Are there any Western Union or Moneygram facilities in Doha?

By Besty

Can anyone advise me if there are any offices or facilities with Western Union or Moneygram in Doha? If so where they are (I'll be working in West Bay)...........and if there are not, what facilities are there to transfer money (I won't have a bank account until a few weeks after I arrive)

Thanks in advance

I thought the purpose of this site was to provide assistance.......perhaps I was incorrect but thanks to those who provided a less than sarcastic response.

I did actually go onto both Moneygram and WU websites prior to asking the question here. WU advised the nearest facility was in Bahrain, Moneygram search did not return any facilities in Qatar.

Qatar is maybe located in the Gulf(DESERT),Newly growing country but it doesnt mean they dont have the facilities.So dont panic,have no fear coz everything is here.Depends on how you utilize them.
