What are you talking about? You're too hot.

Give yourself a neck massage.

Cassius Kingsley same boat as me

Oh, and neither of us are kids.

Weeks ago, I already sent my documents, but before that, I expressly went to my bank to ask, and if I don’t send them, what happens? They said, "No, nothing happens." Kasikorn.

You make things up

@James *******

They have mass tourism, so they decide what they do and when they do it there is nothing more to say.

Make it easy because things have changed. So, we move things forward. Be proactive. To be able to show: cash money. 20k/30k THB cash.Those small amounts ease the few minutes you’re in front of the officer. Showing money makes you friends quickly. I wouldn’t stand in front of an officer with just my face and nothing else. Don’t let them think like a strict current officer. Also show: your accommodation reservation, your balance. In short, not just your hairstyle.

There are probably two or three visits a year, I think three is too many, so show your money.

Not in thailand..ok

I have decided to contact only brokers.

I made a list.

Why is it better to use a broker?

Using a broker is a better option because they work independently from insurance companies and can offer unbiased recommendations based on your specific needs. They compare multiple policies from different providers, ensuring you get the best coverage at the most competitive price. Additionally, brokers can assist with claims, policy adjustments, and understanding the fine print of your insurance plan, making the process smoother and less stressful.

I had an existential question related to insurance companies when it comes to hiring. What is better, to contact a broker or to contact a specific company one by one?

I believe both situations are trained to assist you. However, when it comes to payment:

It depends on the customer. A company provides a call center for services when needed.

Contacting a broker is easier for communication or a local visit.

Both are trained on the benefits and conditions.

But I recommend that the payment should be made directly to the insurance company's account.

In general, payments should be made directly to the insurance company. However, in some cases, a broker may offer additional services, such as managing the payment and processing the policy, in which case the payment would be made through the broker, who would then forward it to the insurer.

It is important to check with the broker and the insurer how the payment will specifically be handled to avoid any misunderstandings.

Plans in Thailand.

Health and accident plans:

Plan 1-2:

Requires:

Passport

6 months to 1 year visa

Full coverage for accidents

Requires more conditions and documentation due to broader benefits.

Plan 3-4:

Requires:

Only passport

Offers different and more limited benefits compared to Plans 1-2.

All plans:

Offer monthly payment options.

Summary of why and how:

Why:

Plans 1-2 have more requirements (6 months to 1 year visa) because they offer more complete coverage, including accidents. This means the insurer needs to verify that the applicant has more stable residency and a long-term commitment to the country.

Plans 3-4 are more basic, so they only require the passport and are easier to access, but with fewer coverage or benefits.

How:

Depending on the amount of coverage and benefits you need, you can opt for a more complete plan or a more basic one. If you prefer full coverage with all benefits, Plans 1-2 would be the most suitable, but if you only need basic coverage, Plans 3-4 might be enough.

What I have found out: it means that the health and accident plans they offer are quite similar in coverage to other companies in Thailand. However, some differentiate in two aspects:

Monthly payment with no additional charges: They offer the option of monthly payments with no extra fees.

Health concierge department: They have a department that helps policyholders compare medical treatment costs and assist in choosing hospitals, which can be helpful if you need medical care and want to compare prices.

This seems to be an added value that these companies provide compared to others.
