They cannot port a number over on the same network. They also tend to discard the SIM and buy a new one each time. So new number each time. Quite possibly will no longer be available next year. If they are only there a couple of months annually, a 12 month pack might not be suitable. Everyone is different. But if you are in Thailand long term, the Truemove H SIM from Lazada is excellent value. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, the connection drops not unfrequently, due to weather, location, and what not. I have tried the sim on various OS, ipad, windows phone, android tablet you name it and the problem still occurs. Whereas very little read none complaint I have had with the AIS package I had previously. My conclusion, correct or not, it's the quality of the product. One hint about that is that I had to "set up" the APN everytime, whereas with AIS none of the bother. I dont have this problem in my phone. The service seems to work everywhere I need to use it with no setup required. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KittenKong Posted June 20, 2019 Share Posted June 20, 2019 One "feature" of the MY pre-pay package that I recently discovered is that apparently it does not offer international roaming. To get international roaming - even for calls and texts - it seems that you have to be on post-pay. I have no idea why. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did not want to really pay up front the 1,790 Baht for a year for the True package and then find out that there was a possible problem some where. So I thought I would try out a simple cheaper CAT package ( signal strength and any future speed throttling issues or data capping ) . So far ive used about 50 GB in data and there’s been no speed throttling , the signal strength is full. So far so good . ???? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
