TLDR : Answer Summary

The easiest and fastest way to get a new 60-day stamp on your METV from Bangkok is to do a border bounce. Many recommend using the Phu Nam Ron / Htee Kee border. As a British citizen, you should not have any issues at this border. You have the option to go on your own or use a service like thaivisaservice.com, which operates there daily. Alternatively, you can consider booking a same-day flight with an airline like Air Asia for this purpose.

You shouldn't have any problem bouncing out and back at the Phu Nam Ron / Htee Kee border as a brit with a 6 month METV in your passport.

You can either wing it yourself OR you can use the company

I’m asking for my Canadian buddy. He’s wants to be here for three months. He’s on a 30-day visa exempt right now, then he will get an extension at Immigration, and after he’s like to bounce out that border you’re referring to above. To the best of your knowledge is that a safe ish bounce place..?
