 |
|
I've got an old credit card from when I lived in Japan that I just cancelled and want to pay off. As I won't be back in Japan for a few months, I need to transfer my final payment to the bank's account in Japan.
I'm with KEB and have done a transfer to my Canadian account before but it was much more frustrating and time-consuming than it needed to be. Also, as it's only about 150,000 won, I'd like to know if I have any other (cheaper) options to pay it. But if I do decide to go through KEB, does it verify the name of the account that you enter so you're sure you're sending it to the right account?
Any suggestions?
Thanks |

The easiest way would be a cashiers check (money order) - assuming you can actually make a payment that way.
Alternatively, a bank wire but you need the receivers information.
I don't know if you can make a direct, over the counter C/C payment to an out-of-country C/C from a bank in Korea - even with your bill.
