Mumbo Jumbo Posted January 8, 2007 Share Posted January 8, 2007 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..? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigSnake Posted January 8, 2007 Share Posted January 8, 2007 Sure for english press Nine. Those DTAC, admin type send me a msg, wishing happy birthday, free calls all day, sent in Thai, I didn't find out until two days later when I ask the wife to read the message. Darn SHAME SHAME on me. I will be ready for their BUTTS next year IF I get the change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tywais Posted January 8, 2007 Share Posted January 8, 2007 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.

Thanks........... 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
