GammaGlobulin Posted February 10 Share Posted February 10 (edited) As you know, here on the Forum, I do my best to be helpful, whenever possible. So....recently.... I happened upon an amazing deal, from 3BB, one which I could just not turn down. Also, as you know, I am simply in love with 3BB. So, here is the New Deal I have subscribed to: a. I downgraded my service from 1Gbps (both up and down), to 500Mbps (up and down). b. 3BB gave me an AIS SIM Card for my second phone: My second phone is the Galaxy S3. This is the phone I hope to use for another 37 years, until the year 2061, February 10th. c. By changing to this new plan provided by 3BB, I will save about Bt.100.00 per month, and also be provided with the AIS SIM card, which will give me 20GBytes of Bandwidth per month. Plus, if I wish to use the second phone to call out using my new AIS SIM card, then I will just pay as I go. d. This means that, in toto, Toto, in this Land of Thailand, one which sometimes seems like Kansas to me, I will now have a NOTE4 using Dtac service. Plus, I will have the same great STABLE service from 3BB which supplies ethernet connection to my desktop computers, PLUS, I will also have an AIS SIM card for my second phone, which I will use for exercise and language study during my exercise, all at a cost slightly reduced from my original service with 3BB. e. In my view, 3BB is WAY ABOVE any service I have ever tried in Thailand. I doubt that I am wrong. However, this Topic is not a debate about internet/phone services in Thailand. NO. This Topic is just a heads-up to any of you who might not be aware of this unique 3BB plan, and who might like to consider this plan, as an alternative to what you might now be using. Again.... This is NOT a debate. Maybe there are better plans out there, ones which can provide the same basic options of the 3BB plan of this type. One thing though...I still have my DTAC phone service on my Note4. But, I plan to downgrade this to the bare minimum for calling out, and internet access using the Note4. I do not go out much. And, when I go out, I rarely use the Dtac internet on the Note4. IF you find this Public Service Announcement useful...then.... YOU know what to do.... Just give me a LIKE. Of course, if you know me, you also know that I could give a rat's-adze about...so-called...LIKES, which I occasionally find to be less than sincere. Seriously, though....I am SUPER Happy about having found this new 3BB plan. I only found it by calling 3BB and asking the service operator, who did her very best to help me meet my mobile needs. Kudos to 3BB...as....I... Always say. Best regards, Gamma Note: Just do not say I never gave you nothin'......

Lacessit Posted February 10 Share Posted February 10 Apart from saying it is 100 baht less expensive there is no indication of what the actual plan is. You would not do a bait and switch, would you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You would not do a bait and switch, would you? No. You are correct. I would never cheat you, Mr. L.... And, you yourself know me enough to know that I never would. So, anyway...just call your 3BB service provider, and ask about this plan. I don't want to spell it out, too much, here. Still, why would they not give you, Mr. L., the same plan they gave to me?

Furioso Posted February 10 Share Posted February 10 Sounds like a great deal, I don't understand what all 4 items are in this promo though. For 699 baht down from 899 baht you get: 1. 500 Mbps up/down 2. AIS Sim Card 3. AIS Play Box(what is this?) 4. AIS Super Wi/Fi. Is this a Wi/Fi router?

I am very pleased to have been able to mention this great 3BB deal, here on TV. I think UTAH is an OK State, but still not quite as fine as Nebraska, the land of Johnny Carson. IF your friend in Utah is in the least bit appreciative of my efforts,..then...let....HIM.... Send me a letter of gratitude. By the way....I am....in NO way....a.... Sales Rep of 3BB. I am just a very satisfied customer of 3BB...and....when I find some great service....these days...then....I feel obligated to.....

Of course..... 24 months.... I will live in Thailand, My Kansas,.... 24 months of service, or 240 months of service,.... All the same to me. I will be happy as a clam with 3BB. Until the day I die. Unless, I move to Arizona....of course.... I am 110 percent satisfied with 3BB Service here in Kansas...from the service operators...to the.... Guys who come to my door. There is simply NO BETTER service in Kansas...that.... I have found. I know that long-term residents must agree with my assessment, too. Best regards, Hope this helps....

jaywalker2 Posted February 10 Share Posted February 10 Fibre optic is equally reliable with True and it's 640 for 500 MB up and down, less, I imagine, with a promotion and their customer service has been great. 20 GB on the sim isn't much and the SuperWi is, I assume, the AIS hotspots. I get offered that promotion once a month if I upgrade my service. Playbox I have no interest in. It doesn't inspire me to make the change to AIS.

But, I have never had better service than with 3BB. Personally, I DO NOT care a twit about AIS. The only reason I now have AIS is due to the 3BB plan offering AIS. Whether or not AIS provides good service, I do not know. Yet, still, any mobile internet for my phone will be sufficient for me, since I will only use it at low speeds for my exercise app, and maybe, if I need, to make a call or two from my second phone. Let us be clear, however, that 3BB customer service, 3BB service technicians, 3BB internet, is the very best that can be had in Thailand, at extremely reasonable rates. I am no fanboy of any internet service...it is just that....I am...pleased as... Punch with 3BB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

notrub Posted February 11 Share Posted February 11 How do you find the 500 mbps up down as a internet service as opposed to 1 gbps for private use? I found this 500mbps plan on FB as someone pointed out. I found the promotions from AIS to be confusing b4; now with 3BB added it has got worse. Is it possible to somehow combine a trade in your old phone and new subscribers' special offers? I saw this post a little late as I just bought one of the AIS Fibre 3 offers at 200 baht pcm. So, with the 500mbps @ 699 I save 200 baht over the 899 1gbps plus 200 for the fibre 3 that I have mistakenly bought and will now discard. 400 baht pcm is not a bad savings in these difficult times. How about trading in an old samsung S8 for a new samsung galaxy a54 5g? Are there any offers on that do you suppose? Thanks🙏🏼 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Costs are simply inflated so that you pay over the odds for the phone in the end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
