I've never had a problem in Starbucks on Samui. If there are no wall sockets, I just ask the staff if I can plug into one of the maintenance sockets (usually covered over on the ground). I've never been refused. You should ask, they're generally pretty helpful staff in Starbucks.

Starbucks at: Esplanade, ground floor Paragon and Wireless Rd have some sockets.

True Cafe Siam Square has power strips on the 2nd floor.

Thirdplace Thonglor 10 has lots of powerstrips.

Thanks dave

Really bad experience today at True cafe Siam Paragon 58MB file never completed downloading at all,getting wifi speeds at 19kb/s MAX,have to relog every 90mins as they say but kept getting disconnected every 20mins.

Looks like im gonna try another provider. Wasted 8hrs for nothing kept connecting 70% of the time than actually surfing

No point wasting your time anywhere in Siam on True. Doesn't work in the cafe, doesn't work properly anywhere in that area. End up having to go to Starbucks to log on to KSC - and this is 4-5x over the past 6-8 months.

For that matter, True in Emporium is usually quite bad as well, though it does work from time to time.

Oh - and by the way, Starbucks in Emporium Tower (not on the top floor), CentralWorld and Big C in Ekamai have sockets as well.
