I applied for a 60 day tourist visa in KL, but failed to pick it up today. My flight leaves tomorrow 7am. Is there anything I can do? am I doomed for a 30day stamp on arrival? Has anyone been in this situation before?

TLDR : Answer Summary
A user faced a situation where they applied for a 60-day tourist visa in Kuala Lumpur but missed the pickup before their flight. They expressed concern about being forced to take a 30-day stamp on arrival in Thailand. Comments from others highlighted the importance of picking up the visa on time, as failing to do so may lead to cancellation. Suggestions included picking it up immediately, changing flight plans, and checking for options if the pickup was missed.
No passport, hence no flight back. Enjoying my weekend in KL. On Monday I'll pick up my passport, with or without the visa, I don't care anymore and then flying out on Tuesday. Most expensive visa run in my life.
The very short version is you won't be catching your flight as you lack your passport. I'd be looking at changing your flight urgently or if you can't - book a new one.
Normally if you apply for a Visa you have to leave your passport at the Embassy, so they can put in the Visa sticker. If you did not picked it up how you travel without a passport?
