AbeSurd Posted December 14, 2012 Share Posted December 14, 2012 I went into Siam Commercial Bank today to renew my 'PA Happy' personal accident insurance policy with them. Last year it was 2900 baht for 100,000 baht of accident cover. This year they've changed it to a 'PA Happy Foreigner' personal accident insurance policy and the lowest band costs 6800 baht. And that's for either 60,000 or 100,000 baht of accident cover. (Sorry, my Thai isn't good enough to sort out which of the two figures applies). This is nothing to do with my age. The old lower price policy is simply no longer available to foreigners. So that's a price increase of over 100 percent. Needless to say, I am not a 'Happy Foreigner' - and didn't renew. Does anyone know what personal accident insurance (if any) the other banks are offering? I know Bangkok Bank used to offer something similar. Thanks. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chris2004 Posted January 21, 2013 Share Posted January 21, 2013 I wa going to take out the Kasikorn personal insurance but when you look at what it actually covers, and pays out, i don't think it was worth it. Motorcycle cover is part of the problem as that is by far the most likely way i will have an accident. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tango Posted April 9, 2013 Share Posted April 9, 2013 I read the BKK Bank PA form and the fine print states a farang must have a work permit, nothing about a 'retirement' visa. So being the latter, I did not apply. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Naphu Posted April 28, 2013 Share Posted April 28, 2013 I was talked in to paying 1 000 per year for a personal insurance when I opened my acount with Government Savings Bank last November. I just got 750 paid to my acount covering some of the costs after being bit by a dog. The owner had to pay for the first expenses at a local hospital.
