Thanks for posting.  WRLife are doing a lot of marketing especially on Facebook, but so far not much anecdotal evidence of claims being met with minimal fuss.

I first noticed them from their Advertorial on the Insurance in Thailand Forum. I both contacted them and purchased the policy through their office in Paris, France, no  broker involved.

    You're being exploited. Just imagine what you're premiums will be in your 70's at that rate, your income wont cover the daft premium.    My intention is to stay in Thailand until about 70 at

Just as an update to the op as at first I was sceptical about the quoted figures of insurance premium.

 

I had a longer discussion with Passportcard directly as last year my premium increased by 43% after my 60's birthday. After directly asking them about future premiums I was told that upon renewal in 3 months from now my premium will be increased again by more than 40% because of  blah blah blah sharply increasing costs of healthcare in Thailand, inflation and so on. That means  I will have to pay the double amount than beginning 2021 similar to the op.

 

However, Passportcard  was in my opinion a low cost insurer compared to other companies and with age 60 premium is catching up with unusual high increases. As I was told that every 5 years a new age group will bring a large increase I will also have keep this in mind as at some point premium will not be longer affordable with increases in age groups.
