Take note that @JB300 mentioned February. After which there has been a push by the networks to restrict sales of 50 baht SIM without an expensive package. Hopefully that initiative has failed miserably. But don't say you weren't warned if you come up against it. Your best bet is to order them online a day or two before arrival . Still just 50 baht there. You can add a one month data pack for as little as 15 to 27 baht, if you use it sparingly. But realistically, 200 to 300 baht for more comprehensive packages. Marathon Max(50 GB of 15 Mbps) is 590 baht for three months.

Fred...you've hijacked the topic. That's all.

Amply demonstrated.... keep it simple. Have you hijacked the thread or not? Are you discussing the topic? Topic is "when was the last time that you spoke to a foreigner". Narcissists don't care about that, they have their own agenda. Protect their egos. Avoid such toxic foreigners.

I imagine a true empath would be sensitive to the fact that they had completely hijacked the topic. A narcissist wouldn't care. A good reason to avoid communicating with certain foreigners I would say.

Autism, probably.

The term "Palestine" is first mentioned in the 5th century BCE by Herodotus in his Histories, referring to a district between Phoenicia and Egypt. The Romans later revived the name in the 2nd century CE as "Syria Palaestina"...

I'm not going to read any of that. The topic is "when was the last time that you spoke with a foreigner". Try to not act like a narcissist, making it all about you.

It's a shame, but certain characters, even on an anonymous forum, let their egos get the better of them. That's the kind of foreigner I would avoid in real life. In real life, sometimes it's best to be diplomatic. But some characters feel they need to win, in every discussion. It's pathetic. It should be light and fun. But instead...

Can you imagine trying to have a conversation with a foreigner who always thinks they are right...even when they are not? I don't believe such a person has or can have any real foreigner friends in Thailand.

You can change the keyboard language and layout anytime, even if the OS states Single Language.

The topic is "when was the last time you spoke with a foreigner?" Seems someone thinks it's all about him. Enough said.

fred is giving me a headache. Does he ever give it a rest? Sheesh...

Then you'll have to install or just choose the US-International keyboard layout. The way to check is to press and hold the Windows key and then the Space key(Windows key + Space key) That, if you have both keyboard layouts installed, will toggle between the languages. If it doesn't you'll need to install a United States-International keyboard layout and toggle between them as necessary.

If honestly, reading the posts here, I would happily avoid these foreigners. They might be able to mask it superficially on the outside, but this is what they are like really. Blind to their own faults, self praising and self satisfied. Appalling.

Didn't you have other friends than 'beer guzzling nutters'? Strange having to leave a country to avoid them. Some strange people here 😊

Perhaps some of the nasty comments put them off from returning. If someone is in an unhappy situation, they don't need nasty people.

Scandies are dragging the thread off-topic. More foreigners to avoid 🙂 Just joking 😊

If honestly, that's something that I noted from Americans. Superficiality. Don't take it personally.

Foreigners that I would prefer to avoid... The ones who are aggressive and hostile whilst suggesting that foreigners are aggressive and hostile.. 😊 The ones who whinge and complain about foreigners whinging and complaining..... The ones who abuse the Report function to the point where they are told to not use it anymore... The ones who complain about other foreigners...

I disagree...the negative responses say a lot about the perception of the aforementioned.

Watch out...👀 grumpy old men about 😊 Who socialises with strangers? I make friends firstly, then socialise. You have to introduce yourself in an acceptable manner. That's how it works. Rather than to stand at the wings, criticising because no one seems interested in you. I communicate with foreigners every day. Family and friends and females in the 24 to 35 year age range. But of course there is not going to be much interest in striking up a conversation with an old foreigner who is stuck in their ways, male or female.

Run a speed test in order to determine against what to compare: https://testmy.net/ Test My Internet > Combined

Both options have numbers attached and the costs are exactly the same.

My suggestion would be to contact the call centre to see what they can offer. Especially if you are willing to leave and let them know that. My old mobile packs are rolled over. Maybe they can do something similar for you. But NOT via the shops, but via the call centre.
