Having Problems Contacting My Girlfriend

[TommoPhysicist]

I do not want my answer always negative to the female, so maybe this something for you to consider...

Dont always listen to every fool here,obvious he know what the bad girl do as he fall for it before and still probably do now.

I don't see why you have a problem with this. Thailand isn't big on monogamy.

We all need a 'gik' phone (men and women). Seems like you are the only one not playing the game.

You know, the one you have on vibrate only, so it doesn't ring when you are with your wife/gf.

Since the OP has not replied yet , perhaps he already found out that reality can be hard to swallow .

Its a shame that many people on here have so many of their own issues they want to push instead of just answering the request.

I have known my girlfriend for many years and even though she is a bit crazy at times she is completely straight with me. She spent 4 months with me in Uk and only went back in september and that was her 6th visit here.In addition I visit thailand most years.We probably would be more involved but for my struggling business interests here in Uk.

She phoned saying she had been in Cambodia no signal.She buys at Cambodian markets on the Thai side of the border.For the first time she was invited by a trader she deals with to see some new stock that had just arrived from the USA at his godown.

Thanks for the few helpful comments.

She could have contacted from there or anywhere to confirm she was OK. BUT, if you are happy then thats all that matters.

I've been at those markets and yeah my phone worked fine, funny that.

[Sharp]

I hate to state the obvious, but have you considered the problem may not be with the phone service? It may very well be that your girlfriend, "for whatever reason," shuts off the numbers that you have when it is not convenient for her to take your calls. I find it hard to believe that 3 different numbers/carries are all continuously unreachable over extended periods of time.

Glad you said it, l was going too but.........................

Me too

Yeh me too.

Been to all the different markets on the Thai/Cambodia border. Never had a sinal problem in any of them.

Sounds a bit fishy to me but if the OP wants to believe his GF then as is said in Thailand so many times 'UP TO HIM'

Perhaps if he puts some dates up that phone connections are non existant, some other punters....err posters might recognise the dates.

[fakename]

Only problem i have with a Thai number is when the owner has turned his or her phone off, nothing else. I have called Thailand from USA, and Europe, no problem.

Across the border you can get Cambodian 3G signal and in some area even WIMAX at 4G.

[Marcel1]

True even a few km on the Cb side I even can use the thai provider. After that auto switch to cambodia prov . But still never problems to call or get called

She has two shops in Trat and regularly travels to Bangkok for stock and onto Supanburi to see her mum Many of these problems reduce or clear up when she is back home.

This should be a give away. Not?

[rics21]

I travel to poi pet often. U can still get ais signal when u r in the Cambodia side of the border.

I too have found telephone services in Cambodia to be far better than Thailand this year.

I have done so many 90 day border runs to Cambodia and to Mae Sot (Burma) and my phone(s) have always worked when I have phoned the g/f or others in Thailand even from just over the border. Even the 'iffy / cheap' phones I have tested at the markets with phone calls to a g/f or a friend to see if they are working have had no problems.

Considering the market at Poipet - for example - is on the Thai side, why on earth would her phone not be working from there?

Maybe the OP does not like the idea something else may be going on but there is no reason to be unreachable especially with that many numbers.

[lomatopo]

What does she say when you ask about these problems?

Are all 3 SIMs active, valid, topped up, in phones, turned on?

Can you connect if you dial direct?

I am not familiar with 1815, but many VoIP providers have connectivity issues. And maybe they don't have gateway in Thailand?

Without a lot more detail it is challenging to help.

[FredLee]

I often had problems when trying to call my wife on her visits to Thailand. If I ever got through on the first try I felt extremely lucky. Sometimes the phone would ring and then stop, sometimes I would get a recorded message in Thai, and sometimes she would answer, but either I couldn't here her, or she couldn't here me. But more often than not, I would just get "dead air". All these symptoms would occur during the same period of time. I would normally have to dial 8 to 10 times to finally get through. These problems normally happened when I would dial her mobile phone, but would also have difficulties calling the land line to her house. These problems were most pronounced while she was in Chiang Mai, and happened rarely while she was in Bangkok.

We are now living in Thailand, and she has two phones. One using AIS and the other DTAC. She says she gets discounts and better rates using two different carriers. She pays the bill, so she can have as many phones as she wants.

I really must laugh at you guys and the excuses to why ''She Nooooooo answer phone stuff''. I could tell some stories but l won't. ...................................

Of course the odd time there could be a problem but...................................

My wife and daughter and male friends don't have any problems answering their phones when I call.

Funny that it only happens to guys when they aren't around to see what's going on.

Get her a nice expensive Android phone, turn on GPS tracking.

Then you can see where she is, and if the phone is on.

Absolutely correct.

[geoffphuket]

writing is on the wall here............there are none so blind as those that will not see.

What next, buffalo sick, stay to take care of sick relative.....time a for a reality check......sorry

It's okay, she's probably 'different from the rest'.

Actually I've been looking for an app that allows you to do this. I've seen in many films where people track mobile phones but have never found the app.

Can anyone help me?

Oh, by the way..... there is a nice little app called Fakegps (or something like that). A few weeks ago I was in the remote parts of Alaska. The day after I was in New Zealand and just a few hours later I was in Japan. All can be seen at my "check-ins".

[kotsak]

Samsung provides phone tracking for their Android phones via samsungdive.com

Phone needs to be connected to internet of course for this feature to work.

Dont always listen to every fool here,obvious he know what the bad girl do as he fall for it before and still probably do now.

Most girl do have at least three sim card they do swap from time to time. Most new phone even have multiple port for SIM so you not even know it

Another reason (other than what other poster will say) is they get a better deal from each company that have different deal. One sim might allow her to ring a certain number for free from anyplace, so she will have this sim for family maybe and swap others around.

Another sim might be more cheap for overseas call ect

If you cant connect in any of the 3 numbers of the SIM you dial then maybe she is using a new one for some reason.Not always bad motive! Maybe she did loose a SIM who knows,could have even lost phone.

The SIMs from most company are cheap and easy to get, sometime no ID and even 100baht, not expensive like other country

If the farang know-all on here could read Thai and he was smart enough to take advantage of, he would probably also have 3+ SIMS so he could do all his business which be SO important

call to stockman, many associate and of course this HUGE staff he does employ

-nauseous!

"Most girls" - I love it. I work with dozens of professionals and have taken to asking them how many sims they have, because my curiosity was piqued from the answer here. 1 gets about 90 percent answer. The ones with more blush and look away "Gig phone". The "Most girls" probably are met in the tourist areas of Thailand, methinks.

So then, those few girl who blush and look away know exactly what this question does accuse them of, so no wonder 90% answer only 1

this is the same scenario when you do ask a girl if she have husband or BF, 90% do say NO.

I can never understand how this country become so heavy populated

[tingtongtourist]

hehe Well you dont play the game alone i do/did join in now and then. Trouble when if you have missed calls from a workplace or some other call you should have taken, then have to give excuses and everyone knows what you up to anyway.

Even if on vibrate you cannt take it out of your pocket to see who calls or the wife/GF will ask why you got it on silent

[Spoonman]

Try calling one of her other long term boyfriends ...

She just woke up and says Hi, tells me you should call in 4 hours on the ais number.

[inzman]

I can only state the obvious, in Thailand girls have a different sim card assigned to each " long term" boyfriend. Your sim is not working because she is with another " long term" boyfriend. Don't be so naive.

[Digitalbanana]

What do you expect when starting a thread with such a naive title? It is bound to attract the blood hounds. Wise that you leave as you have done and let the rabble bark amongst themselves!
