Also good summary of the 7-11 Plans. https://thaisimcard.net/which-dtac-or-true-sim-should-you-choose-tourist-monthly-packages-at-7-eleven-2025/

@jakec I don't know where you find these packages!? It's great info! but had a few questions. So they're teaser packages that just work for 6 months? Are there any "starter" packages that are good for long-term use? I used to have the 200baht/6mbps unlimited with AIS. In addition to a great price they started renewing it on a weekly rate if I didn't have the full month's credit handy. Also if there was no credit (but of course still SIM expiry), I would just add it a day or two before I arrived and it would renew. This went on for years until I was gone and forgot to extend the validity. Total pay as I go. I am really looking for a plan like that as my AIS-ONE that I've had for 1-2 years now has no really affordable on-top packages available it seems. Do the True sims from 7-11 have the ability to keep the original plan longer (looks like 200b for 20gb/mo or something)? Thanks as always for your tips you should get a Youtube channel as this info is nearly impossible to find otherwise although I did find this site which seems like similar plans that you describe: https://one2callonline.com/

Unfortunately I only have eSIM on my phone.

The Orange Box outside 7-11 is pretty easy. There's also a simple site called mobiletopup.com. It also can do sim validity extension. It stopped taking my US cards recently though.

Isn't that only unlimited Social Media, or does it work with all sites? If its universal, that is indeed an impressive deal.

Regarding Net Marathon, is it only a 3 month renewal? One of my AIS plans would offer a weekly renewal if I didn't have the monthly credit. Net Marathon didn't seem to work that way but perhaps I didn't have enough credit. Would be nice to have that be monthly as I'm not in Thailand three months at a time anymore.

Anyone done the GOMO registration with a Thai? My friend's wife is happy to do it, but she's in Phuket and I"ll be in BKK. Is the registration at purchase and then we get a barcode I just activate?

Curious to hear about this in more detail! It appears you'll get at the least TNF, SNF and MNF, plus a few other games. Can you only watch live? Looks to be on the AIS Play app which is available for Smart TVs as well. Curious if it would work when I travel or is it geo-locked to thailand. VPN sometimes works for these things but they're getting smarter all the time.

Any idea why these 1-year packages are never sold in stores and only seemingly on Lazada, etc? There's ten million phone shops, you think they would be happy to sell them even if they would mark up the price a bit.

I saw Dr Anna 2 years ago. I had a very large lesion on my leg (tip of your pinkie sized) that she said was not skin cancer. And indeed the biopsy was positive. My dermatologist in the US about jumped out of her shoes when she saw it. Had all the tell-tale symptoms of basal cell apparently. She's happy to spray ya a bit with liquid nitrogen and send you on your way with less baht. You might consider finding someone else.

I had this for 2-3 years but was abroad for too long and expiration finally hit. The best part is that as long as you have expiration available, and less than 200b in the account, it won't debit it. So you pretty much pay as you go. Unfortunately like I said, mine expired. Anyone know where I can get the 200b unlimited AIS card? Is AIS Buddy a particular store? Is there one in Pattaya?

I went to Dr Anna a little over a year for a skin checkup and to have her look at a lesion I had on my leg that is a little bigger than the size of a pea that I had had for a year or two. Dr Anna told me she had never seen anything like it before, and not to worry, it is not cancer. Everyone else who saw it, from friends and family and footmassage ladies were like: What is that? You should get that looked at and removed. Fast Forward to last week when I went to a dermatologist here in the US. She about jumped out of her shoes when she saw it, and instantly said it was Basal Cell skin cancer. She did a biopsy that came back confirming her diagnosis. What happened to me should be subject to malpractice. Diagnosing Basal Cell is about as easy as it gets, and if you are not sure, why not get a biopsy? The doc as well as her assistant here were in complete disbelief that I had this looked at previously with that result. As for me, I have appoinments w a surgeon for Mohrs surgery as well as with a reconstructive surgeon for whatever damage they incur. Needless to say, had I caught this more than a year ago, it likely would have been a lesser procedure. And I actually count myself lucky as the doc here was worried it could have been something worse. Thailand can be a bit of the wild west for medicine, and for those of you with fair skin like me, it would probably be wise to see more than one or two doctors to improve your odds that you see someone skilled enough to detect anything amiss.
