we use a cat card 2baht a minute,any phone always perfect reception even on a mobile.

Go to Foodland (Fooders) and buy a Cat Phone Net card.

Someone told me that its cheaper to dial 00844 before the number. I call my Mother in the UK sometimes, and do actually find it cheaper than before.

pattayagirl - 008 is a prefix from TOT, costs around 7baht per min.

CAT Card is 2 baht per minute and the quality is exceptional good.

What is the CAT card ? can someone please explain it, i never heard of it before.

How much is it, and where do I get it from.

A CAT card is a CAT Telecom card, you can buy from most good supermarkets.

It has a value which can be used for calls to most countries

Thanks Beano, I will look into it.

Only 1 Baht / min, using 2 step dialing. I use it to call mu mum in Singapore everyday.

US & UK also 1 Baht / min. I bought the SIM in 7-11 when I first arrived in Phuket.

Evey top-up (no minimum), will extend your SIM validity by ONE year.

The cheap 1 baht/min card to UK I have actually costs me over 5 baht/min because I have to make the local call connection first which costs 4 baht/min on my 1-2-call card. Plus you have to pay this local rate for mis-dials, dialling time, long holds etc. Therefore it works out to be about the same as my land-line 001 809 number (7 baht/min + VAT).

Am I missing something, is the CAT card 2 baht/min the total price or do you still have to pay for the local connection?
