TLDR : Answer Summary
Yes, as a UK passport holder, you can perform a border hop after your TR visa to gain an additional 30 days of entry into Thailand. After that, you can apply for another 30-day extension at immigration, totaling approximately five months in Thailand.

Yep ๐Ÿ‘ you have the correct answer from Ellie ๐Ÿ™‚

Be sure to PRINT OUT the Evisa email you received. Save it and show it to the Thai Immigration Officer who greets you on arrival into Thailand.

These are the common found requirements for the 30 days extension of stay at your local Thai immigration office for 1900 Thai baht. Be sure to have a TM30 on file with Thai Immigration.

yes, as a UK passport holder, you can enter Thailand on visa-exempt for 30 days when you do border-bounce. As you explained, SETV and visa-exempt entry are eligible for 30 days tourism extension.
