Didn’t want to leave by air as done that months ago and didn’t question it but just asked where I go after I told them Cambodia then asked me where after that was surprised as I’m out Thailand but just told them UK and they let me in this was first ever time leaving and coming back next day this was day before the 60 day visa came to light I believe that was 14/15 July . Fast forward few month I go to satun border at Malaysia and was amazing process fast and efficient back in car with in 5 minutes and away home got 3 months now my 3 months runs out today, lastnight I leave Korat with Mrs get flight Phuket and do another border run to satun was bit skeptical as didn’t want any problems and thought might ask questions why stayed long (legit though) but got there today 7am check out Thailand stamped in and out of Malaysia and stamped 60 days (90 if extend ) and was back in car less 5 mins even driver was surprised how fast he gave me keys to van. If anyone looking to do same in future or want somewhere sos reliable never a problem and guaranteed then I would go there one best border run routes
