rikbrown Posted October 22, 2010 Share Posted October 22, 2010 (edited) Hi all, I'm planning on (considering) buying an iPhone 4. I'm currently on AIS with my Android phone. Pay-as-you-go (pre-paid). With this I only get EDGE (as I understand AIS have no 3G in BKK), and it appears to be charged per-minute connected! Back in the UK, mobile internet is charged per data used (e.g. £x/MB). My questions are: 1. Which network is recommended for using an iPhone 4 in Bangkok? 3G preferred of course, where possible. 2. Are there any pre-paid (not contract) plans that charge for data used? (Or give you allowances etc?). It's stupid having to disable mobile internet when I'm done with it - this isn't freaking dial up WAP anymore. Thanks all, Rik. EDIT: fixed formatting!

jackbox Posted October 22, 2010 Share Posted October 22, 2010 You want to look into TOT3G or I-Mobile 3GX (one of TOT3G's MNVO). It has extensive 3G coverage all over Bangkok, Samut Prakhan, Nonthaburi and Thonburi. I-Mobile 3GX prepaid (can buy sim card at 7-11) has plans based on data used. A 300 baht topup will get you 500MB of data good for 30 days and a 500 baht topup will get you 1gb of data good for 60 days. Google for their website. I don't think this forum allows you to put links for other websites. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wpcoe Posted October 25, 2010 Share Posted October 25, 2010 On prepaid 3G data plans, when they say 500MB or 1GB, is that download only, or upload + download? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it is Data only, you get 2GB for 500 baht. 1GB is 300 baht. http://www.i-mobile3gx.com/index_3gx_prepaid.php Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
