Then you can't acquire a bank account easily yet, well that really leaves you pretty much with options like Western Union or UPT, or maybe if you have a friend who has a bank account that will make things much more convenient!

They aren't the cheapest no, oh so they let you create an account? that's nice, well you could go to the bank and ask for your IBAN number and the bank's Swift Code and then send those to whoever is going to transfer
