Hello, I would like to know if anyone knows anything about this. I am going back to Japan temporarily, and my cell phone is an iPhone, and I have a contract with Spectrum for an unlimited plan.
If I use my phone as it is in Japan, will the price go up ？
Should I set it to Airplane mode ？
Should I buy a SIM card after arriving in Japan ？
Thank you very much.

According to the Spectrum web site, International Roaming seems to be supported. （ I have never used it and don't really know. You may want to check directly with Spectrum to see what the specific cost will be. When I used to go to Japan, I used to buy a SIM card for Japan from Amazon, etc. before I went there. Of course, it is possible to buy a SIM card after you arrive in Japan. It all depends on you.

Spectrum's Data Roaming rate is . $ 001/mB, which is $ 10 for 1G and $ 30 for 3G, which may be a little high for those who use a lot of data.
There are some eSIM compatible data services available in Japan, such as "Ubigi" and "MOGO", which are introduced in the blog below. Of course, the service uses an eSIM, so your phone must be eSIM compatible. \모바일(If it's an iphone, XS/XS Max/XR or later model ） According to this, 3G ／ in 30 days $ with 9.

Sim cards that can be used in Japan

Question

I use a Google Fi Flexible plan for my phone. It is also available in Japan, but I am planning to use a SIM card in Japan because the data usage is not Unlimited and I only pay for what I use.

So I was doing some research and discovered that there is something called Airalo that can be used with an app without a SIM card. Has anyone used it in Japan? ？ It costs $14 for 3GB, but you don't get a Japanese phone number. The 3GB SIM card sold at airports in Japan, for example, was about 4,000 yen a few years ago, I think. The price may have gone up now, so I think Airalo is much more reasonable.

Yes, the one for that app is 3GB and the list price is $14, but there is a coupon code for a 30% discount or something like that, so it looks like it's less than $10.
https://herpromocodes.com/airalo-promo-codes

If you know where else I can buy a cheaper SIM card, or if there is a different way, please let me know. I am currently looking for a SIM card that is inexpensive and works well. By the way, I don't think I need a Japanese phone number since I have LINE.

Google Fi Flexible plan

Flexible is not unlimited data here too （ lol ）
3GB in Japan $ 10 if you have WIFI. It's cheaper to just buy a SIM and pay for the data you use in Japan
No ？ ？ ？

Google Fi Flexible is ＄ 10 for 1GB, so ＄ 30 for 3GB. But thinking about it, I would rather use a regular SIM card in Japan （ lol ） Thanks for bringing this to my attention. I usually work from home, so I don't even use 1GB. When I go to Japan, I'll be wandering around quite a bit, so I think I'll use about 3 GB. I might try Airalo. I've never used one without a SIM card though, so I'm a bit nervous. I wonder how it works with apps.

SJDummy, thanks for the information. I took a look at it. It looks pretty good. I also looked at the reviews, but some people said they couldn't use it because they couldn't get through.

I didn't know the term eSIM, and I didn't know that there are many other companies besides Airalo.

PCR test upon return to Japan

Question

  • 日本帰国時のPCR 検査

Hello, I am planning to return to Japan and would like to get a corona test at a free laboratory like the ones I have seen here to save on unnecessary expenses.
I know Nomi health is often mentioned, but is it ok to go to a place like the free PCR lab at the airport ？
or does it have to be a place that issues a form and not one that sends the results by email so that I can put it on my MYSOS? ？ Is this a problem?

Topy

I did a PCR test at Nomi health and received the results via email, which I was able to attach to MYSOS.

I received the results the next day, but I think you should do the PCR test earlier, 72 hours before, just to be safe.

It is free or paid depending on whether the topical is a tourist or a Hawaii resident.

Thank you Yuan.
I live in Hawaii.
If you know of anyone other than Nomi health who has taken the free test offered by the state of Hawaii and found Mysos to be okay, please let me know.
Thank you so much for your reply.

Please tell me if you have ever taken an online class at Santa Monica College before.

My online class starts tomorrow, but
I haven't received any notification email from my teacher to my SMC@Email.
I have confirmed that I have already paid for the class via corsair connect.

Maybe I have to log in somewhere else to confirm the class?
I tried looking for it but could not find it. If you know, please let me know ！.

Although he is not a licensed attorney, he arrogantly leads his clients to believe that he is a lawyer, and then, after receiving payment, he does not respond to them and we have lost touch with him.

I will not name names here, but I know several people who have been victimized.
He is an LA resident.

Some people are in limbo or have given up because they don't know how to fight, including me.
Because of that person I am having trouble getting my visa papers etc. returned and not being able to move on.

I hope all the victims can join forces.
We only asked to make our dream of staying in the US come true.

I don't think we should leave this man alone who is using people's dreams and making many people feel insecure and in business.
There will surely be another victim.
Let's join forces ！ Please contact us.

Also, if you know of any lawyers who read this board who can help us, we would appreciate it if you could introduce us to them.

I feel like I have lost my money and my future.
I hope you will be kind to me.

That was a tough time for you. ・ ・

I think we should form a team, because it is mentally hard to be alone.
Like a victim's group.

If we mention the name of the person who absconded with the money, Bibinavi will process the deletion, so even if we use initials or something
people who know will know.

I am so sorry to hear this, Koko, you may live in Hawaii, but if the alleged perpetrator lives in LA, I think you should start a

topic in Vivinavi Los Angeles, where there may be many more victims ？
who are also victims.
I think there are more people who can share information than in Hawaii.
