Why would you tell someone not to get medical insurance for Thailand?

You don't have to use a Thai company. An insurance company in your own country is ok, and maybe even cheaper.

I got my OA using insurance from my own country

Do you need to pay for Thai health insurance before applying?

What if the visa is declined, and you have already paid?

That's correct David, I don't want to break any rules or wrought the system. But the Thai embassy in NZ informed me there was no limit as long as I don't overstay.

I'll apply for a visa next time I leave to be safe. I tend to spend more time here than other countries.

I'm retired but like moving around between countries so don't really want to get a retirement visa. Malaysia gives me 3 months and Philippines are happy to keep extending.

Everyone has different reasons. I'm not ready to sit in one spot for the rest of my days.
