Pom Michael 54 Posted March 15, 2007 Report Share Posted March 15, 2007 Well, my speed dropped back down to the 600 to 800 level yesterday and today. Wonder if the 1,900 kbps was just a teaser for a few days, or if the 600 to 800 is what I'm going to be stuck with. Cheers! Link to post Share on other sites
Pom Michael 54 Posted March 29, 2007 Report Share Posted March 29, 2007 So, did anyone else get the True Super Hi-Speed? My download times have remained constant at about the following: From: http://speedtest.thaivisa.com/ Download Speed: 709 kbps (88.6 KB/sec transfer rate) Upload Speed: 406 kbps (50.8 KB/sec transfer rate) Now, True sends me this link: http://www.trueinternet.co.th/testspeedmain.php All in Thai, but basically just press the GO button (that is for Bangkok). The speed from their test page consistantly shows about 1,900 kbps - so Test 1: 4149.466 Kbps Test 2: 1921.253 Kbps Test 3: 4147.902 Kbps Test 4: 4150.611 Kbps Hmm.... now the test speed is even higher. Still I think I would rather have the higher speeds that I saw for a few days to the ThaiVisa speed test site - the entire net was much quicker during that time. Cheers!

Khun_Kong 5 Posted April 5, 2007 Report Share Posted April 5, 2007 I went to the TRUE office at Asoke yesterday. I currently have the 1 Mb service, at 890 B/month. I also get full credit for every baht spent on my ADSL applied to a TRUE/Orange SIM card that they gave me for free. Bad news: the new promotion takes away the 890 baht/month credit on the SIM card. More bad news: they told me I am currently getting the highest service available in my neighborhood off soi Rangnaam. More disheartening news: I originally had, I believe, 2 Mb service. At least, I was paying for that. I dropped down to 1 Mb after never reaching anywhere near the paid for 2 Mb. Now I know why!!! (See "more bad news"). Fuckers!! If my max speed in my neighborhood is 1 Mb, why do they tell me before that I can have (and pay for) 2 Mb service! Fuckwads. Good news: I kept the 1 Mb service at 890 baht/month. I could have gotten my 1 Mb service dropped in price to 599 B/month, saving 300 B/month, but I get a bigger bang out of my "free" 890 B/month credit on my SIM card. Link to post Share on other sites
WorldFun 30 Posted April 6, 2007 Report Share Posted April 6, 2007 wow they credit your full internet price to your sim, which basically mean it's free provided you usually spend 890bt or more monthly on mobile phone charges where's the bad news in that exactly 555 Link to post Share on other sites
khunsanuk 346 Posted April 20, 2007 Author Report Share Posted April 20, 2007 Hi, Finally got round to applying for this today only to be told that I am too far. Fastest speed I can get is 1Mb (which I have now). I will be moved to the new package, but at the same speed, just cheaper (599 Baht instead of 890 Baht). Would have preferred increased speed though. Kinda pathetic as well that I can't even get anything higher than 1Mb. While I do not live that close to a main road, I do live in a fairly central area. Wonder how many areas can handle 4Mbit?
