impulse Posted February 2, 2015 Share Posted February 2, 2015 My DTAC Happy response by the USSD code returns a more precise answer within seconds listing my years, months and days of service and passport ID number that I no longer use. So I guess they have me clearly ID'd. When they ask you how your 3rd beer tasted last night and whether that nasty rash went away when you used that stuff the doctor prescribed, I'd ditch the phone, ID'd or not.

bdenner Posted February 2, 2015 Share Posted February 2, 2015 (edited) It's all a "crock of shlt" anyway. In 6+ months a Terrorist just puts any olde SIM into his bomb phone (it will still receive calls under the new legislation ) and gets his/her accomplass to trigger it from somewhere overseas. AND If they need to correspond anyone with half a brain can do it anonymously. These "fruit loops" cant be serious! IMHO it's just a regeneration of previously attempts to register which will be doomed to failure - The telecoms will not tolerate the loss of revenues from millions of phone users! AND, at the end of the day, have more power than any bullshit the generals can throw at them. Edit:- Shlt spelt correctly Edited February 2, 2015 by bdenner Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ultimate weapon Posted February 2, 2015 Share Posted February 2, 2015 Btw does this mean you need to register your sim when you buy it from say 7-11. Isn't that going to hold up the line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diplomatico Posted February 2, 2015 Share Posted February 2, 2015 If I were an enterprising bar girl - just sayin' - for a couple of hundred baht I'd offer to register a SIM card for someone who doesn't want to be tracked by the Thai government.

BuddhistVirus Posted February 2, 2015 Share Posted February 2, 2015 Is there a website where you can enter your phone number to check and see if it's already verified ? I got my pre pay sim direct from the DTAC office in Siam Paragon and gave them full contact information some 5 years ago. So am I registered or not ? I saw something on Thai social media the other day that said you can check if your SIM is registered by dialing True *151# AIS *141# dtac *102# To add... If you do this to dtac (add *9), you will get English. So, Dtac *102*9# Sorry don't know about true and ais Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A1Str8 Posted February 2, 2015 Share Posted February 2, 2015 Told my wife about this. It was the first that she had heard about it. Then she said when her phone stops working she will fix it then She's a smart one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
impulse Posted February 3, 2015 Share Posted February 3, 2015 If I were an enterprising bar girl - just sayin' - for a couple of hundred baht I'd offer to register a SIM card for someone who doesn't want to be tracked by the Thai government. Great business idea, right up until the day the SWAT team beats down her door looking for the person using the phone registered in her name. A more likely plan would be phone theft, just for the SIMs, but that comes with its own set of problems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KhunBENQ Posted February 3, 2015 Share Posted February 3, 2015 My other sim This is exactly what I receive on *141#, my SIM was registered a few months ago You believe so But this is obviously the message that it is not registered and that you please show up in person at AIS service.

paddyjenkins Posted February 3, 2015 Share Posted February 3, 2015 If this is a law to prevent terrorists using a mobile phone as a detinating device, then a stolen phone could be used. No, this is a law to eavesdrop on calls and to track down ppl posting anti government protests on the social media. Similar to the patriots act in the US. Big brother knows who you are. It also has the added benefit of being able to identify prank or heavy breathing callers. Damn...no more heavy breathing for me then when I'm in Thailand Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MiclB Posted February 3, 2015 Share Posted February 3, 2015 Went online via cel phone to AIS and determined my sim to be unregistered. Then, Walked up to the AID desk yesterday and the "specialist" played dumb at first, then when I insisted she referred me to my bank. <deleted>?

KhunBENQ Posted February 6, 2015 Share Posted February 6, 2015 (edited) oh well so much for that I needed a new sim to activate my older iPhone and no sweat no ID Life goes on afterall Until end of July there will surely still be activated SIMs without registration. There is no word about the existing SIMs (in the shops etc.) already being deactivated. But that does not mean they stay active forever. 1st of August will be the date of truth (will the script be run over the home location registers or not) Wait and see Edited February 6, 2015 by KhunBENQ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sabanook Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 (edited) AIS on2call response for *151# is in English now: You haven't registered your prepaid SIM. Please bring your IDCard/Passport, SIM, device and contact AIS Shop/Telewiz/AIS Sales Points within 31Jul15 (code ...... ) The 6 chars code at the end of the message was different for two SIM cards I tried to register. I was told registration can be done using this app: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=th.co.pixilla.nbtc&hl=en But I'm not able to download it from Google playstore as it's "not available in your country" Edited February 26, 2015 by sabanook Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

96tehtarp Posted February 27, 2015 Share Posted February 27, 2015 Correct me if I'm wrong... Please. Any Alien (foreigner) can enter Thailand and use their foreign unregistered mobile simm card and mobile phone without registration under the current regime. The foreign registered simm cards could easily be used for nefarious purposes as they have often already been used in the deep south for several years already. No? If not, then what is the purpose and function of these new regulations? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BuckBee Posted February 27, 2015 Share Posted February 27, 2015 For any DTAC short code just add *9 to get the service in English language. So the code to check is > *102*9# for English & standard *102# for Thai Anyone wanting better language support & more usable online website would be best with DTAC .
