Because i already have a postpaid subscription, i never tried to order and activate a tourist sim inside the dtac application. Just noticed it’s there. Worth a try

I've just brought 1gb of Jetpac for £1.valid for 4 days when activated... I'll see how it goes.. Can top up to 10gb for 30 days for £13...

If you arrive at Suvarnabhumi then you have all the major providers right there. They usually have lists of the current promotion packages.
Before switching to post paid, I used AIS prepaid because of the best network.
You should not rely on what ppl say here bc mostly the information will be outdated when you arrive in the country.

store - They set it all up for me .This was not a difficult or expensive . Of course my Thai wife was there to explain what I needed . I would not have confidence in Vodaphone -I have read so many Negative reports about their tricks ...

Vodaphone charge £8 a day just to switch your phone on, definitely rob you for going to Thailand ,

I find AIS the best. Start for a month then they keep offering specials. I just renewed for another 6 months

Just came back from Thailand last week, and i very highly recommend Jetpac esim I bought the 10$-50gb pack and the setup was super easy! Took me 4-5 mins. I landed in Thailand, and switched it ON! It took about 1-2 mins to connect! It was amazing 5G and awesome speeds! It was working even on phiphi island! Really amazing and highly recommended! They also have an added perk of free lounge access if flights delayed, though our flight was on time, so we couldn’t use that! Website below Www.jetpacglobal.com

@Aditya ******

@Andy *******

Paul ******
Dtac tourist sim or e-sim
Minesh *******
All depends on on data amount and days tbh
Lloyd ***********
OP@Minesh ******

@Lloyd **********
being very honest… over 20+ times.. I’ve bought my card in the airport once I’ve picked up my luggage. Then I call my home to let everyone I arrived safely.3 weeks ago I paid 350bht for 15 days unlimited(but it probably is limited)😂
Brian ********
What’s wrong with your own phone ?, this is all I ever use and I frequent Thailand all the time
Rog **********
@Brian *******
he's on about the data plan not the phone itself because using your own phone costs a fortuneBrian ********
@Rog *********
costs me $5 a day but each to there own , data most places have free wifi but alls good 👍Brian ********
@Rog *********
yes understand this Rog but I mostly use the free wifi so it costs nothing, but hey that’s the way I’ve done it for years each to there own 🙏🏻Rog **********
@Brian *******
so for 21 days that's 105 dollars when you can get a Thai SIM for 22 days for about 15 dollars just a thought mate
Victor ********
100 GB. 300 bath. Dtac! For 30 days
Brian ****
55 GB on AIS is only 220b for 30 days.
Brian ****
@Tony ********
Go to any AIS store in a mall with your passport and they'll set you up in 10 minutes. They might steer you to more expensive service, but ask for the cheap ones.Tony *********
@Brian ***

Jef ********
@Kenny ****
yeah it’s easy you can grab it while you wait for your bags. I never understood why all these people will d*ck around with no SIM card just to save $5 at a ****
Kenny *****
@Lloyd **********
all airport have ais. Just get it from there. Yes, it’s a bit more than if you go to an ais store at a mall or outside the airport. It’s probably $2-5usd more but it’s up to you if you wanna save for the inconvenience.Lloyd ***********
