The easiest and quickest way to send money home from Japan

The easiest and quickest way to send money home from Japan is to set up an account through Lloyds of London. The Go Lloyds account takes a little time to set up but once you have set up an account you can send money home directly through any ATM in Japan and it usually takes 1-2 business days to arrive. There is a small fee that is applied to the receiving bank (around $8) and the exchange rates used are usually 1-2 cents higher through Lloyds. The other alternative is via the post office but I have found this inefficient and difficult at times. The post office money transfer can take several weeks to arrive and in one instance I had my money arrive via London to Australia more than a month after sending it. Used at your own peril.
