Hi everyone!
Last month I had to withdraw some money from my bank account in my home country to pay initial fees when moving to a new apartment. I wanted to withdraw ¥70000 at once only to find that the limit for foreign cards was reduced to ¥50000 at once (apparently because of some stupid fraud with foreign cards earlier this year). You can still withdraw ¥50000 and then another ¥50000 immediately after that, so in terms of fraud protection, I don't see any improvement, but I see massive drop in convenience.
I can withdraw from an ATM abroad once a month without any fee and that's what I meant to do only to find I can't anymore.
I plan to transfer some more money from my account in my home country to my Japanese account so I'd like to withdraw as much as possible at once to keep the fees at the minimum. That's why I'd like to know if there still is any known way to withdraw more than ¥50000 at once. I used Seven Ginko ATM last time and Japan Post ATMs halved the limit too, apparently.
Any suggestion is very welcome!
