1. Before your trip, enable 'Overseas Withdrawal' in your banking app

"That last part was spot on. Make sure to choose yen, not ringgit. You'll get charged an extra 4% if you choose ringgit," one commenter said.
"Their ATMs make nice sounds. Unlike our ATMs, which sound like vital signs monitors in hospitals, perfectly matched to the dying balance in our accounts," another joked.
