Cheap Telephone Calls

Featured Replies

can anybody give me information (or tell me about helpful websites) about doing cheap calls to local and foreign destinations (Indonesia is important for me). i know there are prepaid calling-cards and even can dial a pefix number from my home line, but I am not familiar with the system.....and I wanna check the rates first before I buy anything....thanks for advice

...no need buy any pre-paid cards...just dial 008+62(for Indonesia)+regional code+number...you will pay just 7 bath/minute...it will be in your telephone bill..BYE BYE

I really like the Hatari PhoneNet card. You buy it at 7/11 for 300 or 500 Bt. First you call local Bangkok 02 number. I checked and calls to Indonesia are 6 Bt / min. Same rate to US and China. Pretty darn cheap considering Taksins mobile phones are 5 Bt / min inside Bangkok.

Best to use these cards if you can call 02 numbers from a home phone, calling 02 from hotel may add extra costs.

7 Bt / min is pretty darn good too, as the first person posted.

No special cards needed these days.

Use the prefix 007 for international calls routing over TOT lines rather than CAT.

008 is voice over IP using TOT lines and is cheaper,

or pay the full rate with CAT, prefix 001.

Also used 009 myself before when the 008 would not accept a fax. Was still resonable. Was charged 9 baht to EU for 1 page/1 minute.

Is there anywhere with an overview over the 007/008/009 options/prices?

Cheers!
