Phone number changes

[bytheriver 0]

I have heard that an extra number (8?) needs to be inserted when calling cell phones now in Thailand. Tried to get an explanation via email, but was not able to really comprehend the broken English to figure it out. If calling from the US, where does the extra number fall in? Thanks.

It's a piece of cake! The 8 goes after the country code... just dial

66 Country code

8 This is the new addition

xxxxxxxx The number to your friend.

 

So now you will dial +66 8 12345678

 

Enjoy!

Thanks. That is simple enough. Now I am laughing about how it was explained to me in the email; it all makes sense now.
