Hello, I am from the Philippines. I am doing freelance work in GAF. I have a client from Pakistan who would be paying me through Postal Money Order. Unfortunately, I do not have any experience receiving money through Postal Money Order. He said he would go to his Post Office and the money would be here in 30 minutes. I emailed our PhilPost but unfortunately my email was returned because their servers have exceeded the quota. a.) How can I receive the Postal Money Order from Pakistan to the Philippines? b.) Do I receive the Postal Money Order in cash or check? c.) Do I get any form of notification, mail or telegram, informing that the Postal Money Order is available? Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

hello..postal money order i think it was a check...that you can change it..thru post office..actually you can go to the bigger post office and maybe you will have a postal ID..or maybe you can ask the sender to send it to you by moneygram and this is more convient you can get it thru bank or any authorized moneygram member..by 30 minute as long as you have the reference or code number ..hope it helps

I said that he could send the money thru Western Union or MoneyGram. Postal Money Order is a bit outdated and I haven't tried it myself. The thing is - the nearest Western Union office is 200 kilometers away from his place. Hopefully, I can sort things out with him.

Unfortunately, he does not have a PayPal account. He says he does not even have a credit card. That's the reason why he would pay me through Postal Money Order.
