Once you have submitted a visa application online UK and paid for it can you cancel that application. I know it's non refundable
Answer summary
Once a UK visa application has been submitted online and payment has been made, it cannot be directly cancelled through the online system. To withdraw the application, one must contact the embassy, though this process may be complicated due to the short turnaround time for visa issuance. An alternative approach suggested by users is to simply refrain from any action, although this would delay the application removal from the system.

if I do nothing I have to wait 14 days for it to be removed from the system and I don't want to wait another 14 days.

No, you’re required to visit Thailand or you will be hunted down by Interpol.

There's no way in the online system to cancel it. You would have to contact the embassy, but they usually issue visas in 2-3 days so it may be difficult

I have applied for the wrong visa so they are asking for documents I can't submit.

ah then you should have the email address they sent you a request for. Reply and ask them to cancel your application. Or else they'll cancel it after a certain amount of time but I don't know how long that would be.

yes they cancel after 14 days but I am trying to travel before then that's why I want to cancel and reapply for the correct visa.
