cavanami Posted June 26, 2006 Report Share Posted June 26, 2006 I have had 1-2 Call for 5 ~ 7 years, don't remember exactly how long anymore. For sometime now, I get 6 months when I refill with 500 Baht. I never got 1 year or at least I never noticed that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

limbo Posted June 28, 2006 Report Share Posted June 28, 2006 DTAC promotion makes minutes last longer Total Access Communication (DTAC) has introduced a new prepaid call package featuring a one-year validity period, in response to the impending telecom rules issued by the national telecom regulator. Under the promotion, DTAC is offering a new SIM card called "Simple" for Bt199. It features a flat rate of Bt2 per minute and gives subscribers up to a year to use the time they purchase. Usually, prepaid refill cards are valid from a few days to three months, depending on the promotion. The National Telecommunications Commission (NTC) has finished drafting regulations governing standard telecom service contracts. One clause bans telecom operators from setting fixed validity periods for all prepaid telecom services. This is to prevent telecom companies from urging subscribers to quickly use up the minutes they purchase before their prepaid cards expire. Some telecom operators have said the NTC's measure would encourage subscribers to be active call takers, instead of callers, which could hurt their profits. Thana Thienachariya, DTAC's chief commercial officer, said that the new package would generate Bt200 to Bt300 in average revenue per user per month and attract 1 million new subscribers. DTAC, the country's second-largest cellular operator, has around 10 million customers and expects 2 million new subscribers this year.

.. Posted June 29, 2006 Report Share Posted June 29, 2006 Of course I read this a day after I buy a 1-2 Call SIM for a spare phone. Oh well. In case anyone is interested, the SIM was B250 that included B50 credit. Got it from the TeleWiz Shop in Emporium. Once activated, it had three weeks of validity (to 17 July). Adding B500 to it gave me an additional 60 days (to 17 Sept). Cheers, SD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
