PoorSucker Posted January 22, 2012 Share Posted January 22, 2012 1. Yes, you can get one on a 30 day visa exempt stamp, some bank branches will refuse, just try next one. 2. Yes, many places will let you try on a 30 day visa exempt stamp, although only for 1 year temporary one. 3. No, you will need a work permit.

kropotkin Posted January 22, 2012 Share Posted January 22, 2012 A monthly contract? Why? Buy a 12 call sim card for I think about 50 baht, and top it up when you need. Calls are extremely cheap in Thailand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CMSteve Posted January 22, 2012 Share Posted January 22, 2012 The monthly contract can work out cheaper if you are a hardcore online phone user e.g. iPhone, Blackberry. You do not need a WP for a contract with TRUE. don't know about the other companies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
