How to check Happy DTAC GPRS balance

Aug 052012

Do you want to check your Happy DTAC (Thailand) GPRS balance? It’s very easy to check your GPRS balance using the automated service.

Subscribers of Happy DTAC GPRS can check their remaining GPRS balance by calling the following number:

*101*4*9#

After calling the given number, I received the following message:

Your request is being processed. Please wait for the SMS confirmation within 24 hours.

Just a few moments later I received an SMS message confirming the remaining GPRS balance and expiry date:

Your remaining recurring Happy Internet in this period is 755.07 Minute and valid until 08:43 of 28-Jul-10. This package is remaining for 34 period.

I guess that the “34 period” referred to the number of days remaining before the balance expired.

If you extend your credit by 60 days, this will cost 60 baht and you will be given 60 free minutes. All free minutes will expire after 5 days.
