Yep. I didn't have the complication of immigration visits, as they don't bother after they've done two or three.

You should have told Immigration your travel plans as they could schedule a house visit while your away and that could stuff your extension

- no house visit - that is not the issue

Bangkok do not tend to do visits …. In my last 15 years anyway
