What is the best way to send money overseas from Singapore? Paypal and credit card excepted?

I am looking for a (relatively) fast and economical way to send money over to another party overseas. Other than Paypal and credit card, what are the best way to go about doing this? I have tried Foreign Money Order in the SingPost office, but they only remit to certain countries (the USA and UK are not included).





As for Paypal, some companies don't work with it.|||I am sorry but I am going to ask you to go back to the SingPost Office, heh.





Apart from Foreign Money Order you can also send money using Western Union Money Transfer - but you will have to check which SingPost Office has that facility - all offices don't have it. (Clementi and the one at Jurong East offers this facility.)





With Western Union Money Transfer, you can send money in less than 15 minutes!





It's slightly more expensive than TT (done through banks), but it is worth it. You go to the office, give them the money and fill a form with your details and the receiver's details, including IC/Passport number. You will receive a long number, something like a PIN.





You will send this PIN to the person you wish to send money to, and that person can go to the Western Union Money Transfer outlet in their country with proper identification and that number to receive the amount instantly.|||The Paypal credit card works for me. http://www.creditcardassociate鈥?/a>
