options from wells fargo to send money here

9 years ago
I understand that you would like to receive funds from your Wells Fargo account while you are outside the United States. To receive funds while abroad you have the following options:

- You may write a paper check from your Wells Fargo account and present
it at a local financial institution.

- If you have a debit card linked to your Wells Fargo checking account, you may request an over-the-counter cash disbursement advance from your
account using your card at a local financial institution (fees may
apply).

- Customers in certain countries can request a check in foreign currency
to be mailed to them. For more information about the Foreign Draft Service, please call us at 1-800-678-4653, option 3. Bankers are available to assist you Monday through Friday from 5:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., Pacific Time. You may also visit our website at
wellsfargo.com/foreign-exchange/index .

- If you have an international account at another financial institution, you can have your local financial institution issue a letter to Wells Fargo at the address below, requesting funds to be sent as a collection
into your international account. The letter will need to include your notarized signature and the International Swift Code of the receiving institution.

If you choose to have a letter issued, please write to:

Wells Fargo Bank
Exception Payments MAC P6102-05B
P.O. Box 3055
Portland, OR 97208

For overnight mail, please send to:

Wells Fargo Bank
Attn: Exception Payments
MAC P6102-05B
350 SW Jefferson St DP5
Portland, OR 97201

Notarizations by a foreign notary cannot be accepted. You may obtain a notarization from a U.S. Embassy or Consulate, or a legal signature confirmation (known as an Apostille Guarantee) from a government agency

You can call Wells Fargo toll-free from most locations outside of the
United States. To find the International Access Code, please visit wellsfargo.com/per/int_access_codes for the International Access Code list and calling instructions.

I tried the personal check but the employees at the bank were confused and said no to me. Back to the drawing board!
