I did use paypal but never use Western Union before. After done a lot of research, I found that the difference between Paypal and Western Union is not much. Paypal is owned by eBay and more advertises on security issue whereas Western Union does not but you will know whom you are sending money to.

Back to 3 months ago, I made a $500 withdrawals direct to my Public Bank debit card. And I checked the bank exchange rates (USD->MYR) for that day was 3.18. The exchange rate that appeared on my credit card bill was 3.15 only. That’s an average of 0.03 differences for that transaction. This means that PayPal will straight away convert our withdrawal amount (maximum withdrawal of US$500 per day) to Ringgit at their own lower USD/MYR currency exchange rate. Besides, Paypal also charges $5 withdrawal fee.
