In Japan, there are three credit institutions.<\/p>\n\n<ol>\n\t<li>When bills accumulated without payment, negative information is recorded in these institutions. To the letter, this process is called accidental information (Jiko Jouhou \/ 事故 情報)that are inserted between the trusted information (Shinyou Jouhou\/信用 情報) of the user.<\/li>\n\t<li>In most cases, you can seek a lawyer, negotiate the debt and pay it in a few months or years. However, even after the full settlement of the amounts, the negative information remains recorded for at least five years. That is, if you pay back the payment in three years, you will still have the dirty name for another two years.<\/li>\n\t<li>Only in the case of financial loans is there the possibility of clearing the name earlier. If you get it right you can have the negative information taken from your record after one year from the end of the payment. However, if the debt is credit card, forget that because your name will remain dirty in the next five years or more, depending on the case.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n&nbsp;<\/p>\n","image_url":"https:\/\/www.japasim.com\/datafiles\/42684\/upload\/images\/Tutorials\/general%20rules.png","image_thumb_url":"https:\/\/www.japasim.com\/datafiles\/42684\/upload\/thumb_images\/Tutorials\/general%20rules.png","tags":["rules of service"],"count_view":223,"seo_name":"general-rules","date_update":1690796764,"date_created_format":1692531952,"meta_title":"General rules of our services","meta_desc":"General rules of our services","meta_keyword":"General rules of our services","qr_code":"https:\/\/www.japasim.com\/general-rules"},{"id":602916,"name":"How to pay monthly payment by bank transfer","desc":"Monthly payment by bank transfer<\/p>\n","content":"HOW TO PAY MONTHLY PAYMENT BY BANK TRANSFER<\/strong><\/u><\/p>\n\n<img alt=\"\" src=\"\/datafiles\/42684\/upload\/images\/Tutorials\/bank transfer.png\" \/><\/p>\n\n&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n&nbsp;<\/p>\n","image_url":"https:\/\/www.japasim.com\/datafiles\/42684\/upload\/images\/Tutorials\/icon_bank.png?t=1753041651","image_thumb_url":"https:\/\/www.japasim.com\/datafiles\/42684\/upload\/thumb_images\/Tutorials\/icon_bank.png?t=1753041222","tags":["pay by banking"],"count_view":268,"seo_name":"how-to-pay-monthly-payment-by-bank-transfer","date_update":1690796764,"date_created_format":1692530248,"meta_title":"how to pay by banking","meta_desc":"how to pay by banking","meta_keyword":"how to pay by banking","qr_code":"https:\/\/www.japasim.com\/how-to-pay-monthly-payment-by-bank-transfer"},{"id":602915,"name":"How to pay monthly payment at combini","desc":"Monthly payment by smartpit at Lawson or Familymart<\/p>\n","content":"1.

