Rated 4 out of 5 stars

Overall OK. But recently, I have been noticing a delay in the transfer of money to the destination account. Which makes me go to other parties like XOOM, where the money gets transferred immediately.

It was good and very flexible. I got the opportunity to change the receiver's name which I placed by accident. My only problem with Ria is they don't give you a promo code discount like MoneyGram! I... See more

The ease of using the app to send money overseas is really remarkable. I feel the service would get better rating with lower transfer fee though.

Easy interface. But it would've ben great 5/5 if it allowed us to use a bank account for payment rather than restricting us to credit/debit card.

The whole process was terrible. TERRIBLE!

The whole process was terrible. They say "the transactions are normally sent in 15 minutes" but when I placed a transaction it took more than 48 hours and the money still hasn't arrived while I am writing this. I reached out the customer support and everything when I try to explain myself they say the problem is because of the recipients bank. BUT HELL NO! I have placed three different transactions alongside RIA the others arrived within a minute but RIA wants me to wait 48 hours or more. Now it is going to be holiday and the banks will be closed. The whole process was terrible, I WOULD NEVER EVER EVER use this app. I suggest you to do the same. No blames on customer care agents btw. They are doing their job but the company, the whole process is TERRIBLE. The worst I have ever experienced so far.

If it would be possible to leave a lower rating it would still be giving them too much credit. I sent my mother money. She received the notification saying it was ready. Once she arrived she was told they didn’t have the money and had no idea when it would be available. My only option was to cancel and wait a week for my money to be returned.
