Cell Service Recommendations

Before moving to Japan I ordered SIMs for cell service through MOBAL because our time here was going to be right at a year or a few months over. I have recently learned our stay is getting extended by 18 months. So I am considering switching to a Japanese carrier with more local support, although limited English for sure. But a few do offer some call support in English. I was curious what people recommend and who they are using with the best service and support. My Japanese is limited, although I am still taking language classes. Thanks for any recommendations yall may have.

  1. LINEMO is doable from the comfort of your web browser.

    SoftBank if you are ever hoping to talk to a human being.

    Or stay with MOBAL because changing the phone number is such a PITA. They don’t port numbers.