That &quot;&yen;3,000 per month&quot; plan somehow becomes &yen;6,000 on your first bill, and you&#39;re left wondering what went wrong.<\/span><\/em><\/span><\/p>\n\nLet&#39;s break down how mobile pricing actually works in Japan, so you can make smart decisions without getting caught off guard.<\/span><\/em><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n\n<h2 level=\"2\" style=\"text-align: justify;\">Why Your Bill Is Higher Than Expected<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n\n<input alt=\"\" src=\"\/datafiles\/42684\/upload\/files\/__thumbs\/phone%20bill.jpg\/phone%20bill__800x533.jpg\" type=\"image\" \/><\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n\nThe advertised price is rarely what you&#39;ll actually pay each month. Japanese mobile carriers structure their pricing in layers, and each layer adds to your total cost.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n\nYour monthly bill typically includes the base plan fee, plus device payments if you bought a phone, plus network access fees, plus any optional services you agreed to (sometimes without realizing it), plus taxes. When a store employee quickly runs through a contract in Japanese, it&#39;s easy to miss these additional charges.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n\n<samp>Take device payments, for example. Most carriers spread the cost of a new phone over 24 to 36 months, adding &yen;1,000 to &yen;2,500 to your monthly bill. Insurance coverage, which employees often present as &quot;recommended,&quot; adds another &yen;500 to &yen;800 monthly. Network access fees, which sound technical and unavoidable, typically cost &yen;300 to &yen;500 per month.<\/span><\/span><\/samp><\/p>\n\n<h2 level=\"2\" style=\"text-align: justify;\">The Real Numbers<\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/h2>\n\n<input alt=\"\" src=\"\/datafiles\/42684\/upload\/files\/__thumbs\/number.jpg\/number__800x500.jpg\" type=\"image\" \/><\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n\nLet&#39;s look at what a typical foreign resident might actually pay. You see an unlimited data plan advertised for &yen;3,000 per month and think that sounds reasonable. But here&#39;s how your actual monthly cost breaks down: the base plan costs &yen;3,000, device installments add &yen;1,500, insurance adds &yen;500, and network fees add &yen;300. Your actual <\/strong>monthly cost becomes &yen;5,300 before taxes.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n\nIf you occasionally exceed your data limits or make international calls, expect additional charges. Data overage fees can range from &yen;500 to &yen;2,000 per month, depending on your usage. International calling features often cost extra too, even though many foreign residents need to call home regularly.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n\n<h2 level=\"2\" style=\"text-align: justify;\">Why It&#39;s Harder for Foreign Residents<\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/h2>\n\n<input alt=\"\" src=\"\/datafiles\/42684\/upload\/files\/foreigner.jpg\" type=\"image\" \/><\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n\nLanguage barriers make everything more complicated. Contracts are primarily written in Japanese, with technical terms that even fluent speakers sometimes find confusing. Store employees might speak some English, but complex pricing discussions often get lost in translation. Important details about fees or restrictions might not be clearly communicated.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n\nThe documentation requirements can also be challenging. Most carriers require a Japanese bank account for automatic payments, proof of residency, and sometimes employment verification. Some carriers even require a Japanese guarantor, which can be difficult for newcomers to arrange.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n\nCultural differences play a role too. Long-term contracts are standard in Japan, unlike the month-to-month flexibility common in many other countries. Making changes to your plan often requires visiting a physical store during business hours, which can be inconvenient if you work traditional hours.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n\n<h2 level=\"2\" style=\"text-align: justify;\">Questions That Will Save You Money<\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/h2>\n\n<input alt=\"\" src=\"\/datafiles\/42684\/upload\/files\/__thumbs\/save.jpg\/save__800x533.jpg\" type=\"image\" \/><\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n\nBefore signing any contract, ask about the total monthly cost<\/strong> including all required fees. Don&#39;t just accept the base plan price. Ask what happens if you exceed your data limit<\/strong> and how much those charges might be. Find out about early termination fees <\/strong>if your plans change.