SISmooth, fast and professional service, worthy of a real and honest review I feel a moral duty to inform other website visitors that the site is completely legal and authentic. In fact I was really scared because of some negative reviews here at Trustpilot. The site completely fulfills its mission and provides the advertised service - it sells vouchers for Japan Rail Passes, foreigners are supposed to exchange for the real ones, when they arrive in Japan. This is a standard procedure for non-Japanese residents. I bought 2 vouchers on May 17th. The next day I was informed they were handed to FedEx. On May 18th I received them in my mailbox. So... no problems. Everything was exceptional. Besides that... the page is full of useful and informative articles. Highly reccomend.

AUIgnoring me and Misinformation on the activation date Misinformation on the activation date The website states that it can be purchased 180 days in advance. since my travel date was more than 3 months after the purchase date. I wanted to take advantage of the current pricing before the price increase in October. I emailed their customer support and received confirmation that this was possible and was told to contact them back to change the date once I made my purchase. As soon as I finished my transaction I sent an email and asked to change the activation date. I didn't hear back for a few days, so I sent another email. 3 days later no reply stil and reading similar reviews!!!, how do I get a refund when you ignore me!

AUAwful shady practices Awful. Website says if you spend over $880, you get up to 50% discount on your shipping price. Despite this we paid the full $23 for shipping to Australia. They email me days later saying they’ve put my order on hold because they decided it costs an ADDITIONAL $45 to be shipped. $68 shipping total when I already spent $1100. Ridiculous. Cancelled my order and bought it from Klook where it was $97 less that JRPass, and that was before their awful bull crap extra shipping charges.

GBHighly Recommend (July 2022) I used JRpass.com in July 2022 to obtain 4 adult Japan Rail passes. The entire process went very smoothly, from order through delivery. We received the passes in the mail in the US in just a few days, with frequent notifications as the process advanced. The process for exchanging the pass at Narita airport was very straightforward. I highly recommend using this site!

CAUseless scam I purchased the pass for myself and my daughter before our trip to Japan, I requested the pass to be shipped to our hotel in Tokyo, the pass was delayed and didn’t arrive till 4 days into our stay in Tokyo, when contacted JRPASS they advised I contact FedEx and inquire about there whereabouts of the passes!!! As a customer in a foreign country I had to make phone calls to fedex to try and have the passes delivered before we leave Tokyo to Osaka. All and all the JRPass useless, extremely overpriced and not necessary at all, in my opinion buying it was a scam. I contacted the JRPass and expressed the above and requested a refund due to their failures, they brushed off my request. The pass doesn’t give you 30% of what it promises! Don’t buy it! But your daily passes as you go and forget about this scam!
