There are bank fees involved and it takes a few days. If you are in Bangkok you can also use the 'Bank Transfer' method. The beauty is that once set up you can add as many other skype accounts as you like and keep them all topped up.Īs I said before, the Skype voucher is available in the UK, not Thailand. With the Skype manager ir is really very easy, and only 10 minutes to set up on line. You can only have one skype account per credit card or paypal account which makes life difficultI and setting up a second payPal account with out a credit card is difficult too. I have been down the same path before tryig to set up Skype accounts for members of my dfailiiy while working away from home I think I need to buy a Thai sim card for her, and next week a Malaysian sim card, what a pain in the ass. Thanks, not heard of those, I need to google a bit, I assume thay are like disposable FairFX? Great idea, I have FairFX and have considered that in the past for ATM withdrawals. I have no Thai bank account, the skype voucher sounds good, can I purchase them in BKK? "Thai Bank debit card or Purchase a Skype voucher" I need to investigate that one, sounds complex, why is my Girlfriend denied the ability to pay herself! "Define a "business account" for yourself" In any case I want her to be financially independant. I tried that one first, but a credit card can only be attached to one Skype account. "Treat the account as your own and pay for it yourself" The Skype problem is similar to an earlier issue when she wanted a computer game for her laptop, I sent her a Paypal "Gift" so she could buy and download a legitimate copy for herself, the purchase needed to be made and downloaded on her laptop, but Paypal would not allow the purchase without an attached credit card.Įffectively she was blocked from paying for a legitimate copy, her only option seemed to be a pirate copy from friends. All sales are final.Thanks, there are a lot of good ideas there.Ī bit more info first, my Girlfriend (Fiance actually) is a Filipina, and we are both in Bangkok at the moment on one of our regular holiday trips. Skype is not a telephone replacement service. No emergency calls can be made using Skype. No cash redemption, except where required by law.
