7-11 would not sell me True 3.5 smart phone without Thai ID card

Featured Replies

My mobile phone has a few problems so I thought I would buy the True 3.5 smart phone for 690 baht at 7-11

But when I tried to buy it they would not sell it to me without a Thai ID card as the Cash register required it ????

This happened at 2 separate 7-11s one on Sukhumvit and one in Chinatown ,

Has anyone else had a problem buying a phone without a Thai ID card ? or is this a 7-11 thing ?

I know you need to register the Sim card , I have done that on my True Sim that I use now.

I just never ran into being refused when trying to buy a phone .

Anyone else run into this ?

You might not be their target market? They make their money back from the phone buy charging a lot for the service. They might be trying to prevent tourists here for a few weeks from buying it.

lots of phone shops around with better selection than 7/11
