It's pre-authorisation. If you exceed the speed limit and get fined during the rental period, the fine will be deducted from the pre-authorisation.

Hello everyone, how do you handle navigation when driving? I bought a 7-day Happy Card (network traffic seems to be unlimited), and I want to pair it with the Google Map app. But I'm a little worried that the network traffic of the Thai Happy Card won't be powerful enough. I want to rent a Wi-Fi egg (do you have any suggestions for Wi-Fi eggs that are powerful? ) I saw a very powerful Wi-Fi egg on Taobao before, but after asking, it has a daily traffic limit of 500MB and cannot be used at high speeds. It doesn't seem very ideal ? Thailand Q&A

[Seeking Help] Honeymoon trip to Thailand in mid to late October. Need advice from experts. We have booked a honeymoon trip to the Mediterranean Club in Phuket in mid to late October. We have a few questions and would like to ask the experts: 1. Diving is the activity we most want to do. We saw in the guidebook that diving at Phi Phi Island costs only 600 baht, while others say it costs 2200 baht per person. What is the difference here? Does the higher price include professional diving instructors? Does the lower price mean the boat captain doesn't take care of you? My husband and I have never dived before, so please recommend a high-quality, safe, and cost-effective option. 2. We want to go shopping in Patong.. ? Thailand Q&A
