Night bus ride to leave the country
MJCM replied to Cuadrado's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
I guess also that many of buses coming from the North going to Bangkok (for example) are prone to checks because of the smuggling of drugs (coming from The Golden Triangle) to the Capital. Which route are you thinking of taking @Cuadrado? -
Night bus ride to leave the country
MJCM replied to Cuadrado's topic in Thai Visas, Residency, and Work Permits
The only time that I have had a passport control / check was in a night bus. This was on the Route Pattaya - Korat (which also doesn't pass near any border) Day time never, but never say never ???? -
[AIS] Enable Roaming for Calls / SMS but disable for DATA. Possible?
MJCM replied to MJCM's topic in Mobile Devices and Apps
Thx. I looked at the Battery Tab under settings and it says that the Battery can now only hold a max charge of 90%. So I guess that is also an influence? But no issues for me any more because I decided that I will be using 2 phones when I am abroad. The Phone with AIS SIM will be connected 24/7 to Wifi as it will stay at my Friends house and I will take the other phone (with the local SIM) with me when going out. -

Yeah that now I understand as well, but the drain was significant but I think it was mainly due that the Battery in my phone is not 100% any more. Good that I tested it before leaving ???? -

MJCM replied to MJCM's topic in Mobile Devices and Apps
I guess as you said, maybe because mine is an iPhone? ???? I really noticed it. It went down (with all background apps closed) something like 3% within a half an hour. But that said also the Battery is now only at 90% remaining peak capacity. Already looking for a new Phone, but no idea what to get yet. But not an issue, my friends have an old iPhone 7 which I can use and that is also the phone they tested (already bought) the new SIM card with. -

MJCM replied to MJCM's topic in Mobile Devices and Apps
I can leave the Phone with the THAI Sim at my friends house (I will be staying with them) because that phone will be just for the SMS from my Thai Banks and only take the other phone with me when I go walkabout ???? Re: Power Banks Funny story We went to Singapore a couple of years ago and I saw a 10k mAh power bank in a sale (something like half price was a real good price (even cheaper then in Thailand)). My wife said "We not need" but I bought it anyway. And in the end who is using that Power Bank the most???? Yes you guessed it right, My Wife -

MJCM replied to MJCM's topic in Mobile Devices and Apps
You can say that again, but after all that, I am glad that I removed that 2nd SIM from my Phone, those 2 sims were draining my battery. My guess I am going to take 2 phones with me or borrow an old phone from my friends and not bother with 2 Sims in one phone and thus no need to mess with the settings anymore -

Oke, but looking at the Support page from Apple I linked to doesn't seem to say that so IMHO a ????♂️ doesn't cover it but a ????♂️ maybe does ???? -

Problem seems solved (unless someone disagrees again ) have a look at this setting in my iPhone. So no need for * numbers ???? -
[AIS] Enable Roaming for Calls / SMS but disable for DATA. Possible?
MJCM replied to MJCM's topic in Mobile Devices and Apps
I have now in my Phone 2 Sims (my wife is already asking when she gets her phone back ???? ) to test and I can do a lot of tinkering with the settings and also with the Data. I went through ALL of MyAIS (the App for AIS) and the only thing I can find is how to enable or disable roaming. Nothing about Enabling / Disabling Data. My wife has now asked her daughter to call AIS and ask if it is even possible to disable DATA only for roaming. Maybe I have to do that *129 thingy, but I am still worried that it f.....s up my data connection when I coming back to Thailand. (I am on a 100GiB yearly plan with AIS) But I I have already NOW 2 options (regardless of the AIS outcome) A) Transfer most of the money to my wife's phone number and leave something like 100 THB in it. B) Use the Phone Settings to disable Data on the AIS sim (when abroad) -

Nope nothing on their website because they list their end/begin points only which is IMHO a bit confusing You could try calling their call centre 1624

And I do hope you understand that I would like confirmation of that from AIS before I am actually going to do that because I don't want it to ..... ... my data connections when I arrive back in Thailand. -
