I've got a few payments that I need to continue to make while in Japan (and no one in the US that I'd trust to make them for me).

Does anyone have a Citibank account that they opened in the US and now use in Japan? Do you transfer yen from your employer set-up bank account to this citibank account? Is it a hassle, or even worth it?

Also, can you make ATM deposits at Citibank in Japan?

Thanks!

I used to send traveler's checks every month to pay off bills. It was a big hassle but it worked for me.

Cheers,

You can set up an online payment account and pay your bills that way. I did that when I lived in Australia.

My ex who is still living out there still uses his US creditcards and pays all bills online. The difference is that his parents are still out here feeing money into his account, so I don't know whether he deposits money or not, but most definitely he takes money outta the account in AU dollars.
