TLDR : Answer Summary
The discussion revolves around the types of insurance expats are using to qualify for various visas in Thailand. Several commenters note that any valid insurance covering Thailand will suffice, and recommend different providers like AXA and Luna/Tune. The conversations also point out that some people have had varying experiences with customer service from these companies. Additionally, there is a mention of the Thai General Insurance Association being a recommended option, yet not widely discussed among expats.

I booked AXA on their website and had a customer service disaster trying to deal with them. But, I'll admit that my story seems to be an exception and that

Whenever I see questions about inbound travel insurance nobody mentions the thai general insurance association which are the recommended insurance of thai consulate. Is the a reason for this? Am I missing something? And it's cheaper than other companies.

Luna/Tune is I believe the favourite amongst most expats. Arawan can organise this for you

There's a range of insurance products available depending on each person's individual situation. Hundreds of people have been using this lady, who is a broker representing a number of companies. Drop her an email for a quote

I used AXA for my STV which has more requirements than if you are applying for any other visa.

Any insurance will be approved as long as it covers you in Thailand, and they'll provide you a letter stating that.
