In this edition of local business news, the Signarama Limerick franchise is promoting a free signage contest it hopes will interest area companies. Separately, if you relied on the Sigue Corporation for a money transmission that was never completed, you may qualify for a claim payment.
Do You Qualify for Payment in Money Transmission Case?
HARRISBURG PA – If you’re a consumer who had problems with money orders or cash transmissions involving Sigue Corporation, the Pennsylvania Department of Banking and Securities may be able to offer help. You may also qualify for a claim payment.
Sigue during March 2024 was ordered by financial regulatory agencies in Pennsylvania and 37 other states to stop doing business. In PA, the corporation was found to have violated its Money Transmitter Act. Cash sent by many users through Sigue, or who expected to receive it from Sigue, allegedly never arrived.
Sigue is now out of business, and the department has tapped into the corporation’s surety bond. That gives the state resources to pay on claims filed against the firm, it announced Tuesday (Jan. 7, 2025). Those affected, however, must file a claim online, here. For more information on filing a claims, call 1-800-722-2657.
