Please help. So I am currently in Thailand as a UK citizen on the visa exemption for 30 days, I would like to extend for an additional 30 days at an immigration office here but they recently dropped the use of TM6 (arrival/departure) card for arrivals into Thailand so I didn't get one when they stamped my passport on the way in but as I understand you need this doc for the extention? Anyone else done this? Thank you x

you are confusing two things. IF you arrived after the suspended the TM6 arrival/departure card program you can still get an extension just don't put anything on the TM7 application in the Departure card spot.

Go to your immigration office and apply for a 30 day extension for 1900baht like normal
