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.

I had the AIS 10mbps plan for about 3 years. Well I guess I still have it. It doesn't seem to matter how long I'm gone, when I come back and top-up the plan fires right back up. The speedtest was usually significantly above 10mpbs, sometimes 60-80. It def wasn't speed-capped like some other plans I've had where that needle hits the line you paid for and stays there. Tethered all the time, including for 3 months during covid when the condo i rented charged a stupid amount for wifi. If it was an extra 100b for double the speed tho, I would do that in a heartbeat. You could buy both plans and do speed checks all the time to see if there's really any benefit. Let us know what u find out!
