StayinThailand2much Posted May 31, 2022 Share Posted May 31, 2022 If I call this number from Thailand, using my DTAC pre-paid SIM card, is it really "toll free" as mentioned on the website of this travel company? +1 844 311 8331 TOLL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
metisdead Posted May 31, 2022 Share Posted May 31, 2022 You will most likely get a recording saying something to the effect that "international dialing rates will take effect if you complete this call, if you do not wish to pay these fees, please hang up now." You might try this: Quality calls to anywhere in the world with dtac Check international call rates of each destination country In which case, you would dial: 004 1 844 311 8331 https://www.dtac.co.th/en/idd.html 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No. Tried from AIS "The number you dialed is not toll free when called from out..." (hung up). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sqwakvfr Posted May 31, 2022 Share Posted May 31, 2022 It should be free is you use Skype or something similar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wouldn't the other party need to accept me? It's a ripp-off travel agency (TourRadar; not in business in Thailand), "head office in Austria", but phone lines in the U.S. - They used to answer questions asked via their website, but seem to have stopped doing so. (I also tried their FB page and an email address, I had.) I guess, another "travel credit" over 550 dollars, I can write off. Maybe I can send something like a 'certified letter' to both, their U.S. and Australian offices, 'cancelling' the travel credit. (Any ideas how to do that from Thailand?) If very lucky, perhaps I could get 70% of my money back. (I could visit their Brisbane office, but it would be weeks after the 'expiry' of my "credit".
