silsburyhill Posted February 8, 2012 Share Posted February 8, 2012 Was told by Nice Shop Assistant that calling from Thailand to UK with 12Call has changed from prefix 009 to 005. Visited website, and indeed. saw 005 mentioned. However, just called UK to find it still exorbitant (relatively) 19 baht as opposed to aforesaid NYSA's 6/7 baht a minute (she didn't seem sure). Anyone can confirm What Prefix Number Actually Is Now? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PattayaParent Posted February 8, 2012 Share Posted February 8, 2012 009 was always a TOT prefix wan't it? not a 12call prefix. Get an international dialling card, it's cheaper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just yesterday I tried several times with the 009 prefix only to get the 'mai mii mai lek ...' followed by 'the number is not complete/assigned. Back to shop to be told 'changed to 005, whereupon 'phone answered, but at 19 baht per minute. Anyone? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CNXSTEVE Posted February 8, 2012 Share Posted February 8, 2012 For somebody Not Fresh Off The Bloody Boat I would have though the logical step was to call AIS call centre on 1175 If you follow the instructions they send you a nice little text back with the prefix 00500 and how to check the rates. It's 6/7 baht minute to the UK + vat. I think PattayaParent was right with his Get an international dialling card, it's cheaper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

terryq Posted February 8, 2012 Share Posted February 8, 2012 009 (and 001) are CAT calling codes see http://www.catteleco...=562&subcat=865 .009 rate is 6 or 7 thb/min depending on whether calling fixed or mobile. 007 and 008 are TOT codes(008 is also 6/7thb, cant remember exact). 005 is AIS own intl call code, again not sure of rates. Agree with PattayaParent calling cards are usually cheaper (sometimes much) available at 7-11 etc. Note calls to mobile numbers tend to be more expensive.
