What was your experience getting a visa extension in Thailand?

The deal is a simple one. Only people at the extremities contribute. Many, many expats settle down to a balanced view. Thailand is not a place of milk and honey only to be viewed through very rosy specs, or not even requiring them for some expats. Equally, is this the worst place on the planet, or anything like the worst place on the planet-determinedly not. As to people, there are nice Thais and there are unpleasant Thais. A bit like every other country on the planet. Worth remembering too that if some issues tend to turn the balance negative, sometimes very negative, they don't often apply to expats eg domestic violence.
