Answer

Running out of data can be a hassle, but topping up is quite easy in Phuket. You can visit any 7-Eleven or FamilyMart, where staff can help you load more data onto your SIM card.

• Alternatively, many mobile providers have user-friendly apps that allow you to top up online with just a few taps. It's worth downloading the app of your chosen provider to manage your data easily.

• Keep an eye on your data usage; most providers offer ways to track this in real time, so you can avoid running low unexpectedly during your adventures.

Allow extra time for traffic and weather. Confirm the specific service on the day, agree prices or use an app where practical, and keep screenshots of bookings and pickup details.
