Has anybody managed to top up their Truemoney account with a foreign card?

If so how did you do it? 🤪

Can the TrueMoney app be topped up with cash and where? Can I use it to pay by scanning a QR code (Prompt Pay)? So far I have only used it to pay at 7-Eleven by the shop scanning my app's QR code.

There has been a few posts regarding TrueMoney wallet app/service. Here is my positive experience. I already have been using it with a family members ID, so I decided to apply for my own. Firstly you apply through the app. They allow you to apply for the basic level. It was simple Passport BIO. Face ID, phone no and your details. It took 24 hours and I got a sms saying I had been accepted.

You can then apply for the advanced level. You now are asked for work permit (I put retired) Non O visa ext stamp. Yellow book, or pink card or Thai driving licence. I think its only one of these but as soon as i put my yellow book in it said we will review your documents blaa blaa, 24 hours it was approved

I only use this app for 7/11 because I have bank accounts (not frozen at the mo) debit and credit cards. So this is to avoid all the Thai coins you end up with. So cant say about the other facilities.

Also I found a FB TrueMoney account and messaged them. They were really quick and answered my questions.

Where do you pay your water bill?

Jomtien

Whithout a Thai bank account how can we pay the water and electricity bills online? It always rejects me because it has to be a Thai issued card.

Is it possible to register true money for 711 as a foreigner? I did this before a few years ago but they cancelled it after my visa expired. Is this still possible?

How can I pay my first electric bill from the Provinicial Electricity Authority (PEA) from my Bangkok Bank account mobile app. When I scan the barcode or scan\pay icon, I get the error message, "This payee is not found."

Looks like 7-Eleven will be the least complicated option. On their website, the show Bangkok bank but I can't find it in the mobile app.

The only PEA apps I see in the Android store is PEA Privilege and PEA VOLTA.

Update:

So, I changed the address on my google account to Pattaya and was able to get access to the Android Play store. I scanned the PEA SMART+ scan code on the back of the bill to bring up the app and was able to install it. Once in the app, selected "Add location" and entered the info for the condo I am renting. This will be two fields from your bill near the top of the bill: CA/Ref. No.1 and PEA No.

Sorry for no screenshots because the app won't allow it. There is a sample picture when you get to this screen showing the location of these fields and values.

It found my bill and went to pay it with Bangkok Bank and it gave me the error message, " transaction not allowed outside of transaction hours" or something like that!

I will try again tomorrow to see if this can be accomplished for us Bangkok Bank people in Pattaya Jomtien.

Tobacco.

Does anyone know if B&H are cheaper in the Airport Duty-Free sections or the same (maybe even less) in the average Thai 7/11 please?

Hi, anybody know if the True SIMs from 7-eleven lose the number/die if you go away for some time or stop paying?

In some countries, it can be 3 or 6 months.

Or is the only solution just to keep a balance and let it autorenew on current or reduced plan, or maybe just a small balance without a plan is enough, and plans can be reinstated on return?

Not optimistic i could find out from 7-eleven staff.

Thanks

My Truemove data package needs to get renewed tomorrow and I don't have a shop anywhere near.

Is there another way to top up the money? I do not have a Thai bank card.
