throughout this video, I'm gonna be eating this lost final pace of beautiful mango would be more chief, but I'd be much he is like Like if you have no machi, it's like pounded rice and took the sticky, delicious thing.

To-infinitive

It's like a chewy sweet, but this I don't know how to make water be much, but it's pretty much just like a jelly kind of thing.

And in it are these, like pieces of mango, but they're kind of crispy.

I don't know how they've done it, but it tastes so good.

If you're watching too, you might not know who I am.

So hello, I'm Emma, and I'm from Australia Right now.

I'm living in Japan and I'm here on the working holiday visa.

The working holiday visa that you could get in Australia is six months long, but you could extend it two more times, so it could be a year, six months.

But it doesn't say that anywhere on the visa.

If you get that visa, I think it's a great things up because it gives you a lot more freedom than on the basis give you.

But it can be very restrictive because of that.

There are some things that you can't do because it just says six months for today.

I'm just gonna focus and tell you the story of my experience with banks and why you might need a bank and different banks and banks in relation to the six months Rocky holiday visa and its problems with what I do like agencies.

A lot of agencies will only pay you through your bank account if you're with a certain bank.

I thought with all the agencies from what a friend told me that they would only pay you if you weren't with a post office bank.

So my aim was to not be with the post office.

Thank That was like my main aim because then I could get direct deposit into my bank account and it would just be easy.

And yeah, I thought it would just be easy peasy, literally Japanese E.

Rule number one bank accounts don't trust everything you read on the Internet.

If you come in with a working whole day visa, that is six months or any visa that is less than a year.

You cannot go with Shin se, no matter what you read on the Internet.

A lot of places on the Internet, I found said, Oh, if you go to certain branches, if you speak to the right people, if you really convince them that you need this bank account, you can get with Shin Se And the reason I want to say is they were one of the highest rates that the most recommended, the easiest to you used most foreign a friendly online banking.

I'll just like Heck, yeah, that sounds great.

My story is I went to what I want when I because I thought, OK, that's a big branch they'll speak to it will speak English like they'll speak Foreigner.

So I went to when I I thought I will speak English.

They'll understand my situation, and they'll be helpful if not on the Internet.

It's said that the branching punky was really good to people with six month phases so good that and my other friend had mentioned Hachi.

So I was like, Yeah, I'm set one of them work.

So, you know, I got there and I was like, Oh, I need a bank account.

And they look to visit there like we can't do it.

Just that they were very certain there was no kind of I can't I don't think we can do this.

And I was like, Okay, I just really need a bank account.

And I was doing the whole like, Please help me.

Uh, the thing that you could do is you're gonna get your visa changed, get it changed to one year.

I called them by their foreign help thing and I was like, Hey, I just want to get an account.

But six months, Is there any way that I can change that?

I was like, Okay, but hates the places on the incident said that I could go with Shin Se if I just went and found the right people in the right places.

So then I went to Punky and I got there and I found out the branch in Robin Hood just completely closed down and had moved to Shibuya.

But I heard and should be are my other friend got rejected from there and she had a one year.

So when I was in Rome, Punky and I had a doctor's appointment.

So I need you like I didn't have time for the rest of the day to go out and find the banks.

I gave up that day and tomorrow I'm gonna try to Georgie, give it a final red hot guy shouldn't say.

Georgie was from a So I traveled from a home time and I go talk to Georgie and I got to the bank like, Hey, do you speak English?

I like just It's like, please, I've seen everywhere.

People on the Internet said I could do it if I went to the right places.

And they're like, Oh, you could You could change.

So it's one year Just change your visa and didn't come back here.

And the funny thing is, they don't know we're dealing with with unhappy people, so just kind of small, like okay, huh?

I call it take my visa, bill, like, Oh, I okay.

I was like, right, I can just get a post office bank account.

And so I went all the way back to when are my friend told me that he got a post office bank account at Shibuya.

Um, and he lives in your body's always like Okay, you just got any of them.

So I went to when I and I went in there and it was always just con gee just full con ge and I looked around.

I couldn't find anything that said, like, bank account.

It's something that they don't say go here to get a bank account.

They have a list of things that you could do And it was like this counters for savings or parts.

There's nothing that said, like, get a post office bank account here So into the savings account counter account I went to this Anything's counter.

I was like, Oh, hi, Can I get a bank account like hockey?

Just just give me Yu In Japanese society, you card.

And I gave it to him and I looked at the address on the back and he was like, We can't We can't give you this account like you Give me the account, please.

And he's like, Oh, you need to go to the post office closest to you.
