Kiyosumi-shirakawa Sta. — Local services in Tokyo

To sum up: the station officer at Kiyosumi-shirakawa just took the deposit money on our Pasmo cards.

I went to the Oedo line station office with my boyfriend to refund our Pasmo today at around 7 in the morning.

There was a man wearing glasses, seemed about 30 or something (didn't have a chance to get his name) and I asked him in Japanese like 'Pasmo o harai modosi kudasai(refund Pasmo card please)' I'm sure he got that we are foreigners by my poor Japanese.

Then he said okay and took those two Pasmos' and checked the value. We heard that they would give the deposit money back for each as you refund it-500yen. Not like Suica. That was actually why we chose Pasmo!

But he didn't. He gave us the value money without even showing us the receipt, and told us bye. He just took two Pasmo cards, not giving back the deposit, and not showing the receipt to clear it all. And NO one single explanation.

We were all like 'whattt?' But couldn't complain at that moment, we were losing our plane.

That would be an easy 1000yen in total for him, nice job. I hope it gave him a life.

Beware when you are at Oedo line, you might get ripped off by a government officer.

交通面に関して言うと、半蔵門線の清澄白河駅は、都心へのアクセスが良好でありながら、どこか「隠れたエリア」という感じがします。例えば、駅から徒歩圏内に行ける場所は少ないものの、東京メトロの他のラインと比べると、あまり混雑しないため、通勤や通学時のストレスは比較的少ないです。その意味では、落ち着いた生活を送りたい方にはうってつけの場所です。 駅の周辺は、いわゆる「新興エリア」といった感じの落ち着いた住宅街が広がっていて、商業施設や飲食店があまり多くないです。近年、カフェやギャラリーなどのアートスポットが増えてきていますが、都内の中でも「若干寂しさ」を感じるエリアでもあります。繁華街を求めている人には少し物足りないかも。 駅自体の施設は、やや古びていて特に週末や朝晩のラッシュ時は少し狭さを感じます。エスカレーターやエレベーターもそこまで多くなく、特に混雑している時間帯は若干不便に思うことがあるかも。これがもっとスムーズに改善されれば、かなり過ごしや...
