  1. You might try asking them if you can pay their account in Thailand directly. All Visa Fee's paid to US based Thai Consulates are forwarded/paid into a Kasikorn Bank account (even though paid in USD) So if you let them know your in Thailand & can pay direct to their Kasikorn account & show verification it may be an option
  2. Because his is the first to lay with dogs & not have fleas ????
  3. I have often heard good quotes for WR Life but have not heard if they have a good track record of paying in Thailand or not? I mean their price even full coverage with no deductible is only less than $100 a year more than a $500 deductible/Excess Have you had any experience of filing a claim with them? Thanks
  4. Maybe if he walked in but air space is still closed (with good reason) Still current today Sept 2 -2023 https://www.gov.uk/foreign-travel-advice/ukraine
  5. No tips or advice but have only heard good reviews about that hospital Good Luck & Speedy recovery ????
  6. Exactly! Even the USA gives 6 months to most & it would be far easier to get lost in the USA with many States being as large or larger than Thailand in total
  7. Again good news & bad news Bad news....None replying here have any proof either way Good News...Eventually we all will ????
  8. It is also well known a heart can be run even when nobody is home...same for a body kept alive after brain death But who is saying life/soul what ever is the heart or brain or the body? All of those things existed before the fetus came to "life" as we tend to know it At 3.5 weeks, the fetus will have formed the heart, begins development of the brain and spinal cord, and starts forming the gastrointestinal tract. When expressed in terms of idealized gestational age, the human embryonic heart is said to start beating at 35 to 37 gestational days (sixth gestational week). So which came first the chicken r the egg? ????
  9. Seems fair enough to say there is life before birth so why not life after death? The shell/body /vehicle ...exists at first empty & then is inhabited by what ever you want to call it life/soul/etc etc. Why wouldn't that also be allowed to leave someday when the vehicle can no longer run?
  10. Pretty much the only way he would have returned in the first place
  11. ???????? This must be bizzaro world because since the coup it has been Thailand's journey into the twilight zone The fact that their coup constitution with the military appointed 250 BS senators has even now once again sealed Thailand's fate with more of the same & is just adding insult to injury
  12. Public Pools
  13. If your phone has wifi calling the Thai sim works outside of Thailand without roaming on or being charges roaming fees My wife's TruMove sim works in USA on wifi calling Same is true the other way round...I use a AT&T sim in Thailand with just wifi calling no roaming or charges
  14. All Bangkok Prisoners please raise your hand if you could use more Oxygen & a room Cooled By Fans......Ok Thank You we will get right on that ????
  15. Well of course most enjoy SS .. but the truth is SS was always a tax & most (if Lucky) receive way more back than they ever paid in. Which is why none should be 100% reliant on it as it cannot be guaranteed to continue forever. As to supposed benefits ....there are many for citizens living in country. Of course as you say less for Expats but that is basically the same as any other country & in fact still better than many US citizens abroad for instance get COLA upgrades to their SS while other countries freeze those out of country from getting cost of living adjustments to their form of pension/SS . US citizens abroad even got stimulus payments which is quite funny when you consider "stimulus payments" were given to stimulate the US economy ???? But yes living abroad is... as it should be ...mostly a get it your dang self service life . Besides so many left claiming they escaped a Nanny State so they shouldn't complain they don't get looked after abroad ????
  16. So if tomorrow the USA said...We have zero allegiance to those who live in xxx & we are stopping any SS payments to those ex-patriots..... you would be fine with that right ???? PS; I am not claiming allegiance to any country but I do accept the fact they do offer both patriots & ex-patriots alike many benefits
  17. I think most of the world would say it's Broken ????
  18. Thailand 250 Junta appointed BS Senators just chose a prime minister.
  19. There is precious little enough and as it is. Land should be for the living to use not for planting people in wooden boxes So for that reason I'm going with cremation
  20. Yes of course & that is what I am saying about that $500 policy for a 80 years old...meaning yes good if he doesn't have many preexisting exclusions, Believe it or not some folks are lucky that way...yes not the majority I am the person who also said that is understandable because if you were the owner of a insurance company you would not sell fire insurance to anyone with their house already on fire would you?
  21. Seems pretty understandable/reasonable No insurance company wants to sell fire insurance to someone whose house is already ablaze ???? At 80 years old $500/month prem would seem a good deal in most places As long as it is not riddled with exclusions due to preexisting problems. After all at 80 the Insurer knows this is going to likely cost
  22. Hopefully the Mods will move your question to either https://aseannow.com/forum/121-insurance-in-thailand/ Or https://aseannow.com/forum/23-health-and-medicine/ As you will likely get more answers but... Also you will find much info in those sub forum sections on insurance This topic does come up often & the takeaway seems to be buy from International based not Thai based companies for a more stable price & coverage. First given your age you may find it tough to find Thai based & if you do they will likely price you out of it in a couple years I am your age & have recently been looking at Cigna Global
  23. It does not matter where you are or how "they" are.....You can only do you You going to do what? What you know is "right" or use others behavior to justify joining their club?
  24. Could be true & it seems they got it but....Now it is your turn as you now have something to work out/pay back Their wrongs did not entitle you to also do wrong
  25. I guess if your under 65 you can get a quote If over 65 need the Switch Care policy If over 71 need the International Exclusive policy
