Which DATA only DIM are you using

[Fairynuff]

I’ve been using 2 SIMs for about 7 years now. Regular post paid True for calling no data and a separate annual True data only unlimited 15mbps at cost of give or take 1800 baht. I’m up for renewal and can’t find the same one under 2600.AIS are similarly priced. If you’ve bought this kind of SIM recently, where did you buy, what price, which network?

my other option is to buy a package on my post paid SIM, but cost is slightly higher.

I have a couple of NT Thunder SIMs in use for data but my understanding is these have been discontinued and are no longer available.  There may still be some remaing stock of 1 month and 3 month versions.  They were 900 THB unlimited for a year but were meant for fixed point internet rather than in a phone which suited me.

 

In my phone I have an AIS prepaid monthyl deal with limited speed and volume for 200 THB which is enough for my usage.

 

True's THOR SIM is the best recent offering I've seen mentioned on here at 2,899 THB for unlimited 15Mbps which makes your 2,600 THB sound good.

I doubt if they found the THOR Unlimited for 2600 baht. Especially when they are writing about AIS. So they are referring to volume limited versions of 100GB per month.

I don't understand why people quibble over these prices. We are talking about US$85/£68 per annum. US$7 per month for unlimited data at up to 15Mbps.

I didn't mean to infer they had found the THOR SIM at that price but any unlimited at 2,600 THB.  As you say the AIS one may be a 100GB version if not a grandfathered package (if such exists).

I think it's the percentage rise rather than the actual figure which makes users highlight it.  It appears to be large and sudden if you've not been keeping an eye on things over the year since your last purchase.

They referred to "the same one". They didn't find it at 2600, nor AIS. It IS the 100GB version, as AIS don't sell another.

I use it for streaming tv so data needs to be unlimited and spread a minimum of 8-10 I think

I’m not quibbling but if I paid 1800 last year I’m going to make sure if it’s still available at that price before I pay more. That might not make sense to you, but it does to me.

Now you know it's 2899 or you can consider GoMo/AIS, if AIS have a good signal at your place and you have a Thai partner to register it.
