are you paying daily for unwanted paid content SMS?
Re: are you paying daily for unwanted paid content SMS?
I'm on AIS. The only SMS messages I have ever received which are sort of advertising are from AIS trying to sell me special packages of calling units. Never from anyone else. And I don't see the ones from AIS very frequently at all, -- I'd say on average maybe one or two/month.

I believe this to be correct as i'm on Dtac and i don't get charged for any sms nonsense ,Barney wrote:I am DTac and went to top up my internet/phone today at Tesco on the ring road near the Nong Khai road and was told that I do not receive any SMS that I would pay for.

The sender ID number 4184500
This is the sms I received daily from AIS since I took up a new package 2 months ago.
It then shows up as a 155 baht charge on the monthly account. As VDO Mysic Movie download.
When challenged in depth they agree its them sending it and charging for it.
Last 2 months now fully refunded.

Re: are you paying daily for unwanted paid content SMS?
Few montha ago my Thai friend got billed for over 90 baht by True Move H for playing games on her phone. Of course she did not. A short trip to True Move at Central to clarify the situation. True claimed that someone using that phone had played games. My friend said that it was impossible, TRUE mentioned that maybe my friend had allowed someone else to use the phone, a relative, a young kid from the neighbourhood... etc. We asked to see a print- out of the times and dates my friend was supposed to have played games. There were several dozens connections in a matter of a single day.
On the spot they gave us a print and my friend categorically denied having ever played those games. The True Move lady said that she would report the matter to the Bkk office. 2-3 weeks later my friend got an SMS from True informing her that the Game Playing Charges had been droped.. No apology no excuse.. End of story

Heading into town tomorrow to pay my DTAC bill, will ask them about sms charges.
Just to make sure, you can never trust on source when dealing with a Thai business.

Re: are you paying daily for unwanted paid content SMS?
it appears that if using AIS 1-2-Call and you go up along the Mekong for some reason the Spam SMS seem to start up again.... Perhaps roaming out and back into the AIS system again.??

Re: are you paying daily for unwanted paid content SMS?
ok, paid my DTAC bill (562 baht) and confirmed that I haven't been charged for those spam sms.
they did block those sms's per request via computer........will have to see how that works out. though haven't rec'd a spam sms since.
talked to the supervisor and she gave me a card with that *137 number, but couldn't fully explain how to use it....so handed her my phone to use the *137 number as a backup.

Re: are you paying daily for unwanted paid content SMS?
Doing my DTAC pay-as-you-go monthly 299 baht data package renewal and always wondered where the balance of my monthly 400 baht top up goes. Looking at my history using their app, I see 10.7 baht "wallpaper" deducted pretty much daily (see below). I don't get any spam SMS on the service but I do get DTAC promo and "coin" messages almost daily which I ignore. I have just opted to turn off all notifications in the app to see if it stops the nonsense. The SIM is used for data only and has never had a voice package.

I was paying around that. Went to another vendor and told DTAC that I had a much cheaper alternative and wanted to port my number to True. Stayed with DTAC now but only pay 360 per month.Mosquito wrote: ↑December 10, 2016, 10:41 pmok, paid my DTAC bill (562 baht) and confirmed that I haven't been charged for those spam sms.

I had a bumper sticker in Texas that read 'Beam me up Scotty'. I often wish I could find one in Udon Thani
