IDD Calls from Thailand
 

Hi everybody,

Does anyone here know what's the most economical way to call other countries from Thailand? In Singapore, there are so many operators like Sunpage, Phoenix, Zone1511, Singtel, Starhub, M1 amongst others. So far in Thailand, I have found Catnet and GSM Advance.

Looking for quality and budget call operators, anyone got any ideas? Internet Telephone like Skype out of the question. Thanks in advance...

go buy a phone card call "E card" at S$9/ 60 min all handphone in thailand.....loud and clear...worth every cents

Re: Re: IDD Calls from Thailand
 

what are the rates like to various countries? Where can I check the rates? Any web site?

Re: Re: Re: IDD Calls from Thailand
 

i dun think have any website to check but this E card is the cheapest rate to thailand.

Re: Re: Re: Re: IDD Calls from Thailand
 

Oh, I think you have mistaken. I am talking about calling from thailand to other countries, not calling to thailand

Anyway, since you mentioned E-Card, where to get in Singapore?

Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: IDD Calls from Thailand
 

Ya...you guys are on the wrong frequency.....

Ecard...oh that's a very good card to use especially for call to China.....one $10 card for 420 minutes call to HP.

But one catch.....a S$0.30 "connection charge" per call. Thus for long talk it's ok...but short talk quite costly.

It's available at most phone card shops. I can get it at S$8.80 per pcs...but min three cards per purchase. At a small phone card shop just beside Serangoon Plaza (the old Mustapha) along Serangoon road.

After trying various cards , must say the best so far is Hello card.
$8 for 40 mins. However all instructions in Thai. The other cards reception not so good but this one very clear.

You can try Osms card. They are using sms to get a callback from their server in Singapore.

You need to have a local slim card -- prepaid or postpaid (in this case Thailand). Once you registered by sending a sms message with the serial number of the calling card to Singapore, you can utilise their service immediately.

To utilise the service you need to send a blank sms with the number you are calling to the Singapore number. In less than 10 second you will be connected to the other party.

If you are interested there will be another operator in another 2 to 3 months where they will offer a similar service -- calling from any country to any country in the world without using the sms service.

At the moment most if not all of the calling cards offer you idd service from Singapore to the world.

Bro try E card.......trust me save you alot.... $9 for 60 min ..loud and clear

Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: IDD Calls from Thailand
 

E card is good for calling Thailand from Spore but what about calling to S'pore or other countries from Thailand or BKK ??? Can you recommend one ???

By the way, if Hello card can provide call to Thailand - BKK at $8.00 per 40 minutes which is about that of E card, then I will think Hello card may be a better choice. As Hello reception is defintely better than E Card.



Many thanks......

i can't find.. in the end, the girl said "GO" card.. kena conned.. 40min for $9. :(

just bought a e-card after searching high and low for it!!can be hard finding it.

60 mins call to thailand at the value of $9. I can say that the reception is very good. It is on par with M1 IDD 002.

Thks to 1111111 for the recommendation.;)

hey subband.. where u got it?

i got it at a kodak shop, at hougang. a lot of place didn't sell it.

very good. i stay in hougang too.. which kodak?.. we met before right? GM?

Nice to learn a new quality alternative to Hello Card..... gotta try it out soon to make my calls to Bangkok.

Any other alternatives to call from thailand out to other countries besides the Osms method?

Any block number in hougang?

Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: IDD Calls from Thailand
 

Is the connection charge for all calls irregardless of calling destination?

How do you make calls with it? Similar to Hello Card?

Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: IDD Calls from Thailand
 

Hello Card got other language options... :)

just for those that are unsure, the shop selling it does printing and photography services and it is next to the S11.
