Modernized
money transfer service still deficient
SANTA CLARA, Cuba September 1 (www.cubanet.org)
- Users complain that the recently modernized
service for domestic money transfers still doesn't
work as advertised.
Previously, say users, either the transfers would
get lost, or the receiving post office would not
have any cash on hand to pay it. Disputes, they
say, would usually be resolved in the government's
favor.
Now, the transfers are not timely, users say.
The problem is attributed to programmers, who
are hired on the basis of their political "reliability,"
and not their competence.
An employee said all the confusion sometimes
means that the same transfer is paid twice.
