I'm in Tokyo, specifically Hatsudai. I've run out of cash and the cash machines around here don't take mastercard. Neither does the train ticket office. I've got a suica (travel) card but that has hardly any balance. Need to get to Narita airport in about 5 hours.
Is there a way out of this that isn't a £150 uber?
Find a 711. 7 Bank ATMs take foreign MasterCard.
Hotel reception will change money ....
Some ATMs don't ... some do ...
if missing your flight is going to cost you more than £150, then uber?

I'm confused. Do you not have enough cash to draw from a current account to pay for ticket, or no card with which to do so?
You're stuffed. You'll have to train as a ninja and roam the streets of Tokyo as a vigilante, scraping together the cash to get home. Keep us posted.
Try selling your used underclackers to a Japanese businessman, I read somewhere they like that sort of thing
Many automatic teller machines (ATMs) in Japan do not accept credit, debit and ATM cards, which are issued outside of Japan.The big exception are the ATMs found at the over 20,000 post offices and over 10,000 7-Eleven convenience stores across the country. These ATMs allow you to withdraw cash by credit and debit cards issued outside of Japan, including Visa, Plus, Mastercard, Maestro, Cirrus, American Express and JCB cards and provide an English user menu.
Hire a car through your hotel? Get hotel to charge you to top up?
Get someone to transfer some cash on to your card?
You need Yen!
In case anyone still cares... after some googling found a family mart that was just the other side of the station, got the cash for the train tickets and got to the airport. Soz for shit story 😀
Had a card that had cash on it, couldn't find an ATM that would accept it.
In an Airbnb so no reception to help out.
We were beginning to think you'd walked home.
Disappointing story iz disappointing
Phew. I've hardly slept all week for worrying.
Did you find the testicle?
Man, and I've just got off the train at Hatsudai to make sure you're ok - don't I feel an idiot. 🙁
All balls intact 😀
pondo I recommend the robot restaurant in Shinjuku while you are there!
