Even when many people keep on telling the Thai Immigration rules changes daily, it does not make there B/S a true story. You can ask next week again to get the same answers as you got last week

I believe you have to have a minimum of 800,000 baht in your account for the two months before you apply for your next extension of stay. A minimum of 800,000 for the 3 months after you get your extension of stay and a minimum of 400,000 thereafter. Once you start this you can’t let the balance fall below the minimums. You have some time before you have to do this but not a lot of time.

You should have no problem, only 2 months seasoning required before applying. But as Tod would recommend, why not get the OA visa in the UK?
