QUOTE(paskal @ Dec 20 2022, 05:12 PM) The most recommended telco simcard for us tourist is DTAC. There's a few option ranging from AIS and Tru. But most people would recommend DTAC. I also only use DTAC when I'm in Thailand. Current DTAC tourist package is 7 days at 15mps unlimited usage for 150 baht. True not bad.. I got full 4G reception even at the border side of Myanmar from Maesot to Mae Hong Soon, nowadays 5G tower had already been constructed near those rural borders these days.. in the nutshell, does not matter what telco you choose, 80% of signal coverage is good in Thailand..

» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « QUOTE(paskal @ Dec 20 2022, 05:09 PM) A better option (during high season/school holiday) is to ride further north from Changlun and cross at Padang Besar.  Nobody is at Songkhla Customs when there's hundreds of people at Sadao. Or, Durian Burung and Ban Prakop if you willing to add 30 km more of your journey to Hatyai.. Here most of Thai Immigresyen and kastam officer can speak Southern Thai Malay slang.. https://goo.gl/maps/Fr24HLPjjFHnHP528If die2, want to cross BKH-Sadao.. Start your journey so when reach there after 8 PM, (The BKH - DAnok border closes at 11 PM Thai time or 12 PM Malaysia Time) This post has been edited by ajaibman: Dec 20 2022, 05:45 PM

A guy in FB say DTAC prepaid can be extended to 365 day validity for 10 baht. Gonna try that. Don't need to keep on buying new number everytime cross over.

And its closer if you're heading towards Pattani.

And don't speed on Thai roads even though looks clear and no traffic. Beside it slippery even during dry. Those siamese speed trap cameras are autonomous these days, no more manual tembak like in Malaysia. Speeding summon, 500 bht pay on the spot.