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n\nAsk about customer service availability in English and whether you can manage your account online without visiting stores. Understand what documentation you&#39;ll need and whether there are alternatives if you don&#39;t have a Japanese bank account yet.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n\nGet cost projections for different scenarios. What would you pay if you stayed for one year? Two years? What if you needed to cancel early?<\/em> Having these numbers upfront helps you make better decisions.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n\n<h2 level=\"2\" style=\"text-align: justify;\">Making Smart Decisions<\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/h2>\n\n<input alt=\"\" src=\"\/datafiles\/42684\/upload\/files\/__thumbs\/call.png\/call__800x441.png\" type=\"image\" \/><\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n\nCalculate the total cost over your expected time in Japan, not just the monthly fee. Include setup costs, potential overage charges, and early termination risks. A slightly more expensive plan with no contract might cost less overall if you&#39;re not sure how long you&#39;ll stay.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n\nConsider your actual usage patterns. If you mainly use Wi-Fi and don&#39;t need unlimited data, a smaller plan might save you money. If you travel frequently within Japan, make sure your plan includes good coverage outside major cities.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n\nThink about your support needs too. Paying a bit more for English customer service might be worth it if you prefer handling issues in your native language. Some carriers offer online chat support in multiple languages, which can be more convenient than visiting stores.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n\n<h2 level=\"2\" style=\"text-align: justify;\">Red Flags to Watch For<\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/h2>\n\n<input alt=\"\" src=\"\/datafiles\/42684\/upload\/files\/red.jpg\" type=\"image\" \/><\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n\nBe cautious if sales staff pressure you to decide immediately or seem reluctant to explain costs clearly. If you can&#39;t get straight answers about total monthly costs or early termination fees, consider looking elsewhere.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n\nWatch out for &quot;bundled&quot; services that you might not need. Sometimes carriers include streaming services or other add-ons that increase your monthly cost without providing much value to you personally.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n\n<h2 level=\"2\" style=\"text-align: justify;\">Bottom Line<\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/h2>\n\nUnderstanding mobile plan costs in Japan requires looking beyond the advertised price to see the complete picture. Take time to ask questions, compare your options, and choose based on your specific needs and length of stay.&nbsp;<\/span><\/span>The good news is that once you understand how the system works, you can find plans that work well for your situation.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n\nRemember, you have options. Don&#39;t let language barriers or unfamiliar systems pressure you into a plan that doesn&#39;t fit your needs or budget. Take your time, ask questions, and choose what works best for your life in Japan.<\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n","image_url":"https:\/\/www.japasim.com\/datafiles\/42684\/upload\/files\/OK%281%29.png","image_thumb_url":"https:\/\/www.japasim.com\/datafiles\/42684\/upload\/thumb_files\/OK%281%29.png","tags":["japan mobile fee","japan sim","japan call sim"],"count_view":385,"seo_name":"understanding-mobile-plan-costs-in-japan-a-guide-for-foreign-residents","date_update":1750872679,"date_created_format":1748541168,"meta_title":"Hidden Fee Japan Call SIM","meta_desc":"Hidden Fee Japan Call SIM","meta_keyword":"Hidden Fee Japan Call SIM","qr_code":"https:\/\/www.japasim.com\/understanding-mobile-plan-costs-in-japan-a-guide-for-foreign-residents"},{"id":694595,"name":"A Food Lover's Guide to Japan's Local Markets","desc":"In a country renowned for its culinary excellence, Japan&#39;s local markets stand as living museums of food culture&mdash;vibrant spaces where tradition meets daily life.<\/p>\n","content":"Beyond the glossy department store food halls and tourist-filled streets lies the beating heart of Japanese cuisine: neighborhood markets where locals have shopped for generations.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n\n<h1 level=\"2\">Why Local Markets Matter<\/strong><\/span><\/h1>\n\n<input alt=\"\" src=\"\/datafiles\/42684\/upload\/files\/__thumbs\/1(2).jpg\/1(2)__799x600.jpg\" type=\"image\" \/><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n\nJapanese markets aren&#39;t just places to buy ingredients&mdash;they&#39;re cultural institutions.

