The Department of Posts (DoP) has launched money transfer service in 59 head post offices in the State helping Indians living abroad to “swiftly” transfer money back home.
The money transfer solutions were launched following a tie-up with the US-based Moneygram International, a senior DoP official said.
“Receiving money is simple. The person remitting the money with any of Moneygram International agent overseas will have to pass on the reference number to the receiver, who will get the money in these post offices in no time by showing any of the ID such as ration cards”, the official said.
Following head post offices here would offer the Moneygram Service — Bangalore GPO, Rajajinagar HO, Jalalhalli HO, R.T. Nagar HO, HAL II Stage HO, Basavanagudi HO, Jayanagar HO and Channapatna HO, it was noted.
