How to Save Over 50% on Your Thai Cell Phone Plan

AIS, TrueMove H, and dtac are the main mobile service brands in Thailand, although dtac is now part of True Corporation after the True-dtac merger.

But little do people know, these providers may offer retention or port-in promotions that can be much cheaper than their standard website packages.

To try to get a discount on your package, tell your service provider that you don’t want to use them anymore. Then they may offer you a promotion to keep you as a current customer.

For example, if you’re using TrueMove H, you can tell them that you’re moving to AIS. They may offer you a discount on your current package for a fixed period, such as 12 months, but the details depend on the promotion available at the time.

If they do not, you can start the process of changing service providers. When the change is about to take effect, your existing provider may contact you and offer you a promotion.

These retention promotions are generally aimed at postpaid customers and depend on the package and current campaign terms.

In addition, each provider has port-in plans shown publicly on their websites.

These plans are often cheaper than normal plans but may be more expensive than retention packages mentioned above.

There are also fairs like Thailand Mobile Expo at Queen Sirikit Convention Center, where service providers offer promotions and discounts.

The fair schedule can change, so check the official Thailand Mobile Expo website for current dates.

In addition to these promotions, you can buy an unlimited or long-validity prepaid SIM card on Lazada using the keyword “ซิมเทพ”. Prices, data allowances, speed caps, and fair-use policies vary by seller and promotion.
