Phone in Thailand

While in Thailand, you can always call Russia from a hotel or a pay phone (payment cards are sold in supermarkets) or from your mobile phone. To avoid paying large amounts for the services of Russian operators cellular communications(Megafon, Beeline, MTS, etc.), it is recommended to buy a Thai SIM card. The cost of a call to the Russian Federation from such a SIM card is from 1.5 to 9 baht per minute. The most common operators in Thailand:

• 1-2-Call;
• DTAC;
• Orange.

In Thailand, a SIM card costs about 100 baht. They are sold in almost any 7-11 and Family Mart store. To activate the card, you need to dial a certain order of numbers and the PIN code included with the SIM card. You can also ask the seller to activate the SIM card.

The Thai SIM number is valid for 1 month from the date of activation. To extend the “life” of your SIM card, you need to top up your balance. Top-up cards are sold in stores. You can find out your balance by dialing *121#.

Also, no one canceled the program for Viber smartphones, set for yourself and the subscriber/subscribers you will call and when Wi-Fi available And running application you can call for free.

And yet the prices international communications leave much to be desired, and are not the cheapest way to call from Thailand to Russia. It is better to use the services of SIP operators. I can recommend two providers, each has its pros and cons.

Most cheap way for calls from Thailand these are calls via local provider IP telephony, there are plenty of them in the country. They differ in the quality of communication, prices, provision additional services, the presence of a website on English language. The operation scheme of all operators is as follows: dial the number of the gateway, local gate, from any phone, wait for an answer, enter your PIN (pre-registered), then enter the number of the subscriber you want to call, you need to dial without the “+”, then the connection occurs.

This method has disadvantages: each time you have to dial the gate number and PIN, calls to the gateway number are charged per minute

Of all the SIP providers, I recommend thaitelephone, the cost of a call to Russia is approximately 3 baht per minute, you can call without first registering a PIN, the caller id service is called. You can also use the callback service - the system redials the called person and caller, in this case you save on a local call.

Still, this is not one of the cheapest ways. Another disadvantage of thaitelephone is the inability to configure outgoing call in such a way that the subscriber has the previously selected caller number.

You can get direct Russian number while outside the country, including while in Thailand. Most good service provided by the company zadarma, the name itself speaks for itself. The system roughly looks like this: the caller, while still in Russia, makes a call to your Russian number, for example Moscow, the call is made via local tariff, then goes to the SIP-id you previously selected. Then forwarding of incoming calls to absolutely any number or to Skype can be enabled. Just set up your forwarding to your local Thai SIM card number. It turns out that calls to a Russian number are sent to the Thai card number, regardless of whether the phone has Internet. The service also has an important feature: caller-id, and a full one. When you call from a SIP client, the subscriber you are calling sees the number that you previously specified in the settings, you can set any number, even Russian. The subscriber may think that you are not in Thailand, but in Russia. During a conversation there is a drawback, a slight delay in speech, but this is typical for all IP telephony. Prices for direct numbers vary, for example for St. Petersburg the cost is $7 per month. Residents of Moscow can generally get toll free number, there is a condition - to top up your account with at least $2 per month. Tariffs for other cities can be found on the official website of the zadarma company. By the way, forwarding is paid, the cost depends on the direction, for example, to Thailand the price is $0.063/min (about 2 rubles/min).

For residents of St. Petersburg, the opportunity to have a direct number costs 220 rubles per month + 2 rubles per minute for received calls, which are actually forwarded. If you want to save even more, refuse call forwarding and receive calls from direct number to the SIP client installed on the phone. But to make calls, the phone must always be with the Internet turned on. You can also save money by not buying a direct number, but in this case you will have to call the general number of the zadarma gateway in your city, then dial your SIP-id.

SIP on Android is another way. CSipSimple is an Android client that is used on phones for SIP. Configurable for any provider.

Only lazy people haven’t written about how to call from Thailand or to Thailand.

Today I looked through the blog entries and... well, what can you do - I'm lazy. I don't have a note. Will. For lazy people like me, there are such impromptu meeting points in Thailand.

Forget about roaming
Forget Skype. There are a lot of ifs here. If you have a laptop with you, if you have one at the hotel free wifi, there may be food in the lobby, but you have to pay for this pleasure in the room. If there good quality Internet, if my grandmother had it... and the like.
Forget about telephone booths, like in the photo above.
Forget about Oversea Call Cards, if you speak English, then you can. But be careful with Lenso cards. Often the tariffs that are written in the appendix to the card do not correspond to reality. A phone card worth 300 baht when calling Russia can be consumed in 2-3 minutes. You won’t find the truth.
