How do you do it? Besides paying from my bank app (MEA), I also use the CounterServicePay app (it's in the Google Playstore, don't know if it's available for iPhone), which does have both the mea and pea and also for the water both in and outside Bangkok area. You can pay with a credit card through that app and even get a 10 baht coupon for 7-11. Hope this helps. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The two issues are 1. It's all in Thai, and 2. When you add a meter to the app you need a Thai ID number. Other than that it works great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fusion58 Posted June 22, 2018 Share Posted June 22, 2018 I have the MEA "smart life" app (should be called "dumb life.") I can view my electric bill each month, but I can't pay it insofar as these boneheads haven't figured out how to process international credit card payments. I wish all the other utility and telecom companies in Thailand would talk to DTAC and ask how DTAC was able to figure this out. Paying my phone bill with my U.S. credit card each month is as easy as falling out of bed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you're absent for a long time, just deposit a bit and problem solved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't have any problems with it for the last 1.5 year that I use it. I assume you do know that CounterService is a nationwide payment service in Thailand with thousands of payment points? I use a Thai cc, so I don't know if a foreign cc would work. After the payment they always send a confirmation email in Thai and English. The app itself gets a lot of negative reviews on Google's app store, but I have to say that the app itself has indeed not the best gui, but it gets the job done to pay for water and elec.

fusion58 Posted October 20, 2018 Share Posted October 20, 2018 Happy to report that MEA finally got their shit together and entered the 21st Century. I've been using their iOS app to pay my bill for the past few months - and they even offer a payment channel that accepts international credit cards.

No. Also, you get the true international exchange rate, and, in my case, my card-issuing bank doesn't hit me with any foreign transaction fees. I'm a happy camper.

philba Posted November 12, 2018 Share Posted November 12, 2018 Having read the previous comments, I downloaded the MEA App and followed the instructions to register my meter. It took about a minute and I could then pay my bill online, with ZERO fee, using my UK Mastercard. (I use Monzo, so no transaction fees and the mastercard spot rate) I received confirmation by email instantly. Another happy camper ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kwarium Posted November 12, 2018 Share Posted November 12, 2018 I use the MyAiS app on Android which has links in a sub menu to all the utilities, including topping up the highway EasyPass. Internet, phone, water, electric, all in one app. I enter my virtual Kasikorn credit card number each time as I don’t trust any app that saves card numbers. MyAIS uses verified by visa/ two factor and I get an sms/text from the bank for every transaction. Electric and water still mail a paper receipt, unfortunately. I had the Kasikorn app when it was new and still buggy so I deleted it. Call center couldn’t help. I like Kasikorn online banking, but not by phone. Lord, I was born a ramblin’ ma-a-n... ????

The Kasikorn app works great and never was buggy on my phone for several years already (SS S4 and now a SS J7 pro). Has fingerprint login and you can use it to withdraw money from an ATM without using your ATM card, which is more safe (since your card can't be skimmed). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
