Send money via Google wallet/gmail to my VN bank acc Agribank ?

^Does anyone have experience of this? Its just a standard Agribank debit card account, or my gf has a slightly better account that can be used on-line.

It will be sent from a normal high-street UK / VISA account.

I really like the idea of not getting stiffed by Western Union/ Bank/ ATM charges.

Otherwise I don't think its possible to use the paypal way to a VN account is it?

I had to open a VN Paypal account here in Vietnam shortly after I arrived.

I now have a VN PayPal account linked to my VN bank account and a US Paypal account linked to my US bank account.

They will hit you with charges, of course, but not anywhere near as bad as the Western Union.

I hope this helps.
