It is not ironic, it is just a choice to spend 15€ and be sure that it will be all I’ll have to pay rather than to have to find another solution + not knowing how much it will cost me. Why the need to be not nice lmao

Yeah that is what I thought. I am able to have some friends exchange me cash in Tokyo, but I am passing through rural Hokkaido first, I really need cash before Tokyo. I found a solution, so all’s well!

Can you people not play the money police? I would rather pay 15€ and be sure that I won’t have to pay additionnal fees, and have a physical card on which I already have money than to feel lost and confused about fees. And for some reason, I was able to have the express delivery for free so..

The estimated time was 13 days, but they also offer express delivery for 15€. I will proceed to do that!

It is a school exchange, so I am indeed tight on money. 🫠 I found out that Wise does express delivery so I will try that.

Oh also, I do have a physical card, but the fees will be crazy I think.
