Thai Sim Card For Mobile

[chrisb4]

Hello everyone, this is just a quick question. I am visiting Thailand, and regarding making phone calls within Thailand (i.e. from my mobile to friends who are also travelling in Thailand with myself), not international calls, I understand I can purchase a Thai SIM card for Thai domestic calls from most 711 stores over there? Is this correct?

Thanks

Yes.

A question asked and answered a million times

But I still would make sure you get a SIM card that is usable for international calls (most but not all are; quite cheap, good quality and you are not dependent on "phone booth" operators).

one2call from AIS still has the best overall coverage.

But even better than somewhere at 7/11: if you arrive at the airport just after customs (before! exit to the hall) there is a AIS booth with qualified english speaking staff.

Depending on your current carrier, or where you bought your phone, you may need to have it “unlocked” or “jail broke” before it will work with another SIM.

Hi,

12call has the most coverage, think Detac is a bit cheaper.

If your in BKK go to MBK shopping mall (BTS station National Stadium)

About 3rd floor anyone will be able to unlock your phone for Thailand.

Good place to buy your Sim card, might get some credit with it to.

1 2 call works for me any 711

If you get a 'True Inter sim' from any 7-11 you also get cheap calls back to the UK. One baht pm to UK land lines and (I think) six baht pm to UK mobiles. Calls within Thailand are one baht pm.
