A.I.S. is who my Wife prefers. Not much difference as long as its a big company.Rule of Thumb,if the Vehicle costs 1Mill,expect a 24K Bill first year,then down to 22K after 12 Months on the road.

They're brokers and can help you with different insurance companies.

AIS is afaik not one of them, unless they have expended their business lately from telecommunications.

You are correct.Insured by SRI Ayudhya Generall from a Brokers office an AIS Building.

Chaz Insurance brokers hooked me up with LMG. A quite extensive coverage (higher than most other insurances) but there is a catch: natural disasters, terrorism and riots are NOT covered.

I asked a booklet of the insurance, negotiated etc... And got what I wanted.

The insured value was also of 940 K vs 910 by Axa and 840 K by Tokyo Marine (against a modest rise in my premium).

When buying a new car on finance is it a requirement to get the insurance via the car dealer? I got a quote directly from LMG which was cheaper and the coverage value a little higher than the policy provided by the dealer which was also through LMG, but was told by the dealer 'no no mr, you have to insure through us, it's policy with finance company'.

It often is so (was at Mitsubishi). But in general then, the first year insurance is given for free and you should ask that or walk away.

You can insure anywhere you like. Even if the insurance comes 'free' you can still get your own.

They've tried telling me that through the entire finance agreement period it has to be done through them. It's an outright lie to get commission from right?

You are right on the commission part. With regards to the "entire finance period", that's a blatant lie. I switched insurance in my second year and nobody had anything to say about it.

Yes, an outright lie. Not true even for the first year. I do inform my finance company about the insurance I choose myself though, and give them a copy of the first page of the policy.

I did change the insurance provider as well for my second year and the premium was 6000 Baht less...and better coverage....

Does that loan agreement stipulate you have to buy insurance through them or not? Did you read it?

Funcat, change to who?

From Viriyah(22K) to Allianz(16K).

With Viriyah now, will try Allianz. Thanks!

Nope. I've not bothered opening any mail from them as yet. It will likely have been in thai anyway.

At the time I thought she was full of it but couldn't be bothered with kicking up a fuss. It will be fun once the first year is up and the dealer starts calling to confirm renewal.
