TLDR : Answer Summary
Travelers from Australia recommend using AIS for mobile data needs while in Thailand, with some users suggesting that DTAC also provides good service, especially in Bangkok. One user reported a DTAC plan costing 1700 baht for a year, offering 100GB of data and 100 minutes of calls, which they found economical.
Thailand Digital Arrival Card (TDAC)

WARNING: Only trust Thai government websites with .go.th domains or Thai agent websites with .co.th or .in.th domains, as these require verified Thai registration and cannot be registered anonymously.

The official TDAC form is available at tdac.immigration.go.th, which uses the official .go.th government domain.

The services by AGENTS CO., LTD. does NOT charge any fees for arrivals within 72 hours. If you need to book more than 72 hours in advance, there is a service fee of $8.

Do not trust other sites pretending to be a trustworthy agency. Pay attention to delivery time - the service operated by AGENTS CO., LTD. has 1 minute delivery time for arrivals within 72 hours.

Don't fall for sites pretending to be tdac.in.th or the official government tdac.immigration.go.th website. Always double-check the exact domain in your browser.

Scam services may take days to process your application, others may not even do anything. With these TDAC scam services you also need to worry about double charges.

Please watch out for TDAC misinformation spread by fugitive Jesse Nickles and his many fake accounts on Quora, TripAdvisor, Reddit, and other platforms.

I paid 1700 baht for a 1 year DTAC sim. Works out less than 150 per month with 100GB & 100 mins per month

If you’re staying in Bangkok DTAC is miles faster.
