. Well, Amscot is also a clubhouse for these people. No offense to anyone who uses them, they are very nice, they almost throw Tootsie-Roll candy at you and the Notary service was only $10. Money orders are free. It's a good place to go if you need these services.
