We haven't paid yet, probably in the morning.  That will be interesting, eh!  I have heard various stories of people managing to pay in one office, while payment is refused in another *shrug*

Shutterbug, Willy got back from the conference on Thursday last week.  He IS on to it.  I hope there is news soon.  If I hear anything I will post it.

Here's the latest message.  Slowly slowly, but things are happening.


"William has given the translated letter from the NHS to the Director General of the SGK and he is calling a meeting to discuss the letter etc. When William read the letter to the D G he said that it was good and all seemed ok but of course there has to be a meeting to discuss and hopefully approve the letter then all should, we hope, be ok."

OK, here's the latest:  My friend Lynda had been speaking to Willy at the British Consulate, he said SGK Healthcare is going to become compulsory to Residence Permit holders (as was threatened summer 2010).  Those who haven't got it yet will have to have a medical.  Willy will be putting all the info on the British Consulate site in the next month.  I believe that those who already have Bag Kur, will not have any problems.  I don't have any more info, sorry.  We will have to wait for the update on the Consulate site.

I spoke to Willy yesterday and he told me that the Director had informed everyone that if they are resident there is no problem and that I should go to the Fethiye office and have no trouble being re instated. Wrong. Woman in chargh, although a little less rude, maybe because I had lost my balance and had fallen again with a big lump on my head, said I had to get a letter from the local Consular office in Fethiye, but not until today. I came home and looked up the website and sure enough, Ahmet had a training session in the am. Called in PM and unfortunately 2 Brits have passed away this week and he was really busy. Said to call him on Thursday. Called Willy today and he said no, go back and tell the woman if she did not re instate me immediately to call Mustafa Juruca the Director General in Ankara,or Ibrahim Geveval (sp?) his assistant. If she refuses he also wants a letter in writing from her. Apparently Mugla has been a pain to everyone. He said mine should never have been cancelled in the first place. Will let you know what happens tomorrow, assuming I last that long. ;-)

@Rindaloo, interesting development regarding the compulsory Bagkur. What do you mean with "those who haven't got it yet will have to have a medical"?
Do you mean that everybody will get a medical examination in order to qualify for the insurance? (like many of the private insurance companies do)
