    To the OP "The Dutch Engineer", I would just like to say well done in your dogged determination and the best of luck with your case. Massive respect.

    I think you missed the whole point on this one. It has nothing to do with money or insurance. It is all about the discrimination,which is illegal under the constitution.

    Very interesting read, this bit says it all ....     "While foreigners from other ASEAN nations pay the same rates as [Thai] citizens, fees go up significantly for the third group – whi

starting at 10,000 baht per month for me, but then again, the 10,000 baht per month covers me for 40,000,000 baht, so best I shut up.....pay for what you expect....no public hospitals for me, I'm special ????

I didn't know they could be claimed back?

Yes...I got 22k deposited into my bank,but i didn't know that i could have kept paying the 750 Bht/Mth to stay in the Thai SS System,which i would have done,there are many things that Expats are probably entitled to,but nobody informs them about you would think organisations like the Pattaya Expats Club would/should know these things,and keep lòcal Expats up to speed with them.

    Because of this precedent, there is no chance that insurance companies 
will also adjust their policies and consequently their prices for foreigners.
    I Think it's a normal reaction. An expat is now legally charged x number of times more.
