Anyone else get this message?


Error

There was a problem sending your money.

Don't worry, your funding source hasn't been charged and the recipient hasn't been notified


I was trying to send $750 for "rent"

Yes, I got that from Chase, who denied a $1000 charge. A simple call to them explaining it was really me who tried to make the charhge allowed it to go through

How does one enable the google wallet send money feature?

And can you have two emails with the same SSN and send money between them?

someone has to send you money who has the service, I would not advise setting up two accounts with the same SSN, send it to a friend.

It's not an email, it's a popup within my gmail when I try to initiate the payment. Anyone else?

I cleared a 90 dollar payment, just tried a 900 payment.

The last two uses of my amex business gold on google wallet for a nexus 4 and a conference my wife is attending both earned double points for the Advertising category so hoping these transfers work for 2x points too.

Let us know if bonus points posted.

This could be huge.

How long does the promo period last?

I just got signed up for GW and per their Help Center, there is a 2.9% fee for CC payments. What am I missing?

Fees

It's free to send money directly from your bank account or using your Google Wallet Balance. There's a flat fee of 2.9% per transaction (minimum $0.30) to send money using a credit or debit card. Receiving money is always free regardless of the funding source the sender chooses.

You will see the waiver before you send money when you are doing the transaction

I was able to send $375 today. Just from reading around, it looks like larger transactions are either denied or reviewed.

I think thats possible and worth a shot, what amex charges as a category has nothing to do with chase, it could be totally different.

My fiancée has a gmail account but not Google Wallet. She's not into points manufacturing. Can I send her money to her gmail account?
