Roaming in Thailand
Added: 11.12.2023,
Updated: 12.12.2023,
Are you planning a trip to Thailand? Do you want to enjoy your trip without undue stress and therefore know that access to the Internet will make you feel more confident? Or are you going on a business trip, so internet is an absolute must for you? Nowadays there are many different alternatives to enjoy Internet access. Which one is worth opting for?
For many people, roaming is the basic, or rather the only and best solution. Yes, roaming is very convenient and certainly does not cause the slightest problem even for those who are not the most familiar with technological novelties. In addition, there is no need to look for a foreign SIM card, which may convince many people. This option also has the advantage of using the networks of well-known Polish operators, which means we don't have to rely on unknown networks.
However, are these minor advantages worth the price?
Personally, I think not.
Roaming bills can be a very unpleasant surprise to anyone, as the amounts are really huge. So much so that it may turn out that throughout the trip you will pay more for Internet access than for buying a trip with all the amenities.
Moreover, in the case of roaming, it is very difficult to control the amount of transfer used. After all, the bill will be issued after the Internet access service, not before it....
Wondering what it is about XOXO WiFi that stands out so pleasantly in the chart shown? It's an innovative solution that has recently appeared on the Polish market - if you haven't yet heard of XOXO WiFi routers, we're glad you have the opportunity to get to know them.
These routers operate in more than 140 countries around the world - including Thailand.
What amenities?
- Very simple to use. You can enjoy Internet access with just one click.
- Different packages depending on your expectations: 500 MB / 1 GB / 2 GB / 5 GB - this is a daily package that renews every other day.

How to order?
Just go to the XOXO WiFi website and fill out a short, very simple form. In it you need to specify, among other things, the direction of travel and its duration.
Other options for accessing the Internet in Thailand are, for example, free hotspots or Internet cafes. At the outset, it should be noted that this may be one of the cheapest solutions, but it also comes with the greatest dangers - such networks are devoid of basic security, so everyone becomes a very easy target for hackers. If you care about protecting your private data, definitely give up these options!
What's more, both in one case and in the other you are dependent on a particular location. After all, free hotspots can usually be found in hotels, cafes or public transportation, but you can't count on finding Internet everywhere.
Meanwhile, in the case of Internet cafes, you are addicted to a particular building.
The last option is SIM cards. However, if you decide on this option, it is worth checking a few things beforehand. For example, where you can buy such a card, whether it will be cheaper at the airport or, however, in the city....
When buying a SIM card, it is important to remember that a new operator = a new phone number. Thus, your relatives or customers and colleagues may have a problem to contact you. Also - one SIM card means one operator. If a fortuitous situation happens and your operator has an outage, you won't be able to connect to another network. Meanwhile, XOXO WiFi itself will automatically change the network to the one with the best coverage.
