No longer possible to top up AIS SIM cards through Bangkok Bank internet banking??

[OJAS]

Has anyone else been receiving the attached error message as I have following several unsuccessful attempts today (Tuesday)? And is the culprit more likely to be AIS, rather than Bangkok Bank, given the advice in the message to contact the payee if the problem persists?

Just did, postpaid account.   From your error message, maybe problem on AIS side?

Yes, you are correct. According to AIS I was running up against a 5,000 THB maximum limit on my prepaid balance, of which I was previously unaware.

 

Mods - maybe this thread should be re-titled along the lines of "Maximum balance on AIS prepaid SIM's is 5,000 THB"?

What's the reason for pre-loading so much credit on your phone?

If you are going overseas and want to use the roaming feature it will eat up money quick. Safe to have a large balance.

Probably going to ring the UK HMRC helpline!

That would be funny ( I did a laughing emoji though) if it wasn't spot on the truth.
