Book early; it’s very crowded over Xmas & NYears.

they do state that a tourist visa isn’t a valid document to open an account.

I just paid an agent to do it for me😅 yes I paid an extra 1900 Baht but I saved myself more time to enjoy my stay in Thailand.

I do have a Supplemental Advantage Plan. I’ll re-read the stipulations in order to get the overseas/travel medical covered. When I did review it, there was something in it that wouldn’t work for me. It’s Anthem Blue Cross.

You didn’t dream it😅 the exchange places have denied even taking a $100 bill that was folded in half.

my nephew & his wife were blown away how expensive int’l schools were there. They have an 8 year old. Sadly, they had to give up on Bangkok.

@Josh **********

where in Thailand would you like to go? My nephew was looking at BKK but said the International school there was waaaay too expensive. But I’ve heard that the International school in KoSamui, up near Maenam/Fisherman Village area was quite reasonable.

I’m not talking rubbish because I’m talking about what works for me; not you. You are right, I know absolutely nothing about your bacterial infections. I’d be very relieved if I only had to pay 200 for an ambulance. In the US it would be double that and more. At any rate, your health care choices with whatever your conditions are, are your business. My choices are mine and work very well for me. I have enough money to cover any problem I might encounter in Thailand. And I’d gladly spend it there for the superior care😅

@John ********

that might work for me. I have an Advantage plan too. But Medicare is slowly but surely doing away with Advantage plans.

Amen! You got that right!!