Whether you&#39;re working remotely from a caf&eacute;, navigating with Google Maps, or just streaming a video on a long train ride, running out of power is not<\/em> an option.<\/p>\n","content":"The good news? You don&rsquo;t have to just accept bad battery life. Here&rsquo;s how to stretch your pocket WiFi&rsquo;s battery life and avoid the dreaded &ldquo;low battery&rdquo; warning when you need it most.<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n\n1. Reduce the Screen Brightness<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n\nIt&rsquo;s easy to forget that your Pocket WiFi even has a screen&mdash;until it lights up every time you check the signal strength. But just like your phone, that little screen eats battery.<\/span><\/em><\/span><\/p>\n\n<div style=\"background: rgb(238, 238, 238); border: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); padding: 5px 10px; text-align: justify;\">✅ Lower the brightness<\/strong> if your device allows it. \n⏳ Set the screen timeout<\/strong> to the shortest possible duration. \n???? Less screen time = longer battery life!<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n\n2. Turn Off Unused Features<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n\nMost Pocket WiFi units have both 2.4GHz<\/strong> and 5GHz<\/strong> bands. The 5GHz connection is faster, but it also drains the battery quicker.<\/span><\/em><\/span><\/p>\n\n<div style=\"background: rgb(238, 238, 238); border: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); padding: 5px 10px; text-align: justify;\">⚡ If you&rsquo;re just browsing or using chat apps, stick to 2.4GHz<\/strong> for better energy efficiency. \n???? Some devices have WPS (WiFi Protected Setup)<\/strong> enabled by default&mdash;turn it off unless you need it.<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n\n3. Use Sleep Mode (or Turn It Off When Idle)<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n\nMany Pocket WiFi models have a sleep mode<\/strong> that automatically powers down when no devices are connected. If yours has it, enable it!<\/strong><\/span><\/em><\/span><\/p>\n\n<div style=\"background: rgb(238, 238, 238); border: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); padding: 5px 10px; text-align: justify;\">???? If you&rsquo;re taking a break or not using WiFi, turn it off manually<\/strong> to save power. \n???? Avoid wasting battery keeping the connection active when you&rsquo;re not even using it!<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n\n4. Watch Out for Overcharging<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n\nLeaving your Pocket WiFi plugged in all night? Not a good idea.<\/strong><\/span><\/em><\/span><\/p>\n\n<div style=\"background: rgb(238, 238, 238); border: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); padding: 5px 10px; text-align: justify;\">???? Lithium-ion batteries don&rsquo;t like staying at 100% charge for too long. \n⏳ Unplug once it reaches 80-90%<\/strong> to keep the battery healthy. \n⚡ If possible, avoid using your Pocket WiFi while charging<\/strong>&mdash;it generates heat and reduces long-term battery life.<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n\n5. Carry a Power Bank (Because You&rsquo;ll Need It Eventually)<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n\nEven with all the battery-saving tricks in the world, sometimes you&rsquo;ll still run out of juice. That&rsquo;s where a good power bank<\/strong> comes in.<\/span><\/span><\/em><\/p>\n\n<div style=\"background: rgb(238, 238, 238); border: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); padding: 5px 10px; text-align: justify;\">???? A 5,000mAh power bank<\/strong> is usually enough for 2-3 full charges. \n???? Look for a dual-output power bank<\/strong> so you can charge both your phone and WiFi at the same time. \n???? If you travel a lot, a high-capacity 10,000mAh+ power bank<\/strong> is worth the investment.<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n\n6. Check Your Charging Cable and Adapter<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n\nIf your Pocket WiFi is charging slower than usual, the problem might not be the device&mdash;it could be the cable or adapter<\/strong>.<\/span><\/span><\/em><\/p>\n\n<div style=\"background: rgb(238, 238, 238); border: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); padding: 5px 10px; text-align: justify;\">????️ Use the original charging cable<\/strong> whenever possible. \n⚡ A 10W or 12W adapter<\/strong> charges faster than a basic 5W one. \n???? If your cable looks frayed or bent, replace it ASAP<\/strong>&mdash;a faulty cable can slow charging or even damage your device.<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n\n7. Limit the Number of Connected Devices<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n\nMore devices = more power drain. If you&rsquo;re sharing WiFi with multiple people, expect the battery to drop faster<\/strong>.<\/span><\/span><\/em><\/p>\n\n<div style=\"background: rgb(238, 238, 238); border: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); padding: 5px 10px; text-align: justify;\">????

