Entire 3 Group launches ‘3LikeHome’ cheap roaming in Thailand
The 3 Group, with mobile network services in Denmark and Sweden as well as Austria, Italy, Ireland, and the UK, is now offering its cheap “3LikeHome” roaming service when visiting Thailand. 3LikeHome
It means 3 customers can use their phones in Thailand just like at home in Europe. This expands the number of countries under 3LikeHome to 53. There is no longer a need to buy a local SIM card when arriving in Thailand. 3 customers enjoy the same convenience in Singapore, Indonesia, Hong Kong, and China.
3LikeHome is included in all 3’s mobile broadband subscriptions for retail customers and in some services for business customers.
3LikeHome covers traffic on any network in the partner countries, incoming and outgoing voice calls from/to Danish and local numbers, texts and MMS to Danish and local numbers, and up to 10 GB of mobile data for 30 days from the customer’s usual package. Calls to numbers in foreign countries other than the one where the customer is, are charged at the normal overseas rates.
