I'm considering buying this fast70 sim from True. To use it on my ipad. It gives 70gb of data per month. If I have youtube on all day on the ipad will 70gb be sufficient? Thank you in advance for your input.

That’s a great outcome. However, I hope the first thing you do is to turn the Find My on. With it on it it’s much easier to deal with it with it off. You just happen to be lucky.

The thing is this phone's sim does not have cellular/data connection. Meaning It doesn't have wifi on its own. With find my on, my Apple acct does see it, but only at the last position when it connected to a wifi hot spot, which usually is my ipad. In short my find can only locates this phone when it is in my possession. Out of my reach, it goes "dark." However I guess I can "brand" it as "lost" so it will be locked whenever I want to, no matter where it happens to be?

That's why you don't see any at all. So now for Unlimited data 6 month and 12 months SIM; it's DTAC 6Mbps, Truemove H 15 Mbps, NT 15Mbps and Unlimited or nothing.

 

Any update on these days as of November 2024? Thanks,

The True Fast70 I use almost only for Internet. For calling I use my Happy DTAC now for 16 years. But a refill of 100,-THB is enough money for 2-3 years calling because the most calls gone over line.

Re internet usage, from your experience, if having youtube on almost constantly all day, will the 70gb per month suffice? Do you notice any slowing down when you are on line?

Why not get a replacement SIM (for the same number). That should silence your lost SIM, for starters.

Sure, will do. Did not think of that option, actually did not know that's how lost phones/sims are dealt with. Thanks for the advice.

Once to go to your phone company you can deactivate the sim in the missing phone and your provider will issue a new sim with your old number and it will include any funds you had on the old sim.

Thanks for this info, great if I can get the old number back in use. Re find my phone, the lost phone is not showing up there, since the sim is only for calls, no cellular data, no wifi. It has only password lock and touchid lock. btw, I changed my apple ID password last night. Anything else I can do under the circumstance?

A locked phone can be answered - the next step is getting the person on the other end to understand you.

Have a Thai speaker with you.

Thanks, will try to make that arrangement. Right now I guess since the phone apps on the lost phone are not logged in at all, what can the "bad guys " do with just the phone number itself?

I think you need a 'data connection' for FindMy to work...   So if you have 'Phone call only' then I don't think you can locate it.

 

Correct. I guess I have to do some foot work, last time I had a good look at the phone was in the restroom stall at the mall. So I would eventually need to go back there and ask the lady janitor - though fat chance if it was still there for her to find it in the first place. Second place, the taxi. I might try to call the phone and supposedly the driver got it (he was a nice older man) how would he answer the phone if he can not get pass the passcode/touch id?

Can you do wi-fi calling?  Or some sort of messaging? 

the lost phone has no cellular, It will need to log onto wifi source somewhere to, say, do facetime and such. Ditto for messaging ie SMS I need to do it from a phone that has a sim card, which I do not have right now.

Once you know where your phone is (or even if you don't) you can call it, have a Thai speaker with you if you don't speak Thai, hopefully the person on the other end is decent. 

Don't they need to enter passcode/touchidcode first in order to be able to answer the call?

have you tried calling it

 see above

The phones I have with me right now have no sims. I'm thinking of going out to get sims from 7/11 but I don't think the staff will register/activate it for me?

If there are no banking apps or other financial apps on the phone,  then you need to shut down your Apple ID as a next step. If they can somehow access that, you might have trouble. Otherwise, you can only lose your phone.  In the grand scheme of things, no big deal. 

 

by shutting down you mean loggin out? from all devices

from your other device, does the phone shows on the 'find my' app?

if you mark that device as lost it's practically useless for anyone

 

better to get new sim card issued first, which will makes it easier to set up the banking apps if you kept the old number - no need to worry about banking app yet as anyone would have to geuss the pass corde, biometric to get into the phone then bank apps - hopefully you've chosen the phone pin and banking app pin to not be the same 

 

 from my "main" ipad, it shows only the other iphone I have with me right now, the one with no sim. The lost on doesn't show up, maybe I have never turned on find my device of whatever on it?

Also no bank apps on the lost phone. I have them installed but never logging on any bank app on that phone.

uh oh, I have another phone used at home (no sims) for line and such. Since I just changed apple id password, it now asked me to sign in again, and then asked for verification code that comes out on my "main" ipad for two factor authentication. I entered the code I got from the ipad onto this phone and it says  incorrect code. I re entered the code and again, incorrect. Now I'm afraid to do it a 3rd less I get locked out on this phone. This one does have one bank app.

- Open 'FindMy' (link below) and sign in with your iCloud account - the App will tell you immedately where your phone is. 

https://www.icloud.com/find/

 

Though you said you don't know how to use Apples 'findmy web page' its just that simple. 

 

Thus: if you remember your  iCloud LogIn and Password you can find out where your phone is. 

Then you can 'erase' the device (if you have concerns of data theft etc - its seems you are not too concerned).

 

 

Once you know where your phone is (or even if you don't) you can call it, have a Thai speaker with you if you don't speak Thai, hopefully the person on the other end is decent. 

 

 

I did that, however in manage devices the lost phone is not listed (what happened?)

btw the sim card used in that phone is a prepaid sim card for phone call only, no internet. I just changed the password of my Apple ID that has probably been logged onto that phone. Also I can not call bank center due to not having the phone to tell them to disconnect the lost sim number.

Probably first thing in the morning is going to the mall to physically report to the banks. And also to get a new sim to use on an old windows phone (sad....) But for now I don't know what else I can do?

I probably left my phone somewhere around the mall early this evening, or it might have dropped out of my pocket inside the taxi on the way home. I only used it for the sim card, no banking or monetary app opened on it. I guess in the ios ecosystem, it is connected via find my iphone feature with other ipads/iphones I have at home, thought I don't know how to use it beside turning the feature on and off.
The sim card is on my bank records so I guess I need to alert the banks on that. Anything else I should do? Any way to trace it? Important details: it has both numeric and touchid passcode on it so I don't think anyone else can use it? Am I correct?
Thank you in advance for your advice. Much appreciated.

Now that's funny...because these places are in fact overcrowded with far to many people (MBK,. Central. ICONSiam)...but I agree many people but perhaps much less spending ?

Sure, funny isn't it. Especially if you hang out around tourist spots or the rich falang (as opposed to the newcomer refugee ralangs from you know where) stomping grounds (MBK,. Central. ICONSiam).