Store It in a Cool Place<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n\nHeat is battery life&rsquo;s worst enemy<\/strong>. If your Pocket WiFi overheats, the battery degrades faster.<\/span><\/span><\/em><\/p>\n\n<div style=\"background:#eeeeee;border:1px solid #cccccc;padding:5px 10px;\">???? Avoid leaving it in a hot car<\/strong> or direct sunlight<\/strong>. \n???? Keep it in a ventilated bag or pocket<\/strong>, not stuffed in a tight, heat-trapping space. \n❄️ If your device feels warm, let it cool down<\/strong> before charging.<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n\n9. Restart Your Pocket WiFi Regularly<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n\nEver noticed your phone slowing down when it hasn&rsquo;t been restarted in a while? The same thing happens to Pocket WiFi devices.<\/span><\/span><\/em><\/p>\n\n<div style=\"background: rgb(238, 238, 238); border: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); padding: 5px 10px; text-align: justify;\">♻️ Restart your device every few days<\/strong> to clear background processes. \n⚙️ A reboot helps keep it running efficiently and prevents unnecessary power drain<\/strong>.<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n\n✨✨✨<\/span><\/p>\n\nA Pocket WiFi is only as good as its battery life.

However, beneath the modern facade lies a deep-rooted tradition where the natural world and the spirit realm are intricately intertwined. Whispers of the unseen can be felt in ancient temples, serene forests, and bustling cityscapes. This goes beyond mere ghost stories. Japan&#39;s essence is closely tied to the belief in spirits, from the benevolent kami of Shintoism to the mischievous yokai of folklore.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n\nKami: Nature&#39;s Divine Presence<\/span><\/b><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n\nShinto, Japan&#39;s native religion, forms the foundation of this spiritual connection. Shintoists worship kami - spirits that represent the essence of everything, from the majestic Mount Fuji to the fleeting cherry blossom. A Shinto shrine is not just a place of worship; it&#39;s a sacred space where humans can commune with the kami.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n\n<input alt=\"\" src=\"\/datafiles\/42684\/upload\/files\/__thumbs\/Kami.jpg\/Kami__800x450.jpg\" type=\"image\" \/><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n\nThe torii gates at shrine entrances symbolize a transition from the ordinary to the divine. Inside, elaborate rituals are performed to honor the kami, with offerings of sake, rice, and prayers for blessings and harmony.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n\nThe variety of kami mirrors the diversity of the natural world. There are kami of mountains, rivers, forests, and even wind and thunder. Inari, the kami of rice and prosperity, is often depicted as a fox, leading to the tradition of fox statues at Shinto shrines. Local kami are also revered as protectors of specific communities and landmarks. This deep reverence for nature, nurtured by Shinto beliefs, is a fundamental aspect of Japanese culture.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n\n<input alt=\"\" src=\"\/datafiles\/42684\/upload\/files\/__thumbs\/Inari.jpg\/Inari__800x448.jpg\" type=\"image\" \/><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n\n&nbsp;<\/p>\n\nYokai: The Enchanting and Eerie<\/span><\/b><\/span><\/p>\n\nWhile kami are generally seen as benevolent beings, Japanese folklore is filled with stories of yokai - a captivating array of supernatural creatures. Unlike the clear-cut good versus evil in Western mythology, yokai can be both mischievous and helpful.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n\n<input alt=\"\" src=\"\/datafiles\/42684\/upload\/files\/__thumbs\/Yokai.jpeg\/Yokai__800x382.jpeg\" type=\"image\" \/><\/p>\n\nTanuki, the playful raccoon dog, is a popular figure known for its love of sake and shapeshifting abilities.

Even today, the concepts of kami and yokai continue to influence Japanese life in subtle yet profound ways.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n\nFestivals<\/span><\/b><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n\nJapan hosts vibrant festivals throughout the year to celebrate the seasons and the bond between humans and kami. From cherry blossom viewing to fox parades honoring Inari, these events showcase the enduring belief in the spirit world.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n\n<input alt=\"\" src=\"\/datafiles\/42684\/upload\/files\/foxparade2.jpg\" type=\"image\" \/><\/p>\n\nFox Statues<\/span><\/b><\/span><\/p>\n\nInari shrines feature statues of foxes, symbolizing Inari&#39;s connection to these creatures.
