a few people posted about receiving over the weekend as well as receiving in the middle of the night Thai time. Think they're working around the clock to catch-up. But once that ends wouldn't be surprised if it goes to business hours only.
I have a return ticket that departs long after my initial Thailand stay (because I will come and go over to other countries, returning to Thailand in the spring) so the argument could be made that I don't have flight bookings yet to make certain that I am leaving Thailand within the terms of the 1 month visa I will get. But as with many things, this is up to the discretion of the Immigration officer in BKK (and also airline staff at every check-in along the way). In fact having paper-work permitting one to enter any country is never 100% certain. It is the first step, we can still be denied entry. The final gatekeeper is when we present ourselves with our papers to Thai Immigration when we land.
good idea. Ive just spent hour and hours submitting my info. Reducing files and taking photos of a document just so it accepts. Who knows what will happen in response. Thing is you have to buy a ticket first then apply etc etc. FKN
