My choice would be to purchase insurance in the UK and then abide by their claims rules in the event of a claim.

Reference NancyL's post - I am a UK citizen residing in Thailand and at 70 years of age I was able to obtain Health Insurance from CIGNA although admittedly I pay £250 monthly for 2m baht cover and if admitted to hospital, a one off payment of £2000.

I question your friend's use of the HSBC security facility. I have an HSBC account and security facility which works fine in Thailand. I suspect he just stopped paying his Student Loan and is using the HSBC facility as an excuse!

Why not do it 'online' by using one of many 'unlock mobile' companies.

My 13 digit ID number in my yellow book starts with a 6 and ends in a 0 issued at Bangna Amphur office.

Many years ago, I purchased a house in Cha-am in my then g/f's name. It was a holiday home and she subsequently disappeared. I consulted a Thai lawyer, had all the receipts, etc for the house and furniture, and was told my claim was not pursuable.
