  1. You seem to put an awful lot of confidence in one review, the thrust of which was that the company was a broker and not an "insurance company." Do you really believe all these links to so-called insurance companies are not brokers?
  2. Good points all. But I have my policy papers, and I have a hunch the kind folks at immigration won't be worried. The president of the company, who is French, has lived in Thailand for 31 years. In 45 years of business, I've been fooled once or twice, but I'm a pretty good judge of character. Anyway - I have the piece of paper I need, and it didn't cost me thousands of dollars. If one believes that paying more for a big name will truly get you more "safety" - go for it. I've had dealings with big name insurance companies. Know how they afford those big names? Just like Vegas casinos get built. I don't trust big-name insurance companies any more than my Aunt Fannie. If the Thai immigration decide to turn me away, I'll be right back here to admit I was wrong. But I'll take bets right now the difference between "the bigs" and this company is nothing more than a website grammatical error.
  3. This might be a matter of semantics - or culture. We Americans are very familiar with "Mutual" insurance companies. The insured own shares in the company, and technically have a say in management. In this case, the point is that the company exists for the purpose of serving a customer base that has traditionally be gouged, rather than a shareholder base that demands high returns. But again, none of this is important to me. Like so many others, I just want the piece of paper that the Thai apparatchiks demand, to get back to my family. And I don't want to pay thousands of dollars for what I don't want, and don't need.
  4. Finally - a rational response. Look into it. Do the math. Do the due diligence. Make up your own mind. Wonderful. Apparently though, don't bother trying to share some helpful advice with others on this forum. You'll just get slammed for it.
  5. And BTW, comments from those who have had dealings with them are starting to come in. Sure doesn't seem negative to me at all.
  6. You haven't read the rest of the snarky and accusatory comments, have you?
  7. People (like the founders of WrLife) who try to shake up a corrupt industry always have to deal with doubters and deniers. It couldn't possibly be true that an insurance company could be successful by offering what people need at a reasonable cost, without the equivalent of "looting" during a pandemic. Could it?
  8. Man, if I thought it was all about me, I wouldn't have posted in the first place. I posted an honest opinion after months of fruitless effort to find a responsible, reasonable insurance company that offered what I needed at a price I could afford. Of course - I get flamed for it. LOL. Do what you want. Life's too short.
  9. What people on this site do not seem to understand is that I don't give a rat's hairy pattoot about my "dealings" with them. I don't need insurance. I don't want insurance. I want to get back to my family. Whoever gives me a piece of paper that an apparatchik stamps is fine with me. What I'm not going to fall for is the insane B.S. of these mega-insurance companies selling me the fake idea that I'm so safe with them because I pay more. You wanna fall for that? Be my guest.
  10. Couldn't agree more. What I find so hilarious is that so many folks on this site think that by paying more for a "name" that "claiming" will be easier. I got news for you all. My chance of making a claim is the same as yours. The only difference is, I get back to my family for a pittance of what you all pay for the skyscrapers and the advertising. No thanks. In the end - it's nothing but a piece of paper than a $12,000-a-year lackey makes for stamping entry permits. Don't you get it? The whole thing is a scam. Those who pay the least for what they want and need are winners. The rest? Sleep tight.
  11. You think your little piece of paper is "safer" than mine? By all means - pay thousands for nothing. I'll get back to my family for $57 bucks, and you'll rest easier knowing know paid thousands for what turns out to be a worthless piece of <deleted>.
  12. Oh. Right. Facebook. The grand arbiter of all that's true. Please.
  13. Your choice. I did my research. You can do yours. Or not. In the final analysis, you, and I, and everybody else on this website knows the only thing that matters is a piece of paper that a Thai immigration officer will accept. Happy to update you on my arrival back with my family - actual "insurance" be damned. No such thing - from any company.
  14. Great. You're free to pay extortionate prices to somebody else for things you don't want and don't need. Best to you.
  15. I don't trust anybody who attempts to force me to pay for something I don't want and don't need. End of story.
