No nothing to see here. No problem. Pssst... wanna buy a condo?

Da Roadrunner here will have died long before that;- heart attack whilst humping some 18 year old bar girl.... He came and he went!

I returned to Thailand last Sept' and have a new Retirement Visa since then. But none of this seems relevant as no matter the circumstances, in 20 years I have only managed to do it online once!

We tried repairing em years ago in the UK but the repair did not last long. Maybe things have improved? Is there anywhere in Thailand that repairs ecu?

In 20 years, only once have a been able to do the 90 day report online. I can submit and they e mail me to confirm acceptance of application. Then a couple of days later comes and e mail..... rejected (with no explanation or reason why)

Am finding that cover is full of holes like Swiss cheese. Specific diseases are not covered. There is a 1 year moratorium on some conditions before cover commences. So you have to pay for your first year and these items are not covered. Last December I had an accident where a car ran over me. The driver's insurance company representative came to Bumrungrad Hospital and told me the driver's insurance covered me. Now, months later, comes a bill from Bumrungrad, whose cashier originally accepted the insurance.

It is a long time since I worked in the motor trade but ecu only needs to be plugged in to your car. Programming ecu with a laptop is only done by those wanting to modify their car. Repairing ecu seldom goes well, buy a new one or a used one from a breakers yard. Several models may use the same ecu. So long as the part number on the ecu matches, you can use it. 170000 baht .... Jesus!

But do they know what they are doing? I have often thought that the Thais should not be let loose on something as complex as medicine and the other countries you mention are likely worse. I hear Singapore General Hospital is good.... but the cost?

Is there one in Bkk or Phuket?

Point taken but.... Have you seen what Thai hospitals are charging now? Not to mention some charging Farangs double.

Hello Sheryl. Age 70. No pre-existing conditions.

I am totally satisfied with my Dentist

I would like recommendations for Health Insurance companies. Looking for proper insurance at the most reasonable cost. How do the Thai companies compare with foreign insurance? Do any provide real cover or is it full of more holes than Swiss cheese? Thanks to all for your comments.

Does not matter what legal rights a Farang has. If the Thais want to beat you up and take what is yours then they will do it. Welcome to the land of smiles.
