roamer Posted May 5, 2010 Share Posted May 5, 2010 Could have saved yourself the trouble. Tesco, Liverpool Victoria, quite a few others, cover Thailand without excluding Bangkok. standard price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sunbelt Asia Posted May 6, 2010 Share Posted May 6, 2010 Some people are indeed having problems finding it. Have one customer arriving on the 27th who e-mailed today saying he couldn't find coverage. Would be good if there was a place with a list of what is still available. www.sunbeltasia.com 26th Floor Fortune Town BR, 1 Ratchadapisek Rd, 10400 Bangkok Tel: 02-642-0213 Fax: 02-641-1995 Follow us on: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ukrules Posted May 6, 2010 Share Posted May 6, 2010 The FCO should list every insurer who offers policies for Thailand / Bangkok on their website along with the warnings they are making. It wouldn't be too much work the companies who offer it would scramble to get their name on the list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a slippery road that one. Before you know it the insurance companies would be dictating the site content. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roamer Posted May 6, 2010 Share Posted May 6, 2010 a massive red herring, this one. Very few policies, have a caveat against the travel warnings that have been in place. "All but essential travel." Most of them stop at the warning "all travel." The devil is in the detail, and most people haven't really been reading it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is what I was thinking, unless they specifically define essential it's wide open to interpretation. Lots of people would define essential as their two week holiday a couple of times each year, a major deal that needs to be closed by a certain deadline or perhaps a sales meeting which if missed would make your company appear unreliable and not committed to the task you have undertaken. The list is endless. Edited May 6, 2010 by ukrules Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
