Just curious, why would you try to sell at a lower rate as compared to an money changer.

Coz now xe.com is higher.

Citibank no longer has an atm presence in Japan due to the sale of their retail banking side to a Japanese bank. You can still use your atm to withdraw cash but you will have to pay the service charge

Do they charge for PRESTIA atm as well? I just created a citibank account for the purpose of withdrawing in Japan..

Yen dropping on XE this evening till 12.93 as now.

This noon when I was there, XE was between 13.04 to 13.10,
arcade rate was between 13.10 to 13.20.
When Yen on XE rise back I quickly change and they revert to higher rate after I changed.

Surprisingly 2 shop offering 13.10 no Queue, I guess all changing pounds.
XE 1.774, arcade 1.78.

Yen is expected to weaken further in order for Japan to increase their exports. More downside in the longer term than upside so those not leaving anytime soon should hold out changing unless you're risk averse then you can average out by changing in batches.

Definitely hold out. The yen is expected to weaken in the long run so the chance of us having a better rate is higher.

This is just my own opinion.
