Dude, you gotta add an 8 after the 66 country code

I am still able to call mobile in thailand starting 966 without inserting 8 - misteries of thai telecommunication

Had the same issue... problem resolved after 8 was insterted after the +66.

Calls without the 8 do get a recorded message.

Are you sure you're calling Thailand with +966? Or can you speak arabic?

[PeaceBlondie]

Of course, we don't mean 8 immediately after the 66 country code, but after the first digit in the local number. So if the old Thai mobile number started 0433---- it becomes 08433-----

PB the "8" goes immediately after the +66 when calling from outside the country.

Old number +66 12345678

Now +66 8 12345678

no, I call +66 966 - which is a mobile and get through. I call that number every day - even today.

My number (AIS) also still works without the 8 from international. Does not work with the 8.

Locally though, it works with the 8.
