Is it normal for hotels in Thailand to charge for issuing a TM30?

Bill *********

No, never happened to me. They are required to do it by law but I don't know if there are any laws about charging a fee. I know some larger hotels can be fee happy.

What is the easiest way to call the US from Thailand?

Bill *********

Many variables here. You can try using one of the apps as mentioned. Also check with your cell phone company, might have to visit their website, to see if they have an international calling plan you can add to your plan. Make sure it allows Thailand to your country. Some don't.
