00500

[Thaihot]

Just read the Bangkok post this morning.

 

put 00500 first or before your country code area number & phone number & you can call most international destinations world wide for 4 baht per minute.

205 countries world wide.

 

works on GSM & 12call systems.

 

More information contact AIS CALL CENTRE 1175

 

AIN call centre 022719005

 

or www.ain.co.th

 

I hope this is good for some of you & please report if any one has experenced this or if there is any news or updates.

Thanks for putting this up mate, appreciated...Anyone used this and can report back?

i cant seem to use this from my home phone, maybe its just mobiles?

I notice that the rates "start at" 4b/min. Check out their rates page for individual country rates, UK is 6-7b/min. And notice that "Rates are exclusive of 7% VAT", so tack on another 7% on the price of every call.

Sounds like a better deal than it is, still probably better than standard rates.

Yah, that's the truemove internation sim card.

 

But my friend told me that the network sucks..

For the 00500, I believe it's only for AIS 1-2 Call.

 

I called Singapore from Thailand for 5 baht/min.

 

Just have to dial 00500 (Country Code) (XXXXXXXX)

 

Eg. 005006599999999

Thanks for the advice. Will come in handy when calling the GF back in Australia in March. 00500.....easy to remember just remember Brocky.

I have had this card now for almost a year. Being pattaya based and only calling the USA. I will say it works flawlessly. To the usa land line or cell phone 1 baht a minute. I still have ais as my local carrier at 75 satang per minute

I have this. I actually bought it because the recharges last 365 days. As someone who receives endless calls but only makes one or two a month this is ideal for me. I also bought it for the cheap overseas calling but in the 2 months since I bought it have never had occasion to call anyone outside of Thailand and I'm still on my original 50B.

 

The network coverage in Pattaya is fine for everywhere that I have been.
