If I pay for a non-o visa and apply from the UK can I leave Thailand after the 90 Days for a week or 2 and apply for another non-o visa and return potentially doing this for a year ?
Answer summary
The user inquires if they can apply for a non-O visa from the UK, leave Thailand after 90 days, and continue this process for a year. Comments suggest that while technically possible, this strategy may not be sustainable as embassies could deny future applications. An alternative suggestion is to obtain a 1-year extension instead to save money and avoid complications.

Why wouldn't you just get the 1 yr extension and save a few thousand baht

You can do this yes, but it's not a viable strategy to live in Thailand. Eventually the embassies will stop selling you the visa.
