AsiaWolfie Posted January 31, 2006 Share Posted January 31, 2006 everytime I try to make a call to a foreign country using the cheaper 008-prefix, I am told "sorry, the destination u dialed does not exist". though, the expensive 007-prefix works fine..... what might be the problem ? anyone else experienced the same ? or do I have to register first to use it ?

Joey Boy Posted January 31, 2006 Share Posted January 31, 2006 it should work "out of the box", mine has been giving an engaged tone whenever I try to call someone for the last few days also Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tavarich Posted January 31, 2006 Share Posted January 31, 2006 Are you trying it at a busy time at the local destination. I was told that they only have a certain capacity to send the 008 calls. I try and call after business hours at the destination if possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AsiaWolfie Posted February 1, 2006 Author Share Posted February 1, 2006 no, its not a busy line, only after dialing "008" when I didnt even dial any foreign prefix yet, a voice tells me: "the destination u dialled does not exist" strange Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mate seems to me he was only trying to advise you. Try 007 is won't break the bank and the reception is a lot better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sierra01 Posted February 2, 2006 Share Posted February 2, 2006 I tried to use 008 last night and got the number does not exist message as well, looks like someone is losing a lot of money here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeWill Posted February 2, 2006 Share Posted February 2, 2006 (edited) Few questions... What are the rates (at popular destinations) for: - 007 - 008 - 009 and how/where do you pay the bills/charges? Are these prefixes good for both TOT & TRUE? What about mobiles? P.S. It would be helpful if someone prepare the info related to overseas calles and make it a pinned topic. Edited February 2, 2006 by Condo_bk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You obviously cant afford to use the premium # or this post wouldnt exist Few questions...What are the rates (at popular destinations) for: - 007 - 008 - 009 and how/where do you pay the bills/charges?

I think there about 9 baht a minute, never used 007, I thought 001 was the expensive one? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you have an AIS account they will add any 007 or 008 call costs to your monthly mobile bill. They usually are on the under side of the cost rather than the overside. In my personal experience anyway . I am very pleased as i do not have the problem of going to T.O.T. ( international ) every month. I have started using 007, it,s a better, more reliable service and only costs 2 baht more than the 008 no. Since finding out about the AIS arrangement i only use them 2 numbers . Up to now a very good arrangement and service with both companies. marshbags Edited February 2, 2006 by marshbags Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
