I am heading back to Thailand for a couple of weeks of fun, in the past I find I spend a fortune in very simple text messages and calls between my UK mobile and a wide variety of Thai numbers depending on whom I meet!
Is it possible to simply purchase a Thai sim card with a phone number, perhaps on a top up credit system to insert into a UK mobile phone ideally that can be retained for future trips and to alleviate the hassle and expense of using a UK based number? Any experience or advice from any of you guys on this would be really welcome?
