That maybe so, suit your needs. But there's some advantage to retain same sim no. You might not want to miss out on your lobangs contacting you (or forget you)
My AIS 123 sim has been with me years now. There's some prepaid plan to extend validity beyond the standard 1 month (depending on top up value too). So for example, last year I still had my validity to mid 2015. Didn't have to top up more than >thb100-200. So comes in 'handy' in next trip (can roam here with Singtel here too). Or simply get your trusted lobang to top up the minimum locally.
For data sim (my remote work device ipad), not so straightforward with validity only 1 month. So I just top up on arrival at airport (or Telewiz shop) riding on same data plan.
T99, I know there's plenty 3rd parties for topping up voice sim. Any reliable site for data sim as AIS webbie does not accept non-Thai plastic? Think this is no can do, as need to renew or extend data plan (interface with customer care unit).
