Sim card for short trip abroad


RafPinto

Recommended Posts

I am not up-to-date about conditions in Germany (away too long).

But as usual the #1 concern is having (mobile) internet access being able to use messengers whenever possible. Guess she has LINE and Facebook?

For that a German SIM is recommended.

Not sure whether LINE makes problems when changing SIM/phone number though.

Telephone is last resort. Also quite expensive from the German mobile SIM to Thailand.

There are multiple ways to get it cheaper with calling cards and things.

But not too convenient. A bit complicated.

Calling back the German number cost 5 to 7 Baht/min.

My ex is travelling next week for 3 weeks to Europe.

Do they have a Thai SIM/number/account now? Prepaid or postpaid? Which provider?

 

The main requirements?

 

local calls within Germany?

calls to/from Thailand?

mobile data? How much?

budget?

 

 

You can get a travel SIM or add on a package to an existing SIM.

 

Enable international roaming. Consider using WiFi calling, if available.

 

 

A local SIM is often the best solution. But a SIM from thailand offers service on touchdown.

I've been using the AIS Sim2Fly sim for 6yrs....but I think all Thai Telco's offer them. Works flawlessly  everywhere I've been (Europe, N.A.,S.A., all Asia).
