TLDR : Answer Summary
The conversation centers around the experiences of individuals using agencies to facilitate land border runs into Thailand. According to comments, agencies typically help ensure that entry is smooth by having prior arrangements with immigration officials and vetting clients based on their visa history. Participants indicate that it's unlikely to be denied entry when using these services, as agencies generally do not take on clients they believe may be refused re-entry.

Why would anyone being denied entry when using an agency? The whole purpose of using an agency is not being denied entry.

If an agency cannot guarantee re-entry they won't take you. They look at your history first. A while back they were declining anyone with an ED or Volunteer stamp in their passport

No. That's the entire point. These agencies have contacts with immigration, and often send the passport information of everyone that they will be taking to get it approved by the officers at the border. Then when they arrive everything is already arranged to facilitate a quick out and back in. The officers have already received their special contribution to help with this.

you fill out this form and then go to second page. Then choose fast track / VIP entry option. Sorry I don't know the exact name they use. But once you submit the form they'll contact you because they need to see your entire passport to get the price from the airport officers.

How in the hell would they help u cross? My first time to cross into Thailand I had to walk back to the crossing by foot in order to be checked in. Nobody helped me. The driver had a special license plate that allowed travel to and from Thailand and Indonesia.
