Getting a Thai SETV (single entry tourist visa) in Singapore. I've heard rumors that they're very strict there? 

Anyone got recent experience with it?

Would the usual be enough: flight in & out, proof of accommodation and bank statement.

TLDR : Answer Summary

The process for applying for a Thai SETV (Single Entry Tourist Visa) in Singapore involves an online application, followed by submission of hard copies at the Thai Embassy. Recent feedback suggests that documents like flights, accommodation proof, and bank statements are generally sufficient, but applicants may be requested to provide additional documentation if needed. Rumors about strictness should be approached cautiously, as the procedure is outlined on the embassy's website, and following the guidelines is crucial to avoid issues.

As all the information is given and even more information about what you need to work inside Thailand, it is time to stop the discussion. We are guests in this country, best is to follow their rules or face the consequences when our host finds out you don't.

If submitted documents are not enough, they would tell you what else you need to submit on the system. You MIGHT need cover letter. Not sure for SETV, they requested for Non B, They don't mention about this cover letter in requirements documents list in their website)

Hope not. I just don't know.

When I googled, in some other area in the world from around here, I saw some Thai embassies/consulates request cover letter for SETV. That's why I mentioned just in case.

Anyway they would tell to applicant if they request.

No, Singapore has an online application method. Fill this in, when approved you visit the Embassy, deliver your hard copies and pick up the visa the next working day
