What makes this package special:
Most Thai Telecom providers offer a slightly higher maximum speed (barely noticeable for the average user) for the first few GB’s of usage. Onced you have reached your maximum usage you can still enjoy unlimited internet but at a throtteled speed of anywhere between 128 / 384 Kbps. This speed is experienced as ”very slow / slow” when browsing the internet.
The Co Connected package offers a stable and unlimited high speed at 4 Mbps (experienced as ”fast / very fast”) during the entire duration of your package regardless your usage: worry-free & fast!

Recommended for when you are also doing a bike tour with Co van Kessel. They register and install everything and you get to keep your WhatsApp number too. Coverage across Thailand is stable and the internet speed is very fast and doesn’t drop untill the end of your package which is perfect with kids watching YouTube … Highly recommended!
Co van Kessel Bangkok –
Hi Patrick, thank you for reviewing and recommending our travel SIM-card. Glad you (and the kids) enjoy the worry-free access to fast internet during your travels. Hope you had a great time in Thailand!

Gemakkelijk, werkt allemaal zoals verwacht en verder geen omkijken naar! Het internet is niet alleen unlimited maar blijft ook 15 dagen lang snel, onafhankelijk van gebruik. Tijdens vorige keer vakantie een tourist SIM van Dtac (dacht ik) gekocht waar de snelheid na 4 GB geknepen werd en verschrikkelijk traag werd.
Co van Kessel Bangkok –
Hi Anne, bedankt voor je positieve berichtje! De standaard tourist SIM van andere providers knijpen inderdaad na enkele GB’s de snelheid tot 128 / 384 Kpbs. Wij hebben een dusdanige package samengesteld dat je je geen zorgen hoeft te maken over je gebruik of snelheid. Hopelijk heb je een super tijd gehad in Thailand!
Robin De Ridder –

If you ever have the chance to visit Bangkok please take this tour and ask for Cola and Anna. Both our tour guides. We have seen during this tour so much of Bangkok I surely recommend this. The tour should be doable for everybody, the bikes are very good to ride on. Really I enjoyed this very much, one more thanks to both our tour guides Cola and Anna.

Echoing the previous comments, you change the SIM card and you are ready to go! They take care of the registration and of the installation. The coverage across the entire Thailand is very good and the internet speed is very fast, highly recommended for sure !

Super genoten van de 15 dagen Simcard tijdens ons verblijf van 16 dagen. Veel gebruikt en dus kom ik bij de volgende Thailand reis zeker weer langs.

The cards were installed by Co v.K. staff on our phones before the bike tour on our first day in Bangkok. Initially everything was fine, but one card stopped working after 48hrs. During a 2nd visit to the office it appeared that the top-up package was initially forgotten. The issue was resolved quickly and the connection is reliable and fast all around Thailand.

Wij gingen de dag na aankomst fietsen met Co. Ideaal om dan meteen je kaartje te laten registeren en installeren. Ik zelf had een dualsim telefoon waarvan ik niet eens wist hoe het zou moeten werken. Maar dat wisten ze bij Co wel. Binnen 15 minuten was ik online. Na drie dagen kreeg ik problemen met mijn internetverbinding. Ik heb Co toen een mailtje gestuurd en de volgende dag werd ik gebeld. Telefonisch hebben we samen het account opnieuw geactiveerd. Probleem opgelost, terwijl ik aan de andere kant van Thailand was. Ik heb de internetverbinding ook als hotspot voor mijn laptop voor werk gebruikt. Heel stabiel en voldoende snel. Al met al een goede koop.
