Dtac

Featured Replies

Ive just been to get my mobile phone credit topped up, with Dtac , in the past ive all ways dialed *1001 to hear what my balance is , and I could hear the balance in English, this time after topping up my credit, I dialed the same *1001 and was told my balance in Thai. I then contacted the Dtac service center and asked how I could change the balance notification announcement to English.

The service operator said it was not available in English, only Thai!!, I am sure there’s a way of changing the balance announcement to English by pressing some key’s on the phone..?

Any one know if its possible..?

' for English please press 9 ' ??

HI Mid .... I must be a bit slow to day... can you tell me a bit More ..( for English please press 9 ) ive dialed *1001 , which came in Thai..? but said nothing about dialing 9 ...?

farangsay... tried the *1010 and it said press 9 for English , and then went on about an Emergencey balance sms at 2 Bhat each Etc...? tried it and a message came two Minuets later saying my balance was less that 20 baht ( ive just put 300 baht in it ) ...any ideas

All I want to do is get back to dialing *1001 and getting the balance back in English ...?

Thanks...........

I've never heard an English version of the balance but it was never a problem due to my able to understand the Thai. Thought I would try and findout using DTAC's new 1678 (all inclusive) number and got a live English speaker who gave me the balance immediately. He said for English I need to use *101# which I just tried and immediately got an SMS back with balance and expiration date.

I have DTAC pre-paid so don't know if it is different with post-paid.

Sorry mate

Just checked again

What I have is an entry in the phonebook that says

ChkBalance

When I view to see the number behind it says

*101#

Just tried it

Might not be an SMS

Phone says "Await network action" and then the

stuff appears.

My eyesight is going downhill on skates I'm afraid

Just tried the *1000 number and when it said to hit a number to change to English, I did. Exited then did the *1001 and now it is in English.

Well.... just tried the *1000 number , and changed the balance message to English.

also just tried the *101#. and that works great ...

so thanks to all ........
