evstyper Posted February 23, 2011 Share Posted February 23, 2011 I'm going to buy a SIM card to put in a smartphone. What network best serves Bangkok? And best value for money network? I am wanting to use it for the 3G internet as well. How much does a SIM cost and then how much is the top up and what do you get for you money? Is it easy for a farang to get a pre paid contract SIM?

Daewoo Posted February 23, 2011 Share Posted February 23, 2011 Network choice is up to you... My mates and I all use 'Happy' on the DTAC network... You can buy a new sim anywhere... 7/11, bookstores, newsagents... 99 Baht with 35 Baht included or 199 Baht with 50 Baht included and 50Baht/month x 5 Months to other DTAC numbers... calls and messages are very cheap... 1 or 2 Baht a minute... 3.2 baht/SMS http://www.happy.co.th/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=93&Itemid=49〈=en '3G' in Thailand is still pretty much EVDO over GSM, so not 3G in the sense you might be used to...

lomatopo Posted February 24, 2011 Share Posted February 24, 2011 Do you already have a smartphone? What is the make/model? This will determine which 3G provider should be used. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
