most retirees leave their 800 k in their home countries—if no tax is deducted there and its remitted to Thailand and they live here more than 180 days in the year—the interest is Taxed in thailand

All depends on personal circumstances but nothing to do with type of Visa—180 days or more in Thailand—everybody has different circumstances—so best consult a tax consultant

@Danny ******

well you not disclosing what the true issues are—so i am playing the guessing game from 35 years experience—anyway sent you the ombudsman’s details in a separate message—submit the complaint online or via email in writing—good luck💪💪

Only way to resolve it if they not listening to you—dont phone—put everything in writing—so they cannot dispute at a later stage—hope this helps💪💪💪

i was a qualified financial advisor for 35 years in South Africa and k ow how underwriters and claims work—my best advice without getting into specifics is to lodge a complaint with the ombudsman who will intervene and make a decision

@Danny ******

you need to elaborate why they are not paying—everybody is underwritten individually —its not a medical aid—so you need be specific about why they are not paying—too many different reasons they might have to settle the claims

Full disclosure is required at signing time —not at claim stage—Insurance is run as a business—they would all be out of business if they we paying out for non disclosed illnesses or conditions—ask for a copy of the terms and conditions from the company including ALL the exclusions you will be subjected too—BEFORE you sign

Rather consult a tax adviser—not unqualified fbook consultants👍👍👍
