***IMPORTANT*** THE DEPOSIT OF $1800 CANNOT BE SENT IN ONE DEPOSIT, IT NEEDS TO BE SPLIT IN TWO EQUAL DEPOSITS OF $900USD.

PLEASE NOTE THAT MONEYGRAM WILL HAVE AN FEE FOR THEIR SERVICES BUT THE FEE IS INCLUDED IN THE DEPOSITS YOU NEED TO MAKE. FOR EXAMPLE, IF THE FEE WILL BE $50/TRANSFER, YOU WILL MAKE 2 DEPOSITS OF $850USD + $50USD (FEE) = $900USD.

IMPORTANT MONEYGRAM TIPS:

1. The deposit needs to be made at an MoneyGram office, with CASH (this is the single payment method accepted).
2. You will need to have your ID with you when sending the deposit.
3. The money, USD will automatically be converted to British Pounds, don't worry, this is normal for all transactions.
4. You will need to select PICK UP BY LOCATION option, in order to make the deposit to our agent name.

*** In order to make the deposit to our agent you need to visit an MoneyGram office (you can find them in any 7-Eleven VCOM, or CVS), or you can just use their website www.moneygram.com to find an location near your address. Please note that you cannot use their website to make the deposit, you need to visit an actual office.

The next step of the transaction is to make the deposit to our company's payments representative agents.

After the payment is sent please e-mail us an copy of the MoneyGram receipt so we can process everything and ship the rental package.
