I have never used them but have heard you can get a True Sim Card from 7/11,Family Mart and True ,I would imagine.
I baht a minute to phone the UK!!!
Maybe another member has used the True sim card???

Thanks for prompt reply ~~~ I was thinking more along the lines of where you type code i.e. 009 before the country code no etc and get a prefferential rate.

I have used this successfully in the past but does not seem to work now, perhaps a new code I am unaware of?

What about SKYPE ?! http://www.skype.com/intl/en/home (http://www.skype.com/intl/en/home)
Even though it has some down moments it is cheap and I use it all the time to make oversea phone calls.

Hi TBWG,
I use Skype on a preferential deal and find the service very good. However you could check out Lycamobile. I can call Thailand from Australia, mobile to mobile for a quarter of a cent per minute.
