Keep scrolling Doodoo. This gal represents a few different companies, and if you scroll you will see the ones for which he can qualify. One of them is Wr Life.

Rather than having the readers scroll through various postings looking for things it would be a suggestion to point this out when the original posting appears.

It will be interesting to hear from any member with health insurance from WRlife, who have had claims satisfactorily settled by them, if they experienced any premium increases on their subsequent renewals with WRlife.

I have a WR Life health policy Tam .. fortunately i have had to use it but Steve formerly of Tbar fame who is the broker in Udon called me to explain a change being implemented with regard to premiums and claims , i requested he email me the details which he promptly did.... i did also ask Steve about any claims that had been made using the WR life policy mainly to find out which hospital location is the best to attend in the event of needing medical attention , he confirmed he had overseen approx 10 claims for policy holders in Udon hospitals and all had been dealt with very well and no problems were encountered.

Below is the email Steve sent me

Hello Jon

I wanted to inform you about a recent addition to the WrLife policy that you should be aware of. This change may have an impact on your coverage, so it's important to take note of it.

I think this is an important update that you need to know. In the event of a claim amounting to less than $10,000 during the insured year, the premium for the following three years will increase by 3% each year. On the other hand, if the claims exceed $10,000 (lifetime), the premium will increase by 3% annually for the entire duration of the policy. However, if there are no claims made, the premium will remain the same.

I understand that this change may have an impact on your coverage and premium. I hope that the increase in premium, if applicable, will not cause too much inconvenience for you. If you have any questions or concerns regarding these updates, please don't hesitate to reach out to me.

Best regards,
Stephen

Shopping around as Pacific Cross just "age banded" me on my renewal and hiked my premium ~20% despite the 10% no claims bonus.

I use a company called CORIS, no age ban there.
If you google it I think you will find out that they are based in Slovakia. Many Swedish people here in Thailand use them.
