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.
