Western Union resumes remittance service to Cuba after 3-month outage
Western Union confirmed on Thursday it had resumed its remittance service from the U.S. to Cuba after the system collapsed more than three months earlier, restoring a vital lifeline for Cubans and their friends and families in the U.S. Western Union said its services to Cuba had been disrupted since Jan. 28, forcing Cubans who depend on the company's money transfer system to seek alternative, and often more costly, routes for receiving money. "We understand our service is a crucial connection between those living in the U.S. and their family living in Cuba," said Rodrigo Garcia, the president of Western Union North America and Latin America.
