Used BigPay and withdrew from Seven ATM, only RM 10 per withdrawal, no extra charges. Moreover, BP has super good exchange rate, must utilize it.
I suggest you to bring some Yen along and withdraw while you are there. Japan is still a cash society, just prepare for emergency.

Well, I didn't use a single cent of Euro in cash when I travelled on my Europe trips, can't say and do the same for Japan.

Do we need to enable overseas ATM withdrawal on BP before that ?

Furthermore on the 7ATM, does it only dispense JPY or also our local currency ? Just to make sure what to expect hmm.gif

What the...? An ATM that can spit out whatever foreign currency that you want? I wanna see that one. Never knew Japan has advanced to such a stage.

maybe gotten the statement slightly wrong.. you know where we transact through the cc terminals and they'd ask us to follow RM rates or JPY rates ? just wondering if that would also appear on the ATM machine..

sorry for the confusion and dragging on this off topic too long doh.gif notworthy.gif

Has anyone tried to courier their excess luggage (e.g clothings) from JP back to MY ? unsure.gif

Just wondering if we’re going to be taxed despite it’s our used clothings ?
