- Do most ATMs take foreign cards?
- Are most ATMs in English?
- If I bring some 10k bills are they going to be usable? For example in the States most places won't/can't break a $100 bill and even a $50 is too high some places.
- Does anyone have a recommendation for a good bank to use in Japan from the States? My bank has some very high fees.
Thank you all for your help! |
I had no problem with 10K yen bills. Postal office have ABM that accept international bank card, some suggested that Citibank also has these machine. And yes they do have an option for "English"
